Is there a better guide to getting started other than the one listed on your site? I just purchased this plugin and I don’t have a clear understanding of how it works. For instance, when I paste the shortcode into a post, the map that appears is London, although I have put coordinates in for another place. Do you have a step-by-step guide?

Hi,

Sorry for the delay. Unfortunately there’s no other step by step guide. If you need further help, please send me the login to your site at plugin.progressmap@gmail.com and i’ll try to create an example for you to follow.

Thank you

Really great plug-in but one important question: I need to filter polygons in the faceted filter: is it possible?

Or just recall one polygon in a specific page, is it possible by shortcodes? Thanks

Hi,

Sorry for the delay.

I need to filter polygons in the faceted filter: is it possible?

- Unfortunately no. The polygons can not be filtred.

<blockqoute>Or just recall one polygon in a specific page, is it possible by shortcodes?

- Unfortunately no. Polygons can only be operated from the settings.

Thank you for your patience

How can I change size rounded bubbles from 100×100 to 55×55 ?

http://tinyurl.com/pmdqner

Hi,

Unfortunately, there’s no option to change the bubbles size.

Thank you

Yes I know about it. But when I save picture from my map http://tinyurl.com/pmdqner , the bubbles picture is bigger (100×100) then from your demo (55×55). So, I don’t know what is wrong with my map?

Hi,

Please note that bubbles pictures are 100100 but they are displayed 5555 (in your site and the demo). The reason for this is to avoid pixelized pictures in Smart phones. In Smart phones, we have to display a picture half its size in order to be clearly viewed in the screen. If i want to display a picture in a 5050 area, this picture must be 100100. This is called Retina Display. This is how it works and there’s no way to avoid it otherwise, you will complain of the bad quality of your images when viewed in a phone.

Thank you

Hi What happens if more than one post has the same location? When you’re zoomed all the way in do the posts/markers display next to each other or on top of each other, so only the top one will display while others are hidden? Are there any display options for this?

The use I’m planning is to display holidays from the airport locations. So from LA there will be 5 or 6 posts we would map to there.

Thanks Nick

Hi,

All your locations will be displayed in a list. You can see this in action on the demo by following this steps:

1. Open the Demo map. http://www.codespacing.com/

2. Zoom-out the map until you see two clusters, one with 13 markers and the other one with 5 markers.

3. Click on the cluster with 5 markers.

4. A new cluster will appear, it has 3 markers. Click on this cluster.

5. A new cluster will appear, it has 2 markers. Click on this cluster.

6. Click one more time on that cluster.

Thank you

I really want to buy this plugin but whilst testing your demo I found an issue, it seems I can’t drag the map around. Is this my issue or just how you setup the demo map?

Hi,

Please go to Infobox settings and check the Red part titled How to use your theme’s “functions.php” file to override the infobox’s Title & Content in order to display your custom title & content?. You’ll find the hooks and all the descriptions you’ll need.

Thank you

Thank you :)

What’s the best way to update the plugin? If I deactivate/delete the plugin and upload the updated one, will this keep or delete my map markers?

Hi,

Just remove the old version and install the latest version. You will not lose any of your settings & markers.

Thank you

Hi there, I have a big problem, I set all the map up with lots of portolio entries and got all the settings just right. I have now copied across the website from a testing server to a production server and none of my changes have come across, is there a way I should be doing this?

Hi,

Please send me the link to your map page to check this.

Thank you

After testing several versions, it seems that at 2.7.1 the ‘center_at=”’$.ID.’”’ no longer works. For some reason I can only roll back to 2.6.6, and it works again but there is a conflict with the new gmaps API that doesn’t allow the clusters to work (that was since fixed).

I have a major international client that I’m using your code for and set to launch on Friday – any chance I can pay you to help troubleshoot and fast track an update?

Thanks!

Hi,

Sorry for the delay, i was extremely busy. Yes, there’s a bug in the current version regarding the “center_at” attribute. I’ll fix this today and send the updates to Codecanyon.

Thanks for your patience

Hi Hope you’re well.

I’ve just seen the new support for kml. Very cool!

Can I double check. If the kml includes a directions layer will this display/import ok? Or I notice if I export from Google my maps a kml and re-import the directions layer becomes a shape layer. So the question might be can progress maps show the shape file that is in a kml file?

