Hi,
This seems a very powerful module in conjuction with some other great modules like geofield.
Are there some great examples with mapping. And is this not a nice place to gather those;

I saw this one for example (I try it with an already available contenttype, but the ds display will than not show in the view..but it is a great example:

Other ones please, preferably with views export!:)

Thanks in advance,
greetings, Martijn

Title: Great examples? » More examples

Hi Martijn,

I've already pointed out to you twice in #2484545: Favorite location storage module? this reference that has it all: http://regionbound.com/Drupal-IPGVM-map-configuration

It has the complete Views configuration on there as screenshots. The content type used is super simple.

A Views export won't help, because it will refer to fields, content types etc. that won't exist on the receiver's site, so the import of the export file will fail miserably.

PS: once you have your map ready, we can put that up as an example!

Hi Rik,

Nope, not yet. First looking to a suitable theme. Thinking of: http://themeforest.net/item/bizreview-directory-listing-drupal-theme/ful...

No experience with that theme. But looks nice!
Wonder how it will go together with Geofield, IPGV&M etc...
You may have to do a little gutting to avoid interference.

Hi Rik,
Before buying the theme I want to know what you mean with "gutting to avoid interference"?
Is this programming, or tuning views/panels?

Hi Martijn,
Well the theme seems to have some map capability built-in.
The question is how was that done? Does it rely on Geofield? Or one of the other coordinate storage modules?
And what module was used to then show that map? What JS libraries are required?
Something on drupal.org or something homegrown?
Not saying you should not buy it.
Just wondering whether after you have decided to use Geofield you can use your existing data to go with the theme in the advertised way?

Hi Rik,
Looking through the issues, I think Bizreview is based on Geofield!
See for example: http://themeforest.net/item/bizreview-directory-listing-drupal-theme/823... and search for "geofield".
I will see if they use JS libraries..

@Summit, #9:

Well I'll be damned... They made 668 sales at $48 = $32,064 out of my module and I didn't even know.

The story of Drupal (and Open Source) in a nutshell: some people do the work while others reap the profits...

Hi Rik,
After today 669 :)
I think it is fare enough you contact them for at least promoting they use your great module.
And may be give you this theme to play with...it can improve both sides..
greetings, Martijn
