Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_google_map - display articles on google maps

This is (ORPHAN)???
Noooooooooooooo

Sucks, such a usefull plugin! we use it everyday here at work in one of our sites dedicated to Restaurants and things to do around the city, the people publishing content wouldnt know how to do it any other way!

Anyone interested in taking this over?

there is a lot of cool things we could do with this plugin.

Directions in the Maps API v3 for example, etc etc etc…..

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_google_map - display articles on google maps

My plugin isn’t related to this one although they make great companions.

I’ve thought about updating this plugin to use the Google Geocoding API and release my own version of it but I haven’t had time.

Thanks Matt, that’s working fine for me along with your excellent msd_google_map plugin.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_google_map - display articles on google maps

UPDATE: the below code is working, there was a problem elsewhere that was causing it not to work.

I have the latitude and longitude stored in custom fields using the msd_google_map plugin
I have a form with a conditional that will output the map if the lat and long custom
fields have a value and will use the values in them as the latitude and longitude however it’s not working,
any help would be much appreciated, heres what I have

<txp:rss_google_map lat='<txp:custom_field name="lat" />' long='<txp:custom_field name="long" />' zoom="2" />

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_google_map - display articles on google maps

<txp:rss_google_map  lat="<txp:custom_field name="lat" />"  long="<txp:custom_field name="long" />"  zoom="2" controltype="large" iconcolor="green"/>

Try that

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_google_map - display articles on google maps

I asked this question before, but got no answer, has someone been able to use custom icons in the maps using this plugin?
thanks!

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_google_map - display articles on google maps

Hi!
I know this is an ORPHAN plugin, and the last post was 3 years ago, but since Yesterday, Google has made changes to Google maps, and this plugin doesnt work at all…
Hopefully there is someone still using it and can point me ut how to upgrade it to use Google maps V3 instead of V2

Thanks!

I still have my planned version in the works, I use it for my own site but it is extremely limited in scope. I plan on spending some time with it over the Christmas break when the days are shorter and its tool cold to go outside anyway.