Can a post have a different kml file attached/imported? So essentially I could use a custom post type like ‘holiday routes’ and display these on a single map?

Thanks Nick

Hi,

Unfortunately no. Each post can have a kml file but there’s no option to display each post’s kml file in one single map.

Thank you

Hi Thanks for your message. Is this something that is possible with development or impossible due to the way Google app works? If it is possible please can I ask if this might feature in you Dev plan?

Hi,

I’ll have to study this but even if it’s possible to do, i really don’t think i’ll do it soon. I’m in the middle of complicated project and i’ll be busy for the 4 next months. I’ll be available only to answer questions and to fix bugs. I may add some small features but this one will have to wait :)

Thank you

Hi, This is the second purchase of Progress Map and I think it is really good. However I am having problems this time round. Everything was looking good, it was installed, working and I just managed to custom style the carousel when the page went blank or should i say white.

Development install link: http://toursanglesey.wpengine.com/places-to-visit/anglesey-beaches/

I have tried for many hours to find out what the problem is but I can’t. Any ideas why this is happening please.

Thank you

the problem has now been sorted thank you

Can a user in WPMU login and add the name, address and comments. Can it zoom into a street view to the persons location Can it get the IP address shown to the admin only for the user as I record the IP address for logins

I’ve got the map working for the most part and can display it on a page with all of the markers. I have around 150 markers.

What I’m trying to do now is display a map on the individual post and have the map center itself and zoom based on just the coordinates for this individual post so that people can see where this particular post is on the map and not confuse it with all of the other markers on the map.

Hi,

Sorry for the delay, i was extremely busy. Please note that you can do what you want by using the shortcode [codespacing_light_map]. You can find more about this shortcode at http://www.codespacing.com/progress-map-shortcodes/.

Thanks for your patience

Sorry, now I feel dumb with the question. I read that document over and over and somehow still missed the connection that light map was for individual posts. That solved my problem. Thanks for your help!

Hi, is there a way for users/viewers to add their location to a map? Maybe by filling out a form?

Hi,

Sorry for the delay, i was extremely busy. Please note that the plugin provides a frontend form that you can use for that purpose. Please go to http://www.codespacing.com/progress-map-shortcodes/ and check the label “Frontend form”.

Thanks for your patience

Hi,

Just checking that your plugin will work for woocommerce listings?

Cheers

Hi,

Sorry for the delay, i was extremely busy. Yes you can use the plugin with woocommerce listings.

Thank you :)

Hi Great plugin,

we have it all setup and working great, and would like to pull in custom fileds for the info box to show, image and text.

Can you let us know how to do this?

Thanks T

Hi,

Sorry for the delay, i was extremely busy. To display your custom fields in the infobox, please go to Carousel items settings and make use of the field Items description. You’ll find all the insctructions you need below that field.

Thanks for your patience

I’m having an issue with the infobox disappearing. I’ve been having this problem for a while but now since the website is live and running as of earlier this week it’s a bit more drastic.

http://bassltd.com/board-locations/

If you zoom in before clicking a marker, then click the marker, the infobox disappears. Any tips?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36Q0qGNQk_I&feature=youtu.be

The video didn’t capture the mouse pointer for some reason.

When you double click to zoom, then click a location, the infobox disappears. This happens in Chrome, Opera, Safari, and IE on mac and pc. It does not happen in firefox.

If you don’t double click, and use the + and – images to the left, it does not have the disappearing infobox problem.

On mobile ios, it’s the opposite. The + and – buttons seem to cause the infobox to disappear.

I’ve tested the issue on multiple PC’s, macs, and mobile os’s, all with multiple browsers. I get the same issue on every one.

It only works in firefox. Please try double clicking on the map a few times, and try clicking a marker in Chrome. If I was a customer trying to use the current map I would probably bounce off the site.

Thanks

Please? :(

Hi,

Sorry for the delay. I’m extremely busy and that’s why i don’t answer questions promptly.

Please note that i’ve followed your instructions and yes, i can see the problem now when i double click to zoom. In my case, the infobox disappears only on when i click on the first marker but it doesn’t disappears for the other markers. Anyway, i agree that there’s an issue that must be fixed. I’ll try to fix this ASAP. Please bear with me.

