Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_googlemap_stats - Textpattern Logs + Google Maps
I have installed the plugin and followed the directions setting up the cache directory but I am still having problems having the map even show up. The plugin is installed and active just not sure what the problem is….

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_googlemap_stats - Textpattern Logs + Google Maps
Version 0.2
A new version of the plugin is available. It no longer uses the Phoogle Maps class (although it was nice) but instead uses Google Maps XMLHttpRequest object a.k.a. XML and Asynchronous RPC a.k.a. AJAX. This should resolve the IE javascript issue.
The map will now load and you might notice a delay before the maps points are added while the IPs are being looked up.
If you used version 0.1, please pay attention to the differences in how to call the 2 plugin tags. There were several changes.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_googlemap_stats - Textpattern Logs + Google Maps
I have a question about the required cache/tmp directory; if you are using a hosting service and they only allow 755 and not 777 should the plug in still work. I installed version .1 and I could see that it was trying to map the ips cached but then the page would crash, when I tried version .2 the map loads but the ips don’t seem to cache. Any ideas, thanks in advance.

You would have to have write access to a directory in order for the cache to work. Can you upload images through TXP? If so I would expect for the cache to work if you set your temp directory to the same permissions.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_googlemap_stats - Textpattern Logs + Google Maps
Since installing the 0.2 version of this plugin I have been unable to get any stats to display. The map itself will display but there are no locations on the map and no chart displayed below. Using version 0.1 I was getting both the map and chart to display. My temp folder is set and writeable (should it be 666 or 777?). Here are the tags I am using:
In the head
<code><txp:rss_googlemap_stats_js showmaptype=“0” center=“0” showchart=“1” apikey=“XXXX” /></code>
In the body
<code><txp:rss_googlemap_stats refreshbutton=“0” width=“450” /></code>
Here is the example page.

Wow, that was a horribly dumb error. I seem to have left my URL hard coded in the plugin.
Try downloading 0.2 again and let me know if it works.

Now we’re rocking and rolling. That was an easy fix. It makes me wonder about the type of visits that show up – I’ve got places all over the map that I would never expect.

Cool. As for the worldly visitors, many of them aren’t people, just nasty bots scraping for email addresses.

The fix worked for me as well. Great work keep it rockin!
To follow up incase anyone was wondering about the permission set, 755 works fine with the plug-in if your hosting service does not allow 777.

I was wondering if that was the case.

I’m pretty ignorant in this area. Is 777 the preferred setting? Will 666 work?
