Hi i am trying to install the map in the Tour Page… I am really bad at english and i dont understand how to do it whit the Places and the geocodes… Btw i speak french and thank you the theme is really nice.
Hi, in the themes folder there is the PDF manual of the Places plugin, please. Check it carefully. In the plug-in settings page you see the link to generate the API key for Google maps, the Google page explains you how to do there. Please don’t forget, after generating it, to ACTIVATE the API in Google’s panel.
Hi,
1. Can map be set to 100% height of parent div?
2. Can I use custom post type featured image or other cpt field image as maker image?
3. Can I edit the controls shown on the map? ie. disable zoom / scroll, etc
4. Can I disable POI on the map so ONLY my places are shown and not thousands of other default & irrelevant businesses?
5. Can the post title link be disabled or customised? So only info window pops up, no links to any pages.
1) no you can specify a fixed height for desktop and mobile thou 2) You can use any custom post type and custom taxonomy. The image is always the featured f the post 3) Yes 4) You can filter the results by taxonomy. Only the places added by you are listed in the map, there are no preloaded things so I think I don’t understand the question totally. 5) Not via options, you can CSS it
4. When viewing maps you usually get all the standard google POI (places of interest), can these be hidden. Because for example if I’m showcasing somebody’s restaurant chain the map will also show all the other restaurants in the area by google.
1. Why can’t the map be set to 100% height?
4. No this is a custom map there are no poi 1. Because Google maps only can work with given fixed height
Ok thx.
Hi, in default screen of places (left screen on https://prnt.sc/i7tx25) I can’t see zoom in/out, but if I close list of places on right side, the zoom in/out appears.
How I can add (show) zoom in/out on the default screen, please?
Hello! I’m sorry but you can’t, you can simply choose another design or set the map closed by default via shortcode parameters.
Thank you. I have the last question. If I clicked on place, close it after that map zoom out too much. I can see point like one stain (see there https://prnt.sc/i85g84).
Thnak you for help.
That’s the level calculated by google to show all markers, maybe you have one on the elft covered by the list?
Hi. No, there are no more points covered by list. I am sure. If I manualy zoom out a little but, there are zero points.
Ough 
Have a link please?
Here it is https://chailatte.sk/kaviarne-s-chailatte/. I just put it live.
SOrry for late reply, been investigating your issue, actually the fact is that the is no “dezoom” function linked to the venue closing action. This can be added as option to the shortcode, would it be good for you? Basically it would zoom out to the original level.
Hi, if there is anything what will help to friendly navigate thru places I will be happy and my visitors too 
.
Thanks for your kind collaboration, I think there won’t be difficulty, only a small time issue because we already had a tight schedule and there wasn’t a QT Places update in program, so i ask to please patient some days. Thanks
When I add it to the shortcode on the page it gives this error “QT Places Error: the selected post type doesn’t exists or is not active in the plugin settings.” OBS: I’ve already added a valid location.
you could have an empty parameter posstype. If you don’t need to specify a foreign post type, just delete the parameter. For security delete all the empty parameters that you don’t need to specify.
Hi, how to remove the “Get direction” link and text? Pls check to the screenshot: http://prntscr.com/i0jagd Thank you
Please check the support section of the manual. If you mean in the maps, you can customize the shortcode following the manual of QT Places included in the product package (is a PDF).
is there a jquery version of this plugin?
no i’m sorry
this supposed to be easy. Got this with on Air2. Ok all I want is to show a nice google map. Plugins enabled, added a place with address, then used shortcode. Post shows solid black square instead of map. When I use full shortcode with all the options, it tells me it selected post type doesn’t exist. I’m completely confused why it is not working. Again plugin activated, I added a place with address, so me associating it with this place it should create a nice map, nope not working
Hi, you are not adding the Google Maps API key. Please go in Settings > QT Places, click Get Api Key and create your own. READ GOOGLE DOCUMENTATION CAREFULLY to correctly set the google api key. Remember that you don’t have just to create the api key, but you ALSO have to enable it (white button in google “activate”).
I did and and even created new api for maps web java script and it is enabled. Still can not post it with full shortcode with options unless I use single short code and now it gives me oops error instead of map. Error: This page didn’t load Google Maps correctly. See the JavaScript console for technical details.
I’m sorry but it looks like your Envato user is not associated with a product license, please connect to the helpdesk and ask support via Support Forum to receive help with your question. Thanks
Hello, only one question. Is there a way to horizontally center a vertical image in the card that is shown on the map?
