Hi! Thank you for your interest in the generator. The app will only generate HTML and Javascript to display the maps. It doesn’t include any option to connect to a database or perform mySQL queries. You can however modify the code the generator gives you, to include a database call and populate the map from there. The maps are generated using the Google Geochart API, so the heavy work is done by Google. The generator only makes it easier to get the code needed. Greetings, Carlos

Hi! You can purchase the WP version and ask for a refund of the non-WP version. Greetings, Carlos

jQuery.fancybox(
{
type: 'image',
href: ivalue[selectedRegion]
});

Hi! Thank you for your interest in the plugin.

1) There is a simple zoom feature, but it has limitations. For example, it doesn’t have a mouse-wheel zoom action. You can try it here.

2) The data for small countries is rendered, but is some cases, like Andorra, the country will be too small to display, even with the zoom, since the zoom doesn’t go into such detail. Usually I recommend users to add a marker to smaller locations that they need to be clickable.

3) At this moment it is not possible to create routs or paths.

If you have any other question let me know. Greetings, Carlos

Hi! Thank you for your interest in the generator! You would need to purchase the Extended License, since you would be monetizing from the app. Extended license seems to allow this. If you have any other question let me know. Greetings, Carlos

Hi! Thank you for using the generator! The markers might not be displaying on mobile because they may be taking longer to load. My advice would be to use the coordinates mode, using coordinates for the markers ‘region code’ instead of the name of the location. Using coordinates will speed up the loading of the markers. To have a URL open when you click a marker make sure to also have the ‘active region action’ set to ‘open new url’, which will add the necessary code to open the url. If you share the link to the page where you have the code I can check if there’s anything else that could be improved. Greetings, Carlos

Hi! Check if this information helps: https://codecanyon.net/item/interactive-world-maps/2874264/faqs/17881 Did you follow those steps of activation also? Greetings, Carlos

Hi! Thank you for using the generator. Unfortunately it is not possible to create custom regions, and the generator doesn’t have a map with North and South California divided. The only workaround would be to use the ‘Metropolitan areas’ map, and use work with the available DMA regions. Hope the info helps and I’m sorry for this limitation. Greetings, Carlos

Is there a way to have only California using Metro Areas and the rest of the map using states? Or can I somehow use my own SVG file with my own points?

Unfortunately this is not possible. The maps are generated using the Google Geochart API, which doesn’t allow us to do this. And since the generator relies only on the Geochart API it is also not possible to use custom maps. Sorry for this limitation.

Hi! Thank you for your interest in the generator. The generator version is not able to do this, but with the WordPress version yes: http://cmoreira.net/interactive-world-maps-demo/advanced-tips/overlay-maps-regions-map-markers-text-labels/ This is done by creating 2 maps and overlaying them with css. But the generator is not able to do this operation, it would need to be done manually. Greetings, Carlos

The Geochart API doesn’t provide options to manipulate the viewport unfortunately. However, in the WordPress version, below the map preview in the administration, you can find the ‘Custom CSS Generator’ options. You can manipulate the fake zoom values to manipulate the viewport a bit. Hope it helps. Greetings, Carlos

jQuery.popmake(
{
content: value
});

The ‘value’ variable will automatically fetch the content you place in the action value for each entry of the map. Hope it helps! Greetings, Carlos

I figured about a really easy way to do this. I set the action value to none, then I found the CSS path to each circle in the map, copied it and set it in the popup maker css trigger box. Kind of a hack, but a really effective one.

Glad you managed to find a solution! Cheers, Carlos

Hi! Thank you for using the generator. Might be a small error on the output. Can you write me a message via the contact form on the support tab and share your output code or the current settings code? Greetings, Carlos

Hi Rob. You can either use the regions mode or markers mode to specify the colours of markers or the countries. Unfortunately in the generator version it is not possible to combine both modes. There are some solutions involving CSS, but they are not ‘future proof’ (the API can be updated and some selectors might change). But if you send me a message using the contact form on the support tab, sharing the link to your map, I can give an example of how this would work. Greetings, Carlos

Hi carlos,

I have sent you an email but I never received an anser?

The issue is quite urgent, so I would be gratful so get informtations how to achieve the styling asap.

Thanks in advance for your support.

Regards,

Rob van Linda

Hi Rob! I answered your message a couple of days ago to the email ‘hello at weblab.berlin’. But I see today you mentioned a new email. I sent a copy of my answer to this new email. Greetings, Carlos

Hi! Thank you for your interest in the generator. It is only possible to use the maps already available, since they are generated with the Google Geochart API, which doesn’t have the option to use custom maps. So it is not possible to create custom borders, and there’s only the map of full Canada available. I’m sorry for this limitation. If you have any other question let me know. Greetings, Carlos

Hi Carlos, Thanks for your fast reply – it helped in the fiddle, but still wont work on my site – please check http://vinas.dk/roedvin and check the source of the site and search for “http://www.google.com/jsapi” – here you can see where i included the code in <head>. The is located right below the images listing the countries on the page – but no map shows up here. What am i doing wrong?

The is

Hi! Thank you for using the Generator. The code uses the Google Geochart API to generate the maps, which follow the United Nations Statistics Hierarchy listed here http://unstats.un.org/unsd/methods/m49/m49regin.htm which places Greenland in North America. The solution would be to use the country resolution and colour each country individually. Since the API provides the maps this way, we can’t do much. I’m sorry for this limitation. Greetings, Carlos

Hi Carlos, thanks for your ultraspeedy response With the standalone version there is no way to make it more responsive than it is? Is there a huge overhead with the plugin? thanks, Koen.

The standalone maps to be more responsive would need extra javascript code, to ‘listen’ to screen changes and redraw the map. But at that point it would be better to have the WP version, that already has this. The WP version creates an extra table in the database to store the map data but I wouldn’t say the plugin is heavy. Consider that the maps load from a Google API, and the plugin only outputs/loads some light javascript code and css.

Thanks Carlos! Been busy for the last couple of days, as soon as I have time I will get into this.

Hi! Thank you for using the generator. The maps are generated using the Google Geochart API, which doesn’t include maps for individual spanish provinces, just the full map of Spain. So it is not possible to have a map focused on Mallorca aline. I’m sorry for this limitation. If you have any other question let me know. Greetings, Carlos

Hi! Thank you for using the plugin. If you leave the width and height values empty, the map will load with the maximum space available. Check if it works. Greetings, Carlos
