Sef, regarding the vazco_gmap plugin:
- if you have any questions related to the plugin, please feel free to ask via PM, on plugin groups or on Elggdev. I will try to answer questions on this post as well.
- what I can see is you didn't define location fields for user profile. Please set up fields with type location in forms plugin in order to make plugin work.
- google maps plugin you've displayed is not a part of vazco_gmap plugin, it's just google-map plugin. vazco_gmap displays location selector, user's map on profile and map of entities (last one on separate page).
- we've already rebuilt our plugin to work on profile_manager plugin instead of forms plugin, it gives some additional opportunities. Right now feature is in full version, but we plan to copy it to free version as well when we find time (I didn't know time is such limited resource untill I started implementing Elgg projects ;) ). This should greatly simplify plugin setup.
Once you configure the vazco_gmap plugin, you can have a really nice results. Some of them are listed below:
Mike, I appriciate your reply - thanks.
the features you directed me too look like a dreami. I've was playing with the geo positioning features for days, with no success. but your post gives me some extra courage to try again next week.
If I'll get some free time I'll post it to you - don't waste it infront of the screan get a nice cup of tea instead :')
btw, its the wierdest thing - google maps doesn't show the map nor satallite for Israel and the Palatinian authourity - the maps that are normally available on maps.google.com. this is true for the examples above too. Probably related with the google-map plugin.
Cheers
still no luck with geo-tagging
