How to display locations on a map?

posts: 3 Netherlands

Hi,

First let me say, I'm not a developer/programmer.
I use Tiki 9.6 LTS and have the map plugin enabled

I try to show two locations on a map (maybe more in the future).
For this I've created a tracker (id=2) with fields of the type location, checkbox and text and I filled it with the required location info

On a wikipage I call the map plugin and use the checkbox field wether a location is displayed or not:

Copy to clipboard
{MAP(scope="center" controls="overview" height="400" center="4.6,51.9,6")}{searchlayer tracker_id="2" type="trackeritem" content="y" maxRecords=4}{MAP}

(This shows a part of The Netherlands)

This is where I'm getting confused. It doesn't seem to work to get icons on the map.
Is there anybody who can pinpoint me in the right direction to get some icons on the map?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,

Dennis

Hi Marc,

Thanks for your reply. I went through the demo site and copied the "All geolocated objects from tracker 1 with PluginMap" settings but still no luck.
One difference I noticed was the popupstyle. I don't have that setting in 9.6 (or haven't activated it yet if it's plugin related ;-))

Is the field order of the tracker important? right now my first field is the location field.

Or could it be a permission thing? (I asume admin would see it)

When I use a list plugin and filter the same tracker, I get the location output though:

Copy to clipboard
{LIST()}{filter tracker_id="2"} {filter type="trackeritem"} {filter content="y"} {list max="4"} {LIST}


I'll keep on trying to figure it out. If anyone knows what to do to fix it, please let me know.

Thanks again.

Cheers,

Dennis

Hi All,

Still no joy with the map locations.
Anyone out there who can/want to help me troubleshoot this?

When browsing the site anonymously, I don't see the list output either, which pushed me in the permissions direction.
I've looked at the (and tried different) permissions for the trackers and wiki, but it wouldn't help.

Anyone knows which permissions should be set so the list plugin works on a wiki page?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,

Dennis