Thanks for your patience

How to set map to full screen like this: http://www.transics.com/customers-map-view/ ?

Hi, Sorry for the delay.

You’ll have to create an empty page template if your theme’s doesn’t have one. Here’s an example of the code to create an empty page in case you need it:

1. Create a PHP page inside your theme’s folder. Name it something like “page-empty-progress-map.php” and paste the following code.

<?php
/**
 * The template for displaying Progress Map in an empty page
 * Template Name: Empty page for Progress Map
 */

wp_head();

    while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();

        the_content();

    endwhile;

wp_footer();

?>

2. Create a new page in your administration. In “Page attributes => Template”, select the option “Empty page for Progress Map”.

3. Enter the shortcode in the content of the page.

Thank you

Hi,

This is probably a really stupid question… but can I have more than one regionally different maps on the one site? Or do they all have to be related to the one location as ‘Map Center’ is set un settings?

Thanks, love the plugin!

Hi,

Yes they’ll use the same center point set in “Map center”. To override this, make use of the shortcode attribute center_at to change the center of each map.

Find more about the shortcode attributes at http://www.codespacing.com/progress-map-shortcodes/

Thank you

Thank you!! : )

You’re welcome :)

Hi, Is there a way to set “width” & “height” for the main map via the [codespacing_progress_map] shortcode?

basically I want to display my map at different areas of the website with different height.. is it possible?

thanks

Hi,

Here’s the code you need. Copy it in your theme’s functions.php file.

function cspm_set_map_height_width_by_page(){

    global $post;

    $page_id = $post->ID;

    if(class_exists('CodespacingProgressMap')){            

        $ProgressMapClass = CodespacingProgressMap::this();

        $height = $ProgressMapClass->layout_fixed_height;
        $width  = $ProgressMapClass->layout_fixed_width;

        if($page_id == '20'){

            $height = '500';
            $width  = '900';    

        }elseif($page_id == '22'){    

            $height = '700';
            $width  = '700';    

        }

        $ProgressMapClass->layout_fixed_height = $height;    
        $ProgressMapClass->layout_fixed_width = $width;    

    }

}
add_action('template_redirect', 'cspm_set_map_height_width_by_page');

This code handles only two pages, you can extend it to use unlimited number of pages. To do that, all you need is to copy this part:

elseif($page_id == '22'){

    $height = '700';
    $width  = '700';    

}

Note: the IDs 20 and 22 are just examples. You need to change them to your page IDs.

Thank you

thanks a lot guys, you are great!

You’re welcome :)

Hello,

I just updated to the newest version of Progress Map 2.7.2 (using the enfold theme) and seem to be having some issues with clicking & scrolling on the map using iOS 7.

Is mobile safari supported using progress map? Are there any settings I might need to change?

Cheers Seth

Hello.

Just wanted to chime in and let you know I found the fix for iOS by adding the following CSS to the div that the map was displayed in:

position: relative !important;
z-index: 999999 !important;

The only thing that doesn’t seem to be working now are the directional buttons in the upper right.

Do you think this might also be z-index or is it a plugin setting?

Cheers Seth

Hi,

Sorry for the delay. Honestly, i’ll have to make some tests to find out the problem. This could be just CSS issues. I’ll try to fix this in a next release ASAP.

Thank you for your patience

Hi,

I simply want to add a 2nd map on the same page. i am using this for the 1st map below;

[codespacing_progress_map]

is this what I add to pull in the 2nd map??

[codespacing_progress_map map_id =”secondary”]

if so where can i create the other map, as only 1 shows up in the page?

also is there a way of adding a info box with say an address over the map om a transparent layer?

Hi, Sorry for the delay.

how do I display the map images, like on this page below on the 4th map down ‘Display the Map and hide the Carousel’??;

- To hide the carousel from the shortcode use the attribute carousel. Here’s an example:

[codespacing_progress_map carousel="no"]
how do i get the image into the marker hover circle? where do I upload the image, link from?

- To add an image, simply upload a Featured image to your post and the plugin will display it in both the infobox and carousel.

is there a way of adding a info box with say an address over the map om a transparent layer?

- Unfortunately no, but you can use one of the available infoboxes under Infobox settings => Infobox type

Thank you
