Hey again . In the latest newsletter I went over how to get the Google Maps with all your listings updated to version 2.0 of their API. Here's a link to the tutorial: http://www.interactivetools.com/products/realtymanager/tutorials/google_maps2.html Feel free to discuss or post questions about that in this forum thread ----------------------------------------------------------- Cheers, Ross Fairbairn - Product Specialist support@interactivetools.com

Ross, Thanks for the tutorial. I wanted to ask you if you can make an additional tutorial for putting google maps 2.0 on your publish listings pages. I basically want the map to display a point for only one listings. Is there a simple way to go about this? Thanks, David

I figured it out already. I just removed the code where it was referencing the list and replaced it with code for referencing only one listing. David

G'day, Can you pleas post the alternative code so that rather than all listings being shown on one map, each property show seperatly? ie. the link for /l0066.htm shows only that listing on the map. Thanks Croydon

Hi Croydon Thanks for posting! The template used for single listing pages is actually setup completely different so I am not exactly sure how it all goes together. What I have attached here though should be a good starting point. Basically, just find the line that says: map.setCenter(new GLatLng(49.19067925930702,-123.07159423828125), 9); and adjust those coordinates to be your starting location and zoom. Second, find this line: showAddress("Address Placeholders","Listings Details Go Here"); and put in the placeholders for each bit there. That should get you going but you may need to play around with it a bit . ----------------------------------------------------------- Cheers, Ross Fairbairn - Product Specialist support@interactivetools.com

Hi, Is it possible to use Google Maps for locating users instead of listings? We have brokers all over the country and it would be nice if customers could use the map to find a broker close home. Thanks, Jessica

Hi Jessica Thanks for posting! The nice thing here is that the _publish_homepage.html template is pretty much the same thing as _publish_listing.html so you should just be able to use the sample template in my post above and swap in the hfield placeholders for the lfield placeholders. How does that sound? Keep me up to date with how you are making out . ----------------------------------------------------------- Cheers, Ross Fairbairn - Product Specialist support@interactivetools.com

Hi, Does this have to be in an iframe or could you <body onLoad="loadMap()"> <div id="map" style="width: 700px; height: 600px"></div><br/> Have GREAT day! MikeF

Using _google_map2.html I am hoping to replace the showAddress function with one that allows me to create a point based on latitude / longitude inputs instead of an address input. Is there an existing function that will handle this, or can you advise me of a mod to _google_map2.html which will do this? Thanks, Jim Poor Richard Web Press, LLC Port Republic, Maryland

Hi Jim, You might want to have a look at this tutorial's predecessor, which was set up to use a longitude/latitude input instead of an address: http://www.interactivetools.com/products/realtymanager/tutorial_rm_google_maps.html Let us know if you need anything else! ----------------------------------------------------------- Cheers, Jake Swanson - Product Specialist support@interactivetools.com

I recently added this feature to my listings site and originally ran into an issue where the map wouldn't show up. Well after looking over the code some more I noticed the fields it was searching for the address in were different than my fields so I corrected that as well as the info to display in the popups, but the issue I am still having is when the map comes up it only displays 5 listings out of the 300 or so that I have. Any idea why that might happen? you can see what I am talking about here: http://gs.n-i.com/area-map-of-listings.html

Hi mattcason, I believe I followed up with you on this through email, but basically what's happened here is that Google has changed the way their code works for Google Maps, which has caused some problems with this tutorial. Mike posted some udpated instructions in this thread: http://www.interactivetools.com/iforum/Products_C2/Listings_Manager_Add-ons_F25/Tutorial%3A_Google_Maps_P46560/ Let us know if you need anything else. ----------------------------------------------------------- Cheers, Jake Swanson - Product Specialist support@interactivetools.com

I got your email and I tried the way that Mike lists to do it where it loads them with a delay and it does just that but it still only shows the 5 listings for some reason.
