[Solved] Want Google Maps to show seller location of public profile page

[haryour]

I tried to put this code

Code: [Select]

<div class="widget-box">
        <div class="box location">
<h3><strong><?php _e('Location', 'bender') ; ?></strong></h3>
       <?php osc_run_hook('location'); ?>
        </div>
    </div>
on the user-public-profile.php but the maps is not showing.

Can someone tell me I miss there.

Hi,
You refers google maps plugin or generic code? I think you need expose your code better, because maybe exist some confusion in the middle. So, somebody see and can help you.

Didn't you rename your theme from bender to something else?
If so you must change this code theme name to your theme name.

Also, I am not sure I understand your question. Please be as specific as possible, even if your post gets long.

The code that causes the Google map is simply:

Code: [Select]

           <?php osc_run_hook('location'); ?>
This is the only code I know of to cause the map.

@Tom
Yeah! I know it is

Code: [Select]

           <?php osc_run_hook('location'); ?>
that display the map.

What I observed in the google map plugin (both index.php and map.php) is that only the item location is used, it does not include the seller location.

My problem is that I dont know how to manipulate those files maybe by adding more hooks to the plugin.

O, I see. Well I sure missed the boat.
Sorry, I have no suggestions but sure some one will.

Hi,
I'm not the ideal person to help you, and possibly what I say can not result in anything. But you can try, do not be afraid of the code, if you lose it or have questions, you quickly restores backed up, right?

in map.php, replace the variable "$item" for perhaps "$user".

In index.php, replace the "$aItem" variable with "$user".

Still in index.php, replace the variable "$itemId" for "$userId".

the variable "$catId" you should not need it in the function, because it is the id of the category.

You can try, but as I said earlier, I have no certainty of anything and did not even try to do this test.

Sorry if i'm wrong, i never tryed this before 

Use \oc-includes\osclass\helpers for you see some variables that may exist... i dont know.

Thanks man.

I got it all figured out.

Like you've said, I delved into the index.php and map.php and realised that the whole thing is set for $item meaning getting item location. I copied the codes and manipulate them to $user. Also, I added more hooks to index.php and the hook is called on the user-public-sidebar.php.

It works like charm.

great  , I'm glad you've accomplished. By the way, you kept google maps to work in item.php (in the ad page)? Because as you said, and well, you can use multiple hooks, as can duplicate the functions and maps, and call each function for your purpose on the two pages to display the desired, (page of ad for insert the item location, and profile page for location the user). And you have a plugin for two purposes.

Yeah! my own version of Google Maps plugin by Rajasekar & trains58554 can perform two purposes i.e. item location and seller location.

Anyway, thanks to Fog & Tom for spurring me into doing this. You guys are charms.

Hi Haryour, you are welcome!

[haryour]

Sometimes item location could be different from seller's location, so I find seller's location on the map necessary.

Just in case you fancy showing seller location on the map just like item location on the item page, I have attached my edited version of Google maps by Rajasekar & trains58554 for interested users.

Credit to Fog & Tomshaft for spurring into this.
