    Hello, great work !

    I have some problems with personal icons,and the contents of the infowindow

    I’ve read the 11 pages of this topic, and try differents things to get custom icon, it don’t work for me

    this is my snippet (based on 1.0):

    [tt]<?php
    /* Snippet name: [[GoogleMapMarker]]
    * Version: 1.0c for ditto v2+
    * Author: doze <[email protected]>
    *
    * Snippet to generate goolemaps map and place markers
    * to the maps from documents.
    *
    * Installation:
    * -------------
    * 1. Create a snippet "phx:slashandstrip" with this content:
    * return addcslashes(preg_replace("~([\n\r\t\s]+)~"," ",$output), "’");
    *
    * 2. Call the snippet in some document: [[GoogleMapMarker? &apikey=`ABQIA..`]]
    *
    * How to place markers:
    * ---------------------
    * 1. Create a folder in MODx manager what will keep the marker documents, can be unpublished.
    * 2. Create a new document inside that folder what will be the marker
    * - Title: Will be used as the marker "sidelink" text (example: My home)
    * - Description: The coordinates for the marker (example: 63.098332,23.056698)
    * - Document content: HTML to show in the marker popup.
    * NOTE: You have to escape all ’ characters by putting backslash before them, e.g. \’
    * 3. Add the &startID parameter to the snippet call pointing to the folder what has the marker documents
    * example: [[GoogleMapMarker? &apikey=`ABQIA..` &startID=`52`]]
    *
    * Example GoogleMapMarker template chunk (&tpl)
    * ---------------------------------------------
    * The template must have 2 divs. A div for the map and div for the side links. That’s it.
    *
    * <div id="map" style="float:left; width: 350px; height: 350px;">Loading map...</div>
    * <div id="maplinks" style="margin-left: 10px; padding-right: 10px; float: left; display: block; height: 350px; overflow: auto;"></div>
    *

    I use 3 custom tv’s (address, website,photo), they are visible in the marker pages, but not in the infowindows. only base install tv’s are visible (e.g. pagetitle).

    what is the use of ditto, for a simple map like mine ? where will I paste the ditto call ?

    Thanks

      Hi,

      Great work with the GoogleMapMarker smiley. I just have a question about the markers - is it possible to define them as a parameter in the snippet call just how we write down the initial center position of the map? I’m looking into making TVs that will have the title, description, and X and Y coordinates on my documents rather than putting them in a separate folder. Is this possible?

      Cheers,
      Les
