Re:Hacking ME to get google maps to work (100% ??) 3 Months, 1 Week ago Karma: 0  
Hi there!

Is any updated GMapAPI.class.php available to download and correct the issue? (or any zipped patch file)

I have an idea to add coordinates to every property or object so the map knows where to go and custom pins so the map will know what to show.
Maybe someone else had the same idea, is there any?

Thanks for any help and BTW great component, congrats to the author, thumbz-up!

EDIT: forgot to say that GoogleMaps is a must-have, Map24 is not so great but occasionally it works.

Hi All

Finally got it to work.

Google map does not work with all the countries. it has only few supported ones.
First check if component is working on not. Try putting some location in Paris or somewhere else just to confirm
if it’s working on not.
if it’s working and your location is not working then follow following steps.

1) You have already updated the googlemap componnent.
You can download always the newest API version at: www.phpinsider.com/php/code/GoogleMapAPI/

2) You need to make sure you have extended template for misterestate. Its option in given some where in configuration in admin
Control panel for misteresate.

3) you need to edit the estateagent.php with following. Make sure you keep the backup of the file. And also use the phpeditor
to edit it.

step 1
//find the following line and disable it or remove it.
$gmap->addMarkerByAddress($address,"GMap Test","GMap Description";

step 2
//add the following lines.
QUOTE:
$geostuff = "$obj->district";
$gmap->addMarkerByAddress($geostuff , "This is a title", "<b>xxx</b>";

step 3
now you need to add the go coordinates for your location. use Google earth or maps to find exact coordinates you need.
And add the same in district. Example 25.079885,55.140252


I really wish this option was built into misteresate. i have not created this tweak. After looking very had into the forms i was finally able to get this thing working. Cheers to team. Great product.
