J 1.6 -Map in article using plugin: marker does not appear

Post by Aldo Z »

Hi, I'm using Joomla 1.6.

I've got a map with 10 markers. I linked the map to a Menu link.

Now I have one article for each of the 10 places of the markers.

I'm creating a smaller map for each place, zooming in. --> 10 smaller maps.

If I use the plugin to insert one of the smaller maps in an article: I can see the map but I cannot see the marker.
This problem is the same even if I create another marker with coordinates very close to the original marker.

I notice that if I link the smaller map to a Menu voice it works, and I can see the marker. But in this way I find difficulties for managing the ACL.

Is it a bug? Am I doing something wrong?

hello Aldo,

I hope my answer will help you, so:

for each map from the 10th created you must create a new marker. The coordinates of this marker you take from the main map with copy/paste to respect the accuracy of the position.

I suggest you to pay attention when you create the marker to choose the proper map and when you write the plugin formula
to use the proper id for the map (Control panel Phoca Maps - Maps).
