Has anyone been able to get the Google Maps to work with PHPR 5.2?
I setup the Map Key, lat & lng and one of the fields was set to MAP, however, I cannot seem to get a map to actually load.

Bonjour
Extremely interested by this new feature.

I'd implemented that last year in my "drupal" website,

not easy (!!),

And all datas are first "keyboarded" and used in a first website (in phprunner),

I have to rebuild all in drupal ("double work", and extend of the drup'database)...
So it 'll be great to only have to .... implement that page in drupal...

(that's an another topic of this forum!).
I tried the widget, and it's work (on a local site) but only with lat & long.

The "widget" seemed to not recognized "French" address.
I don't find the way to got the "general map" (compiling of the gmaps)you have at the top

of the demo page.
Also ONLY ONE (type of) marker (unable to "highlight" with some diff markers).
And what's the diff beetween the 2 kinds of gmaps:

  1. in "wiew as" / "map"
  2. the "right click" / insert / google map (OnScreen event)
    I tried to firebug the source of the demo page, but... unable to see how to.
    Could we have a little tutor (how to...)
    Kjp
    PS: only FOUR days left on my beta...

Hi, Kjp,

first, I can confirm that German addresses are also not decoded properly, only lat/long works.
Second, with the "general map" you mean one map with markers for all the records in your database? Like this one? If so, this is how I did it:

  • go to "Visual Editor" of your "List page"
  • click on "Insert code...", choose "Insert Google Map" and fill in your data
  • place it on the very top (like: right after "header")
    In my test, I deleteted everything else on that list page, because otherwise you get all individual records below the map, as well.
    If you click on a marker, you get to the "view page".
    Greetings,

    Wilfried
    P.S.: @Support: is there a way to set the zoom factor of the map? (On the "view page" of an individual record, I would like to zoom in to have more of a closeup of the map ...)

Thks Wrjost for the help.
I tried this way, but on a modified "test-table" of 400 records

with only 5 or 6 with "lat & long" filled!

Themap was empty...
just a query's modify to select only "lat/long" filled, and all is ok.
Result is "fine".

It's a beginning...
Needs??

  • several markers (to distinguish some categories...) and perhaps put our own markers?
  • display the "location's title" in a "bubble" on the mouseover...
    Below , that's what I got in "drupal", but obliged to rebuild all nodes

    with datas EXISTING in my "phpr website"!


There are some files concerning gmaps in drupal's modules
