Fix for the consequence of codechanges on Google Map API v.3.10 + v.3.11* (*experimental yet)
Note: API v.3.0.9 is now feature frozen, means stable. Merely the plugin developer must correct some things for v.3.10. So we use v.3.0.9 until things are fixed. Its like Firefox and his extensions compatibility.

Open

styles/prosilver/template/user_map.html

Find

Code: Select all

<!-- IF S_OVER_TRUE && (S_WEATHER || S_CLOUDS) -->
<script src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&libraries=weather" type="text/javascript"></script>
<!-- ELSE -->
<script src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false" type="text/javascript"></script>
<!-- ENDIF -->

Replace with

Code: Select all

<!-- IF S_OVER_TRUE && (S_WEATHER || S_CLOUDS) -->
<script src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&v=3.9&libraries=weather" type="text/javascript"></script>
<!-- ELSE -->
<script src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&v=3.9" type="text/javascript"></script>
<!-- ENDIF -->

optimizing some code

A little optimizing/fixing brings transitions effects in current 3.11 Map API.

It looks best in Google Chrome. Who wonder

So please..

open

styles/prosilver/template/user_map.html

Find and delete (2 times) &v=3.9

Also it brings better performance and fixes an Ajax Request Timing Error,
which dont break the engine nor js, but shows an error in firebug.

The v.0.9.0 package will be fixed soon.

------------------------------------------------

Edit: Dont forget, as explained in ModX,
to check out the user_weather/user_map_config.php.
Here you can do some customizings, eg. background colour etc.

Code: Select all

// Offline user colour (marker background)
$off_colour = 'CCCCFF';
// Enter HEX code without #

// Online  user colour (marker background)
$onl_colour = '99CC99';
// Enter HEX code without #

// Hidden  user colour (marker background)
$hid_colour = 'FFCCFF';
// Enter HEX code without #

More styling tips and instructions for the Maps Look and Feel comes in the next future.
