Want to freshen up your site with something a bit different? Leaflet More Maps adds over 20 attractive map styles to your site via Leaflet, the lightweight mobile-friendly library for interactive maps and markers. At the flick of a drop-down and without you having to download any map provider code, you can insert beautiful maps from a variety of providers such as MapBox (top), Stamen (2nd image), Thunderforest (3rd), Esri (4th), Bing (bottom) and Yandex.Maps.
You can also enjoy Google Maps without downloading the Google Maps API! And that includes making the most of your high-res (Retina) displays. Read how the Lightness of Leaflet displays the brilliance of Google Maps in high-res.
Try this map demo, which is available through the included Leaflet Demo submodule for an instant showcase of all maps available on your system through Leaflet More Maps, including Google's high-res maps.
Usage
All available maps automatically show up in a drop-down list when:
- you format as a map a Geofield on a node or user (Leaflet module)
- you format as a map the output of a View (Leaflet and IP Geolocation Views and Maps modules)
Installation
Download and enable like any other Drupal module.
External libaries: none.
Configuration: none.
Permissions: none.
Dependencies: as the name suggests, you do need to enable the Leaflet module. This includes downloading the free Leaflet javascript library. The zip file contains a directory named dist. Drop this directory in sites/all/libraries/leaflet, so that the path to the essential javascript file becomes sites/all/libraries/leaflet/dist/leaflet.js and you're good to go. If in doubt check the Reports >> Status Report page to see if there's any errors.
Adding more maps
If you know of maps that you feel would be great to include in the Leaflet More Maps set, please let us know!
