The BASIC SP-GeoMap Field

This application is without proximity/radius search!

The SobiPro SP-GeoMap Field extends the types of possible fields for SobiPro with a field type for showing the location of an entry on a geographical map. While editing an entry, it creates coordinates based on the geo-location of the current IP address of the author, or of the entered address. Thereupon the entry will get a map with a marker on its location in the details view.

Key Features:

  • Geographical map for each entry to show its location on a map
  • Map sizes and zoom level adjustable
  • Google Maps and Leaflet/OpenStreetMap providers available
  • Zoom and scale controls available
  • Satellite, roadmap, hybrid and terrain views for Google Maps available
  • Map Type, Street View, Rotate and Fullscreen controls available for Google Maps
  • Geo location based on a given address while adding an entry
  • Alternatively IP based browser geo location while adding an entry
  • Google API key support
  • SSL support
  • Responsive with gestures on mobile devices

Available languages (some languages are only partially translated):

Arabic (ar-AA)Brazilian Portuguese (pt-BR)Bulgarian (bg-BG)Catalan (ca-ES)Chinese (zh-CN)Croatian (hr-HR)Czech (cs-CZ)Danish (da-DK)Dutch (nl-NL)English (en-GB)Finnish (fi-FI)French (fr-FR)German (de-DE)Greek (el-GR)Hungarian (hu-HU)Indonesian (id-ID)Italian (it-IT)Japanese (ja-JP)Latvian (lv-LV)Persian/Farsi (fa-IR)Polish (pl-PL)Romanian (ro-RO)Russian (ru-RU)Slovak (sk-SK)Spanish (es-ES)Swedish (sv-SE)Thai (th-TH)Turkish (tr-TR)Vietnamese (vi-VN)

Attention!

As of mid-August 2023, Google has changed its API, and now expects ECMAScript 2020 compatibility. Legacy scripts like this field are not ECMAScript 2020 compliant. Additionally, the Google Maps API script can no longer be loaded multiple times, which happens when different extensions add their own Google Maps API URL and key. SobiPro field and module test whether a script has already been added by SobiPro. But as different API Urls are available (maps.google.com and maps.googleapis.com) this test may fail.

What you need to do:

  • In the GeoMap Field configuration, set 'Google URL' to //maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?v=3.53.
  • If you are using also the SP-GeoMap Module, update it to version 2.6.1 which we have released 25 August 2023
  • In the map module's configuration, change the 'Provider API URL' to //maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?v=3.53.

With these changes, SobiPro's Google Maps panel and module will work until May 2024. By then, you must have updated your SobiPro installation to SobiPro 2 or switch the map to Leaflet.
