Is there any modul for CCK GMap field with map widget?

petiar - September 19, 2008 - 06:45

Hi everybody,

I've been looking for a GMap module but I am a bit confused by all the GMap, Location, Mapedelic, etc... modules. What I need is a simple GMap CCK field with map widget, so the user can specify location by clicking on the map when creating a node. Is there anything like this anywhere?

Thanks a lot.
Petiar.

Hi Petiar,

We are probably going to build something like this, if you would like to contribute in any way.

Hi,

thanks for the answer. I have been trying to create sth. like that but I have no experience with javascript. Anyway, there are some examples on Google Maps API website and as far as i remember the point was to display a clickable map within a form and clicks on the map actually updated some hidden fields with longitude/latidue/zoom, etc. These information has been stored when the form was submitted.

I am not sure of your specific need. But in the newest location module version you can use Location CCK, and just twiddle it down to a map with lat, long.

This sounds like thing that we need, but it doesn't work... there is a bug either in location or gmap.. - http://drupal.org/node/347091
