Issue Summary
Hello,
I'm a newbie in the world of Google Maps API ;) and I have a few my basic questions about the way of displaying points on a map using CCK address Field :
- I just created a content type using a GMaps Address CCK field and I want to display the point from this field informations on a map. Do I create a special view or can I use a preconfigured block for that?
- This content type is using a taxonomy. How can I filter multiple points (or adresses) by this taxonomy on a map?
Maybe there is already a documentation for that but I can't find any link on the projet page.
Thanks for your answer.

This was a pain in the tush for me. You need to make sure that your CCK field on the Manage fields page in Address and Point, not just Address. Not sure why an address doesn't include a point in a mapping module, but, once you specify that you should be all set.
Also, if you're having trouble having the map display and just get a persistent "loading..." on the bottom of the field on your edit page, disable the bounds feature.
Good luck!
