Please find the attached cck_gmapaddress module for drupal6.x.
I converted it from 5.x to 6.x. It's working for me.

Please use it and let me know if any issue.

Hi mandarmbhagwat78,
thanks for your work!

I had a short look on your module, couldn't test it at the moment. But I saw you still used it as a field. This I wanted not to do. Instead I'd like to see the module as an extra widget with extra formatters for Location (CCK). Besides supporting the macro builder of gmap.module would be the best scalable solution for a D6 release.

Are you planning on put more work in the module? If so please let me know, so we could work out some specifications, that could help you for future releases.

I am very interested in this module! I tried it out in drupal 6 but the GMap Address text field didn't appear on my website.

Thanks derhasi, I am already started working on making it as an extra widget with extra formatters for Location. I will update you on this very soon.

elbartoo - could you give me steps to reproduce the issue you are facing. If you can attach screen shots for each step that will be great.

Thanks derhasi for your appreciation.
Yes, I am planning to pur more work in the module. I just converted it as it was my project requirement.
If you can share specifications with me, I can start working on it.

General aim: Provide an easy to use (google) map widget for content

As I haven't had a look on the current state of gmap and location module in the last 3 months, I don't know the current state of cck field implementations.

Step 1) - Clearify current gmap, location, gmap addons and gmap field state.
Step 2) - Eventually build additional widgets for the most common cck field
Step 3) - Convert Fetch Module to use token module and/or PHP Filter

It's important to stay context independent, so only use cck 's widget functionallity to extend existing cck fields.

... Do you have any other proposals?

Maybe, joining GMap Addons would be a solution.

Currently cck_gmapaddress provide address cck field to link with gmap.
I suggest to provide widget for selection at the time of field creation like imagefield.
This will be easy and quick. Any suggestion?

We are having the exact same issues as @elbartoo

@mandarmbhagwat78 would you be willing to point us in the right direction as to why the cck field is not appearing and what is causing the error on the 'Rebuild Gmap Address Fetch' page?

Also is there any movement on the proposed plan to migrate this to a widget for 6.x?

I hope to find time to build an upgrade path in february, but can't promise anything.

I'd propose to build a D6 version, that builds on Geo Field and Geocode. What Do you think about it?

That good approach.
