Location Block Has No Markers

Same problem:

When i edit a map in a page node, and fill in a location, i can see on the map shown the marker on the right place, but when i save, the marker just dissapears. I'm looking for hours now, but can't find the problem. Everything seems to be set like i've read it. Does anyone know how i can solve this?

thx,

Could you provide a link to a node that has a location?

Do the nodes show up on the 'Node locations' page - www.mysite.org/map/node ?

ok, thx for your comment.

When i edit http://www.appartement-alda-javea-te-huur.be/node/15 i see the marker, but when i save it just dissapears. But i can see the marker that i edited in the node locations: http://www.appartement-alda-javea-te-huur.be/map/node. What can i do to make it show up in http://www.appartement-alda-javea-te-huur.be/node/15?

Thx,

sorry, in my comment above http://www.appartement-alda-javea-te-huur.be/node/15, should be http://www.appartement-alda-javea-te-huur.be/node/17.

How are you creating the map? Is it the node location block? or are you doing something custom in the theme?

I created the map with a Gmap macro, and then i added this in a page-node together with the lociation. When i edit this page, is see the marker, when i saved, it dissapears. 'till i find the problem, i now use the node location block, here the marker is shown.

I was having the same problem... in edit, the markers appeared fine, but in view, in the location block, the markers were not visible (even though the map was centered properly). I looked in the apache access logs and saw that the site was looking for the marker at a different locations (I'm not exactly certain why), but once I added this path to the markers, they now appear in the block (map) below the node.

@dpw & @BleuBiRTH:

Do you guys check the location table using phpmyadmin or mysql command line? If the latitude and longtitude fields are 0.000000, gmap module won't geocode for you.

I'm having the same problem, could you explain what you changed to make this work?

Thanks!

@zanhsieh, I don't believe this was my problem... the markers would simply not display but the maps were being positioned correctly.

To provide a little more explanation of my situation, I was upgrading my site from D5 to D6. As I was developing the new site, I noticed this problem with the markers not appearing... when I looked in the apache logs, the webserver was looking for the marker at the original website URI, not the development path. So I was able to go into the /sites/ folder and reproduce the path to the markers (which become the path once the new site went live). I couldn't figure out where this path was being stored because once I got it working, I had to move onto other pressing issues.

Actually it turns out my problem is with gmap field and not location... I'll post an issue there...

I've been researching this for hours, trying everything. I sense its something simple I'm missing, but...

I have the location block enabled for a node, and the map loads/centers fine. The marker shows in the node/edit page. No marker shows on the node page and the map control does not show. I have public files enabled. gmap_markers.js is located within files/js. flushed all caches. Stumped.

Closing this very old issue. Please reopen if it is still valid.
