Override map coordinates

[Braindg]

Hi,

I realise there are lat/long settings in admincp, however....

Our site has multiple regions, primarily uk, au and nz, I use conditionals to present information to them.

Is it possible to override the admincp coordinates with a JS in header? I could then use my conditionals and localise the map depending on te users region.

Thanks

If you open the garage.php page, I'm setting them in there. You could probably figure out a way to override them depending on the users region, maybe if you have it set in their userinfo.

Look for code like

var myLatlng = new google.maps.LatLng(" . $vbulletin->options[garage_deft_map_lat] . ", " . $vbulletin->options[garage_deft_map_lng] . ");\n"; 

That's where it sets the long/lat

Looks like they took them out of the newer version. I'm not sure it's even needed now. Try removing those lines from the garage_main template and see if it helps. Should at least get rid of the errors. It shouldn't make a difference on your map unfortunately. Does the map not show at all or does it show with no pinpoints?

I see the map.

I see the map and a vehicle on it as well?

I've done some more testing and it is bizarre .. I can see it when logged in as guest and as my test user also however I cannot see any map when logged in as my actual/proper user account.
