Hi guys.
I want to create a field so that members can select their Geo locations on google maps. This field should contain the longitude and latitude (may be i need to create two fields?). But I don't know how can i create a new profile field. Please help!!
I'm using Elgg 1.9.x

You must log in to post replies.Go with elgg_profile_fields_setup() under library file.
the was a plugin for Elgg 1.6 to do this. It hasn't been updated to Elgg 1.8/1.9, but maybe if you ask de developer ;)

You can try this plugin @ https://community.elgg.org/plugins/875151/1.1/google-maps-widget-for-18x also. It does reverse geocoding of the user location.
To add profile fields you nedd just to use "Admistration / Appearance / Edit profile" tool in Elgg 1.9 core.
