Phoca Forum

Hello! I am new to the forums and have just started using Phoca Maps for my site.

I am attempting to set up a map on my Joomla site which automatically adds markers to a common map when a user creates an article, via PHP or script that takes the address provided in the submitted article and creates a marker. Before opening the plugin to find the marker creation code, I was wondering if others may have created a solution to achieve this task previously. With the limited documentation, there doesn't appear to be an API setup to access Phoca functions.

Any insight, as I get use to the system, would be welcome!

Thank you.

Hi, for now, I think, there is no such code or some guide to do this. For this you need to directly access the Phoca Maps database - the marker table. So in short, you can write some plugin which will be triggered when saving the article. Such plugin will prepare data and writes such data directly to database table of Phoca Maps (the markers table)

I had a feeling that would be the case. Thank you for the insight Jan. Guess I will go get to it!
