Is it possible to save thumbnail of map with location shown while selecting location ??
Hi Mark, works great now. Recommended
@Garard - glad you like it:)
@adoi - there is not need to save a thumbnail. I preume you want to show the map and a marker on the user's profile? All you have to do is load google map and pass through the text location, or longitude/latitude and zoom level. There should be plugins here that do that
Hello, is this working also with the event calendar location field ?
I haven't used event calendar. It can easily be modified to work with it though. Just change input name in event calendar to "location" (check code in my plugin, I think javascript looks for input with name "location", havent looked at code for ages)
Is it possible to add this to an already set up profile manager that already has custom fields defined?
im not near my laptop but, as far as I remember, the location input needs to have the name 'location'. So as long as you give location field that name, it should suggest locations
Awesome, thanks Mark!
great! recommended
No problem Matt:-)
I'm using the default profile, it gone when I add a custom field..
this doesnt work if:
Profile Manager / Settings
Edit Profile Section: How to show the 'edit profile' screen = Tabbed.
Worked if the Show Option is List. Any fixes for this?
Elgg guru's, any suggestions here?? Am new to Elgg with just 3 weeks into it...
@A N - the name of the field needs to be "location" so just make sure it is by inspecting with firebug. Also, make sure the javascript file is being called, I suspect it's not...
@Mark, making it work is not a problem. However, none of the fields show up at all in the edit profile case if... Profile Manager is enabled and ...
in the "Settings" section, go to
Edit Profile Section: How to show the 'edit profile' screen = Tabbed.
It works beautifully if this setting is "List"
@A N - I dont think that is the problem. I set How to show the 'edit profile' screen = Tabbed and everything is working fine still in edit profile...
@Mark - thnx. I guess some other plugins are playing around with this one... Will investigate and if I am able to figure out, will post.
brilliant @Mark. thank you!
Mark, a suggestion. From what I see, you can use the default jquery-ui instead of the one you are using. Just use elgg_load_js('jquery'); in load_js file. It speeds up a bit
Great plugin, thanks Mark. Anyone have success in getting this location field to work with elgg groups? I am having trouble adding the field type 'location' to the groups.
Hi Gerard, can u throw more light on what to replace or add the elgg_load_js('jquery'); in the load_js file?? Am having problem with JS pop-up when this plugin is activated and i think that might solve the problem. Thank you!
When this plugin enabled profile manager Jquery gets conflict..
good
