Hi Folks, Hi kksou
The GoogleMaps-Plugins are great! Thank you very much for sharing with us!
I’m using the ‘to-here-plugin’. Sadly I have a small big Problem that could be a neck-breaker. I really hope someone has a workaround/solution for that.
What’s the problem: Of course I’m using lat/lng parameters. They are definitely correct (checked it over and over again)! They are pointing to a road in a wood without street name. So the place simply does not have an address. (That makes it even more important to get a precise route to there!)
But somehow the plugin is pointing to the next available address it can find. It is 500 meters away and a military base. That’s the main problem! I can’t lead my visitors to that base.
When I use the lat/lng parameter directly in the Google Maps Website, than it really points to the place where I want to, and is delivering a precise route to that point. So the problem must be in the plugin or the request thats been sending to google maps.
If you like to see the problem – this is my plugin code:
Lat/Lng: Lat/Lng: 49.09645,8.591405
{ googleDir_tohere width=400 height=360
home_lat=49.09645, home_long=8.591405 lang=de}

Greetings Florian

Hi Florian,

May I know which Joomla version are you using?

I have modified the code and come out with a new version. Would like to send one to you to see if it works for you.

Amazing!
Thank you so, so much!
I’m not kidding, that’s truly the best software support I ever experienced. It works perfectly!
Kind regards,
Florian
