add more content to infowindow in google maps api - wordpress

I am using Advanced Custom Fields to set the location of a post and display it on a map within my custom post template and it works great. But I have also created a google map that plots all the locations of my custom posts types on one map.
My problem is that I can’t get it to pull content or a link into the infowindow from those custom posts. I also can't get it to change the marker depending on a true/false field.
I’ve looked around the internet and tried to use the code that google suggests as well as the users on this site, but I seem to be doing something wrong. All it does is display the title followed by a weird symbol. Any help would be appreciated :)
This is the code I am using:
<section>
<?php
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'offices',
'posts_per_page' => -1
);
// query
$wp_query = new WP_Query( $args );
$NUM = 0;
?>
<div id="map"></div>
<script src='http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false' type='text/javascript'></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var locations = [<?php while( $wp_query->have_posts() ){
$wp_query->the_post();
$location = get_field('location'); // IMPORTANT << Change this for your Google map field name !!!!!!
?>
['<?php the_title(); ?>', <?php echo $location['lat']; ?>, <?php echo $location['lng'];?>, <?php $NUM++ ?> ],
<?php } ?> ];
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), {
zoom: 7, /*Here you change zoom for your map*/
center: new google.maps.LatLng(42.6, -76.0), /*Here you change center map first location*/
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
});
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow();
var marker, i;
for (i = 0; i < locations.length; i++) {
marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: new google.maps.LatLng(locations[i][1], locations[i][2]),
map: map
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', (function(marker, i) {
return function() {
infowindow.setContent(locations[i][0]);
infowindow.open(map, marker);
}
})(marker, i));
}
</script>
</section>

Yes, I got your problem. As per me you are doing well but you need to modify your code slightly.
Just make an array of values in your while loop like for markers :
$marker[] = '"'.get_the_title().'"'.','.$event_lat.','.$event_long;
and for marker details like :
$marker_details[] = get_the_title().'_sunil_'.get_the_content($post->ID).'_sunil_'.$ev_location.'_sunil_'.get_permalink($post->ID);
Then after this just place your script using foreach loop and explode above $marker_details array by separator sunil.
The code will be :
var markers = [
<?php foreach ($marker as $mar){
echo "[".$mar."],";
};?>
];
var infoWindowContent = [
<?php foreach ($marker_details as $mar_det){
$check_val = explode('_sunil_',$mar_det);?>
['<div class="info_content">' +
'<h3 style="display:block"><?php echo $check_val[0];?></h3><strong style="display:block;text-transform:capitalize;"><?php echo "Location : ".$check_val[2];?></strong>' +
'<p><?php echo substr($check_val[1], 0, 200);?>...</p>Read More' + '</div>'],
<?php }?>
];
Do not disturb structure by even a single comma while making it dynamic using loops. Just take a fresh html and implementation instructions from here : http://www.wptricks24.com/map-with-multiple-markers

wordpress loop and multiple google maps getting errors in console

I'm trying to create a slide out box with 4 localisations shown on maps. Each localisation on one map.
I have created a custom post type with custom post fields lat and lng. I'm getting the custom post fields through
<?php
$args = array(
'post_type'=> 'localisations',
'posts_per_page' => 4,
'orderby' => 'date',
'order' => 'DESC',
);
query_posts($args);
if ( have_posts() ) :
while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
$meta = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'real_estate_location_details', true );
?>
In my next step I'm adding to div.mapholder an ID with increment using jQuery
jQuery(function($){
var i=0;
$('.mapholder').each(function(){
i++;
var newID='map'+i;
$(this).attr('id',newID);
$(this).val(i);
});
});
<div id="map-container">
<div class="mapholder"></div>
</div><!-- #map-container -->
and at the end I'm creating the map
function initialize() {
var latVariable = "<?php echo $meta['lat']; ?>";
var lngVariable = "<?php echo $meta['lng']; ?>";
var mapOptions = {
center: {lat: latVariable, lng: lngVariable},
zoom: 5
}
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'+i), mapOptions);
}
google.maps.event.addDomListener(window, 'load', initialize);
the console outputs some errors:
`You have included the Google Maps JavaScript API multiple times on this page. This may cause unexpected errors.` - I think its because the increment in `var map new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'+i), mapOptions);` doesn't work, but I don't know how to fix this.
Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token new - Got this one. I was missing `=` between map and new
Could you please help me out whit this?
You have the issues because you are adding Google Api scripts inside of the loop - that is why they are getting loaded so many times and you have the error displayed.
It would be hard to present you with working example without being able to actually run it so please do not treat it as a final working solution but rather as a direction.
First of all you do not need this script which creates the IDs as it doesn't help in your scenario and it can be done easily while running PHP loop.
Second thing would be to change the way the callback is called on window load. By defining the function in the loop you are actually redefining it each time.
Third thing is to extract google API script outside of the loop.
Please find the code in this pastebin.
<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=AIzaSyC5rsZHHAmzP_pOuHGKEUtarn2QideIyUM"></script>

