Hi There. How do I assign a specific marker to a content type? I see that when you reopened the project it stated that markers can be used and even custom markers. Do I need to use gmap's taxonomy markers, or does the taxonomy not determine the marker to be used. To assign a marker to a content type would be more than functional for me, maybe a select box on the content type page.
Thanks for all your hard work

Hi There. I managed to add different markers to my content type by enabling the gmap_location.module in (location) and assign 1 location but no location collection form. This enables me to select a marker for my content type under site configuration >> Gmap Location. (Under node markers - you will see a dropdown list for selecting a marker for your content type.) It gives an error when submitting the newly created node location, but there is a patch for that - allowing a return of empty values into the location database)
If it is possable to patch the gmap_location.module to not include the location module and only use it as a marker manager would be great.