Thanks
Hello, I’m sorry but is made for a 16/9 image. If you want to change the appearance you have to add your own CSS
Hello, I would like to know if your plugin may it’s the best solution to our business. Can I make you some questions? I need one Wordpress plugin map that will provide one big list around the world with “coachs” with different professional levels. It’s an multi-language website so, the translation its very important too. (pt-BR, esp, Eng).
The markers it’s a filter that shows where they are available with their specific level.
Here’s the information necessary in every professional – popup
Name: Phone: Gender: Professional Level: (Dropdown List) [level 1, level 2, level 3] Description: E-mail Directions: Days and Time: 09:00 – 18.
Hello and thank you for the questions.
For the first part of your question, is exactly what the plugin is meant to do: you can create alist of coaches (or whatever) and display them in the map, also filtered by category, and in the map you can display the additional filters that can be used from the visitors to filter the results.
About the second part instead, the info available in the marker are the ones you see and it would require help from a WP developer to add the info you need and you don’t see in the demo (gender, professional level, .....) and we don’t have at the moment enough working power to provide this customization for you. For this, you would require to find a professional on Envato studio or anywhere else, I’m sorry.
Will your plugin work correctly if I have WordPress 4.8 and WooCommerce 3.0, please? If you are not sure, is it possible to get 15 day free trial, please?
OK. it works seems, but there are some issues .
#1 some points are not visible on the map, but they are still available in all places which I created. 1 hours before was everything ok, but after updates few new places, the old are hidden.
#2 How to make my list of cafes (names of pionts) alphabetically, please?
Thank you,
1) this can depend on your categories and filters, just check filter settings and the categories of the items of your list.
2) They re normally by “menu order” so the numeric attributes of each place, but you can edit the query by editing the code: in
wp-content/plugins/qt-places/inc/frontend/_shortcodes.php
line 63
you can change the ‘orderby’ to fit your needs
https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Order_.26_Orderby_ParametersHello, I think that removing all the empty parameters will fix your issue. Thanks!
I installed the plugin and if you look at this page when we click on an icon it does not open the window with the information.
And apart how do I make the map to full page width? Thank you
hello and thanks for contacting us, unfortunately this is not the right channel for tech help, as we are now providing support only via our helpdesk. Please visit: http://www.qantumthemes.com/helpdesk/forums/forum/qt-places/
Hi guys. We just set up a map and noticed that when you click a pin, it auto-zooms you out to a country-wide view, so you have to scroll back in a ways to look for another pin. Is this something we could change? https://agavevillas2.wpengine.com/map-search/
Hello! You need to edit the code:
wp-content/plugins/qt-places/inc/frontend/assets/script.js
edit line 192:
that.map.setZoom(5);
comment it with //
// that.map.setZoom(5);
Then, the plugin normally loads minified js for performance, so OR you minify this JS into min/script-min.js
OR
you edit frontend.php at line 49 and load the non minified version (replace min/script-min.js with script.js)
With a little tweaking can I use your plugin to work with users instead of posts? The users have a full google-type address that is saved within the profile (front-end profile editor https://snag.gy/g5pBFK.jpg ) and latitude & longitude ( seen by admin only https://snag.gy/JlC0yM.jpg )? I would like to use the get_user_meta() function to use the user’s profile image for the marker icon. Is this all doable? I am not a wordpress or php expert but I think that this should be doable by someone like me who is comfortable coding.
The links are screenshots of the profile editor. As seen by the admin and as seen by the user role “vendor” from his/her front-end editor.
Can I use a function like types_render_usermeta(“profile_picture”, array( “user_current” => true )); to render the image on the icon and similar functions to populate the other information dynamically? Information like… the link to the post or profile, for example?
Hello, i have no idea if can work, sorry
I love the way your maps plugin looks. How much would you charge to make your geo locations wordpress plugin work with my custom post type from the Dokan multi-vendor plugin which already has a street address field and zipcode field? I don’t want the vendors to have to enter the same address again or to have to enter latitude and longitude in order to appear on the map as a clickable icon that would link to the vendor’s profile?
Here is a screenshot of what the editor looks like for a vendor’s profile. https://snag.gy/lX6gAT.jpg"
I would like to have a search form on top of or under a map like airbnb.com but with only the address or zipcode fields.
hello! I’m sorry we don’t have enough people to work on such a big project now.
