Description
The weight select to make the gmap edit form appear lower in the content creation form do not work. Now the Gmap edit part is sitting right on top of my node creation form before the name even and I cannot get it to move down. It also sits on top of my completed node and I cannot move that down either.
#1
The Gmap module from what I've heard is suppose to inform cck about itself so that when working with the cck interface that the option is there to move the map and collection boxes up or down in the list. Now it is on top of the node creation form even before the title.
Please inform me of how to fix this.
This is what someone wrote to me:
Once CCK is installed, it takes over the weights of all top level elements in the node edit form (and node view). But CCK cannot guess these extra elements by itself. Modules need to tell this information to CCK using hook_content_extra_fields($type_name).

Can someone help me please?

I'm a little confused on your Q.
rc1 seems to have weights only -10 to 10, which is somewhat limited at this point (I'm trying to patch now, if I don't find that someone else has fixed). Otherwise, it seems to interact normally with cck etc., that is, I don't observe the behaviors you seem to describe. Please clarify, or perhaps try a test setup (clean start, no other modules, basic theme).
Yours,
