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.
#5
I put the screenschots in File attachments, I hope that this is clear?
The cck-field does not appear on my screen. (screen1.jpg)
Thanks in advance!

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?