Actually I would strongly recommend going in completely other direction with your code as you will have some issues with that approach.
Nevertheless code form pastebin should work in your case.

Toggle Wordpress Locations on a google map using ACF

I'm building a website with a page that shows all locations (Custom Post Type) on a Google map. I use ACF (Advanced Custom Fields) to add the map location to the specific location. Furthermore I give each location a category (Parking, Hotel, ect.).
At this point all locations are show on the map correctly. But I'm trying to find a way to toggle these locations based on their category. So initially I want to hide all markers on the map and toggle their visibility based on a click (anchor or checkbox, doesn't matter).
I did see some answers that looked promising, but I can't figure this out with the code provided by ACF. I hope someone can help me with this. And can tell me where to add some extra code to setvisibility and toggle this based on a category select.
The code provide by ACF is shown below:
<script type="text/javascript">
(function($) {
/*
* new_map
*
* This function will render a Google Map onto the selected jQuery element
*
* #type function
* #date 8/11/2013
* #since 4.3.0
*
* #param $el (jQuery element)
* #return n/a
*/
function new_map( $el ) {
// var
var $markers = $el.find('.marker');
// vars
var args = {
zoom : 16,
center : new google.maps.LatLng(0, 0),
mapTypeId : google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
};
// create map
var map = new google.maps.Map( $el[0], args);
// add a markers reference
map.markers = [];
// add markers
$markers.each(function(){
add_marker( $(this), map );
});
// center map
center_map( map );
// return
return map;
}
/*

function add_marker( $marker, map ) {
// var
var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng( $marker.attr('data-lat'), $marker.attr('data-lng') );
// create marker
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position : latlng,
map : map
});
// add to array
map.markers.push( marker );
// if marker contains HTML, add it to an infoWindow
if( $marker.html() )
{
// create info window
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
content : $marker.html()
});
// show info window when marker is clicked
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
infowindow.open( map, marker );
});
}
}
/*

*
* #type function

* #param map (Google Map object)
* #return n/a
*/
function center_map( map ) {
// vars
var bounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds();
// loop through all markers and create bounds
$.each( map.markers, function( i, marker ){
var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng( marker.position.lat(), marker.position.lng() );
bounds.extend( latlng );
});
// only 1 marker?
if( map.markers.length == 1 )
{
// set center of map
map.setCenter( bounds.getCenter() );
map.setZoom( 16 );
}
else
{
// fit to bounds
map.fitBounds( bounds );
}
}
/*
* document ready
*
* This function will render each map when the document is ready (page has loaded)
*
* #type function
* #date 8/11/2013

