jafar  - a Question   |213.6.236.xxx |2008-08-04 14:08:34 this is a great extension for Joomla but i have a question how can i post it in the front page in the bottom middle just beneath the news or articles there not on the left nor on the right thanks in advance best regards

DART  - Module placement   |Registered |2008-08-04 17:19:56 Hi jafar, the position where you put the map depends only on the template you are using. You need to assign the module to a template position which corresponds to the area you want.

Jafar  - Position   |213.6.251.xxx |2008-08-04 22:21:25 i am using the default template of Joomla, and i saw a demo for this extension where the map is displayed beneath the news in the front page, so i am wondering what is that position name. thanks in advance

DART  - Position   |Registered |2008-08-05 05:32:34 Jafar, the position used in the demo is the footer position.

Kevin  - Initial settings   |194.213.214.xxx |2008-08-05 10:32:08 Hi, can you tell me how to set a particular initial zoom level, and centre of map focus? How did you achieve this with regards to your screen shots? Regards.

Jafar  - To Dart   |213.6.221.xxx |2008-08-05 19:07:39 Thanks a lot Dart, this is what i was searching for

dchewus  - Not showing up   |Registered |2008-08-25 23:03:09 is there a reason why users won't show up on the map? i'm asking my friends to visit the site to test -

DART  - Users showing up   |SAdministrator |2008-08-26 05:31:49 dchewus, give them a day or two ... they will show up soon.

rockandwater  - Button image   |Registered |2008-08-30 09:56:03 I like to know how i can take the image button out from the bottom, actually the image does not display correctly, i see a box and inside is "Joomla visitor map", can you help me? Thnaks

DART  - Button image   |SAdministrator |2008-08-30 13:43:31 We've published a new version which removes the image link.

rockandwater  - My version of Google visitor m   |Registered |2008-08-30 19:08:39 I downloaded my version from this page above, is that a latest version? Or do you have another link to the new version? Thank you for all you do for this joomla comunity. Oscar

DART  - Latest version   |SAdministrator |2008-08-31 06:37:32 Oscar, the new version replaced the older version with the image in the Downloads section. If you downloaded it again after our comment, you should have the latest version.

explorien86  - users   |Registered |2008-09-02 19:20:18 I was wondering, do the visitors need to be registered to the website to be pinned? I've had the module running for a few days now and only have two pins while a lot of unregistered users have visited the site.

varma  - Blank page after publishing   |Registered |2008-09-03 03:39:32 I published this module and configured the API that i was using for gmaps. The next moment my home page is turned to blank I unpublished and my site up again. Could you please let me know if there is any known issue. I love to have this module on my website

DART  - Blank Page   |SAdministrator |2008-09-03 06:03:12 Varma, please get in touch via Contact Us with address and possibly admin access so that we may troubleshoot.

DART  - Markers   |SAdministrator |2008-09-03 06:07:37 ... do take a bit of time to start showing up. It is important that your server has access to the URL http://api.hostip.info since this is used to determine the coorodinates of the current user.

explorien86  - markers   |Registered |2008-09-04 01:11:58 Dart; The http://api.hostip.info URL works perfectly for myself, (and on the visitor map too) but for one of my testers the URL doesnt show any info at all on where they are located, is there a firewall/routing issue there? glitch? Thanks

DART  - Markers   |SAdministrator |2008-09-04 06:24:21 If its works on the server which hosts the Joomla site, then it should show up fine. If the IP does not produce any location info, it won't show up on the visitor map

kuro54ki  - Great   |Registered |2008-09-22 13:05:12 Thanks dart.... This iss a great module.. I'm just finished intall it at my site...

bphupscher  - error message   |Registered |2008-10-07 15:34:32 Notice: Undefined variable: markers in /home/(my username)/domains/my site/public_html/modules/mod_j15visitormap/mod_j15 visitormap.php on line 111 Hi, the module works fine, yet an error message is displayed above the map. Hope you have an answer, greetings Bernhard

DART  - Error message   |SAdministrator |2008-10-07 17:38:55 This is just a warning. You should disable PHP warnings on your website, by putting: display_errors = Off in your php.ini file

Bernhard  - Error message   |212.45.32.xxx |2008-10-08 10:05:04 Hi, If it is just a warning and I don;t have access to php.ini... ...I inserted the line: error_reporting(0); into mod_j15visitormap.php That solves it too! Thanks, Bernhard

DART  - Error message   |SAdministrator |2008-10-08 11:39:21 Excellent, good to know you're sorted.

vickis  - New feature is fantastic!!   |Registered |2008-10-21 19:03:43 Joomla Visitor Map was great already, but with the added parameters of latitude, longitude and zoom it's even better, especially for those who are not [yet] looking at the world for their custom. Many thanks for an excellent and easy to use product!

indiobestia  - Problem Joomla 1.5   |71.133.125.xxx |2009-01-15 23:56:34 I don't know if it is a known issue or something, but I installed the module and where ever I publish it, that whole page does not display I have my API key for the site, my longitude and latitude and everything, but it does not give me any error, just does not displays a blank page. Have you heard about something like this before? Thanks.

DART  - Does not display   |Administrator |2009-01-16 06:22:23 Noone has reported this before. Its probably throwing some kind of error, however unless you can see the error, its hard to determine what is really cuasing it

Anonymous   |83.4.192.xxx |2009-01-18 22:54:42 I got a problem

Darren  - Map of Registered Users     |140.247.26.xxx |2009-01-25 19:26:51 This module is great - is there a way to modify it so that registered users can enter their location, and then have the module display a map of the locations of all registered users? Thanks!

DART  - Feature Request   |Administrator |2009-01-26 13:56:08 Hi Darren, not at the moment. I suggest you enter this into the Feature Requests lists on our Forums,and this will hopefully be implemented in the future!
