Description
GOAL of Locator plugin: Create an easy way for e107 0.7.8 (or higher) to display locations and integrates with maps. What is a location? It can be anything geographically. If you can specify it with a street name and zip code, you've got a location. Possible usage: store locator, dealer locator, collegues locator, friends locator, branch locator, office locator, retail locator. This e107 plugin has been written with EasyShop users with multiple physical stores in mind. You can provide your visitors with a simple list of all your stores. You just type in the addresses, the locator plugin provides the link to a map automatically. Dependent on your own preference, you can choose from map providers Google Maps or Mapquest. When having entered the (free) Google Maps API key, an embedded map can be displayed in your e107 locator page. If you want to provide a specific URL per location, that is also possible! The Locator features all kinds of settings to display the map; you have total control over almost all aspects of the map. Input locations by coordinates is also possible. The Locator plugin is capable of setting a location category, with a user group that might view that particular category. Keeping track of individual store Opening Hours can be done as an option. Also it is possible to set a user class that is allowed to submit new locations. New locations must be approved by the site administrator. |
