Get Locations will provide a Google maps API version 3 enabled map on which to display markers of locations found in location-enabled content-types.
These can be displayed per node, eg "/getlocations/node/xxx" will display all the locations associated with that node. They can also be displayed per content-type, so if your content-type has a machine name 'venue' you can show them all with "/getlocations/type/venue".
The Drupal 6 version also supports paths like "/getlocations/user/xxx" and "/getlocations/users" for location-enabled users. These links have their own access permissions so control can be exercised on a per role basis.
This has not been applied to Drupal 7 as location-enabled users doesn't work AFAICT.
See the README.txt for more information on what getlocations can do
Get Locations has the option to use the Infobubble and Markermanager Javascript Libraries for Version 3 of Google maps. There are also options for how multiple markers are displayed and switches for trafficInfo, bicycleInfo, panoramio, Transit Points and Points of Interest layers.
Requirements:
The Location module (6.x only)
The Libraries module
Recommended:
The Views module. Getlocations 6.x-1.x uses Views 2, 6.x-2.x and 7.x-1.x use Views 3
Important:
Please read and follow the instructions in README.txt. You need to do this to get markers working.
You can download markers from Dropbox:
As tarballs:
getlocations-markers.tar.gz
getlocations-markers-extra.tar.gz
getlocations-markers-various.tar.gz
getlocations-markers-restaurants-bars.tar.gz
As zipfiles:
getlocations-markers.zip
getlocations-markers-extra.zip
getlocations-markers-various.zip
getlocations-markers-restaurants-bars.zip
There are lots of icons at mapicons.nicolasmollet.com
You can use the tools at powerhut.co.uk to provide you with information to make your own ini files and icon sets.
The 6.x-2.x series supports Views 3 but is the same in all other respects.
Development has some new features:
- Configurable Infobubble styling
- Configurable Javascript paths for Infobubble and markermanager
- Support for multiple maps on a page
- Marker action can be either click or hover, configurable globally and per map
- Automatic HTTPS support
Getlocations has support for MarkerClustererPlus as an alternative to MarkerManager
7.x Development includes a new submodule Getlocations_fields which can be used instead of location and location_node or location_cck.
Getlocations_fields can add an address and map to these content types:
- node
- user with or without profile2
- term
- comment
There can be more than one input map.
There is some basic Views support, no doubt this will improve over time.
All geocoding is done clientside, before the page is submitted. There are two methods available, either with Google Places Autocomplete or without.
Support for Smart IP module added.
There are two new submodules, Getlocations Feeds which provides some basic support for the Feeds module and Getlocations Location Taxonomize which supports Location Taxonomize. These modules are still very much under development.
7.x Development now includes basic support for Geofield / Addressfield enabled nodes.
Please note
Do not install the Location module at the same time as Getlocations_fields, this will not work.
If you are upgrading from an earlier version of dev make sure you go to admin/config and save the settings as there may be new features added. Flushing the cache is probably also a good idea.
