Hello Christoph,

I tried yesterday to configure a custom marker icon as described in ../wec_map/pi1/static/setup.txt

plugin.tx_wecmap_pi1 {

icons.1 {
iconID = greenarrow
imagepath = fileadmin/templates/ext/wec_map/arrow_green.png
shadowpath = fileadmin/templates/ext/wec_map/arrow_green_shadow.png
:
:
}

markers {
}
}

Is there anything more to do to succeed?

Frank

Frank,

You need to define all markers via TS if you want custom icons. Each marker then has a iconID property that needs to be the same as the iconID you give the icon.

Christoph

Christoph,

yes, that's what I've assumed.

But If I delete the address of the fist marker from the flexform and define it (markers.1) and a corresponding icon (icons.1) with existing files (arrow_green.png, arrow_green_shadow.png) and the right path in the extension template I only get the following result:

1. map appears with right location,
2. but with the default marker icon (mm_20_red.png) and an empty(!) info bubble.

Could you please tell me where I've made a mistake?

Thanks
Frank

Frank,

You don't need to have all that TS, only the stuff you customize or change. That's the purpose of the static template that you include.
You are missing markers.1.iconID = greenarrow in order to assign the icon to the marker. Not sure why the info bubble is empty.
I will take a look later today if adding the iconID doesn't change it.

Christoph

Christoph,

thanks, after addding the icon-id to the marker the custom icon now appears, but the bubble is still empty. Any further suggestions?

Frank

Frank,

You are missing a closing } after the icons.1 block, before the title.
There is a bug in simple map that causes the empty title. For now you can do this instead:
