Hello and thank you for making this module available!

I was wondering if somebody could help me with this little problem:

I'm trying to enable the map view in the Exhibit settings, and i've done everything necessary to install the module, only the Exhibit Extensions settings just won't appear. I've done it in another Drupal module, but that one is also not giving me the option any more (it was enabled before so it works there).

I'm on Drupal 6.15 and using the Exhibit 6.x-1.0-Beta1 in combination with the Gmap/Location module.

I don't know if the problem i'm having is a bug or if i'm doing something wrong...

I've attached a screenshot.

Thank you for your help in advance!

Update:

I've installed various Drupal installations (6.14 & 6.15 with and without various modules) to try the module, but with all it won't work.

I added these values to the MySql database and now the map view works:

('exhibit_extensions_barchart', 'i:1;'),
('exhibit_extensions_barchart_api', 's:79:"http://api.simile-widgets.org/exhibit/2.2.0/extensions/chart/chart-extension.js";'),
('exhibit_extensions_calendar', 'i:1;'),
('exhibit_extensions_calendar_api', 's:85:"http://api.simile-widgets.org/exhibit/2.2.0/extensions/calendar/calendar-extension.js";'),
('exhibit_extensions_map', 'i:1;'),
('exhibit_extensions_map_api', 's:75:"http://api.simile-widgets.org/exhibit/2.2.0/extensions/map/map-extension.js";'),
('exhibit_extensions_scatterplot', 'i:1;'),
('exhibit_extensions_scatterplot_api', 's:79:"http://api.simile-widgets.org/exhibit/2.2.0/extensions/chart/chart-extension.js";'),
('exhibit_extensions_timeline', 'i:1;'),
('exhibit_extensions_timeline_api', 's:77:"http://api.simile-widgets.org/exhibit/2.2.0/extensions/time/time-extension.js";'),
('exhibit_gmap_key', 's:86:"";');

But it's strange that i still don't get these settings in Drupal while i used to get them.

I see exactly the same thing. It's been working fine for almost a year and then stopped displaying the extensions settings when I updated to Drupal 6.16. Maybe it's related to the theme? I'm using Analytic.

I'm using a Zen sub theme. I've tried different installations and versions of Drupal with and without other themes and modules. I still don't know what the problem is. I've got it working now with these manual settings and it fine for me, it's just strange...

Same problem for me but I suspect mine isn't set up correctly: I'm currently pointing my API to http://api.simile-widgets.org/exhibit/2.2.0/exhibit-api.js. Because I don't see any option for extension, should I point this elsewhere? Or, do I download the various *.js for all of the extensions and load them in the Exhibit module folder (in exhibit/contrib)?

Please read http://drupal.org/node/721892#comment-2640190 (comment #1) and copy these settings to your Drupal database (i think it was in settings). Now you've manually selected the settings in the database instead of normal way.

Really happy to see the response, where do I go to paste the code? I'm new--I did look for a way to do this within Drupal.

Hi Charles and everyone else, thanks for the addt'l info, mapping works now... it still doesn't show up on the extension but I'm fine with that!

Hi at all,
I read code for settings and find a little error in code.
Now I can view all the extensions configuration.
Someone can test my patch? :)

bye bye .hachreak.