Hello! pre sale question. Can i show a gallery of 2 or 3 img for each item? I want this plugin for a customer who has a construction company, and want a map to show works in different cities of the countr, but will be interesting if we can show 2 or 3 img for each item. Regards!
Hello! I’m sorry there is no such function.
Does this plugin support multi-Site?
hi! No it doesn’t
Hello,
I bought your plugin but there is no place details in post and places. Please can you tell me why? I tried almost everything… Deactivate plugins, theme… It still doesnt work. The website is using wordpress 4.7.3.
Thank you very much
Hello, please try the following: when you go in Places, at the top of the Edit page of a single place, see if you have “Screen Options” and click it. Inside, you can enable or disable different panels. Please check that your Places panel is visible:
http://imgur.com/a/80XfvThen under the content editor, you shold have the Place details panel. It may be closed, click on the small arrow on the right to open it:
http://imgur.com/a/MStIMPlease also check in Settings->QT Places that you have the google maps api key correctly set, and that you don’t have disabled the maps api and js api script (both checkboxes to OFF)
http://imgur.com/a/9YOn8Hello, thank you very much for answer. I don´t see places in “screen options” and no, there is no closed panel with place details… Api key. I simply created project and put the the key. Should i set some api in the api manager?
About the API key, be sure to create a Javascript API key, and if you restrict it to a domain (not recommended until all is working) please read the Google’s url manual carefully about the setup of the domain using wildcards (.yoursite.com/ and yoursite.com/*)
About the missing fields, please be sure that in the preferences of the plugin you have enabled the Maps capabilities for the specific post type where you want to add coordinates.
I tried to enable Maps capabilities for post and nothing happend… I will try to set new API key…
Ok, 2 questions then 
1) Which post type you want to add to the map? The Places or other types? If “another type” like posts, after saving do you see the checkbox checked in the settings or it remains empty?
2) If you go in QT Places->Add New do you have the map fields?
So I created new project in API Manager, than I enabled Google Maps JavaScript API. After that i simply created credentials and used API key. No more settings… It still doesn´t work… Did I something wrong? Thank you
APi key is totally unrelated with the fact that you don’t see the fields, please check my previous message and please check those things i need
I would like to use places for the map. If i go in QT Places – > Add New -> I don´t see map fields. Thank you very much
Ok, so there must be some other deeper issue regarding conflicts with other website components. Please do the following:
1) Take a backup of your website 2) Please send us to info[at]qantumthemes.com and email with your Wordpress user, password and URL, with a short description of the issue. I’ll log in and check what’s wrong. Thanks!
OK. Thank you very much.
Hello Las Pallmas256, we just found out the issue, for a terrible mistake we uploaded as standalone plugin the bundle version, which had some backend functions disabled to avoid theme conflicts. Now we updated the plugin and in few hours will be on Codecanyon. If you have urgency please write to info@qantumthemes.com we will send you a direct link. Thanks!
Hello! Did you already update to last version? we found out the issue and updated the plugin, last week we uploaded for mistake the “bundle” version instead of the “standalone” version. Please get back to me if you still have any issue. Thanks!
Hello, I still have same problem… I´ll try to disable all plugins and theme now… Or do I have to clean old
data in database?
Hi, no you don’t have to do nothing of that. But it looks like Codecanyon is still having a slowdown on the updates:
http://imgur.com/a/JstjWPlease contact us at info@qantumthemes.com i’ll send you direct download link for the product. Thanks!
Hi, Just bougth this plugin. I have added a place entered the api code and published place. I selected to use places for pages & Post in settings. The problem here is that when i select “pages” the visual composer is gone when I edit a page? can you have a look!!
Also the geocode adress sucks. It doesn’t take any address I enter. Also the longitude & lattide cannot be saved. I enter them as you explain. After save the field(s) are empty again. Can’t you add a map where you can drag and drop and move the marker around and the lon/latt is updated automatically? Without changing the addres field? I aks because still half of the world cannot find a specific address and with automated adres it gives the most rediculous names. Its much better to type the address and then move around the marker to where you want it to be..without changing the address text field again!!!
I just see the problem with long/lat. You must enter it in the second field which is not really clear. maybe you can write it somewhere to add the long/latt in the second field!!
Stil the geolocate address does not work as you would expect. I added addresses that defenitly should be found very easy, but nothing works here. You could really consider to use a map here with drop & drag pin.
Hello, please contact us via email at info@qantumthemes.com we will send a new beta of the plugin that may fix your issues. Sorry for late reply but we are not at office during the weekend. Thanks!