* #param n/a

*/
// global var
var map = null;
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.acf-map').each(function(){
// create map
map = new_map( $(this) );
});
});
})(jQuery);
</script>
The code that renders my markers is as follows:
<div class="acf-map">
<?php while ( $wp_query->have_posts() ) : $wp_query->the_post(); ?>
<?php
$location = get_field('google_maps_adres');
if( !empty($location) ):
?>
<div class="marker" data-lat="<?php echo $location['lat']; ?>" data-lng="<?php echo $location['lng']; ?>">
<h4 class="marker__title"><?php the_title(); ?></h4>
<div class="marker__address">
<?php $contact_address = get_field('google_maps_adres');$address = explode( "," , $contact_address['address']); ?>
<div class="marker__address-street"><?php echo $address[0].', ';?></div>
<div class="marker__address-city"><?php echo $address[1];?></div>
</div>
<a class="marker__link" href="<?php the_permalink();?>">Meer informatie</a>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php endwhile;?>
<?php wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
</div>
I could help with this but maybe it's already answered here. Take a look and try the solution proposed there. If that doesn't work for you let me know and we can work it together ;)
EDIT:
Ok, let´s try to do this then. First of all you need to distinguish each marker, with a class or an ID. Let's do it with classes since we are using the categories and each marker can belong to several categories.
Change your code as follows:
<?php while ( $wp_query->have_posts() ) : $wp_query->the_post(); ?>
<?php $cats = get_the_category(); //this gives me the categories of the post (marker) ?>
<?php $catsString = implode(", ",$cats); // this gives me the categories as a String separated with ", " ?>
<?php
$location = get_field('google_maps_adres');
if( !empty($location) ):
?>
<div class="marker <?php echo $catsString; ?>" data-lat="<?php echo $location['lat']; ?>" data-lng="<?php echo $location['lng']; ?>">
<h4 class="marker__title"><?php the_title(); ?></h4>
<div class="marker__address">
<?php $contact_address = get_field('google_maps_adres');$address = explode( "," , $contact_address['address']); ?>
<div class="marker__address-street"><?php echo $address[0].', ';?></div>
<div class="marker__address-city"><?php echo $address[1];?></div>
</div>
<a class="marker__link" href="<?php the_permalink();?>">Meer informatie</a>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php endwhile;?>
All I've done is for each marker get the categories and used them as classes for the main marker container.
Now you have all your markers with their classes set. That's good. The next step is to use some input to control the visibility of those markers. Let's use a checkbox for example.
For each category you should have a checkbox:
<?php $categories = get_categories();
foreach( $categories as $category ) {
echo '<label><input class="markerToggle" type="checkbox" id="'. $category->name .'">'. $category->name .'</label>';
}
?>
Then you would need some simple Javascript to hide/show each marker
$('.markerToggle').change(function() {
if($(this).is(":checked")) {
//'checked' event code
$('.marker.' + this.id).show();
return;
}
$('.marker.' + this.id).hide();
//'unchecked' event code
});

Google Maps Marker Cluster isn't working

For the life of me, I can not get this to work. I'm trying to pass the Marker Clusterers to my Google Map - but it's not working. I've got this map set up through Google Maps API and it's for a Wordpress website. The user can add locations using a Custom Post type. There are a lot of locations in close proximities, so I'm trying to use the MarkerCluster to lighten it up a bit. I've never used the MarkerCluster before, so it could be a small thing, too... not sure.
'var mc = new MarkerClusterer(map);' --This draws an error of: "Uncaught ReferenceError: MarkerClusterer is not defined"
Any insight? Any help is greatly appreciated!!

As per my comments :
You need to download the script ( here ) and then Include it in your page.
Marker clusterer is not a built-in feature of google maps , but an addon script ..
<script src="markerclusterer.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
or in the "correct" wordpress way :
wp_register_script( 'js_marker_clusterer', plugins_url( '/scripts/MarkerClusterer.js', __FILE__ ),'jquery' ); // or other dependencies descendents - preferably map JS or your custom.
wp_enqueue_script('js_marker_clusterer');
( change to your paths )
Also, look at the examples ( HERE ) and check their code ( and includes )
You need to include the third party marker clusterer script if you want to use it.
As specified in the documentation:
Note: Be sure to include markerclusterer.js or markerclusterer_packed.js in your HTML document.
<script src="/path/to/markerclusterer.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Adding Hyperlinks to Infowindow using GMaps

I'm using Wordpress, and am successful at displaying a map on my site with multiple markers using GMaps. Unfortunately, I was hoping to have the "location name" hyperlinked to the relevant post on my site. For some reason though, I can't add a hyperlink to the infowindow without crashing the whole map.
Below is the functioning code, as soon as I remove the strip_tags(); function the map no longer displays. I'm guessing it's related to having too many ", but I can't figure out how to get it working.
$str = '';
foreach($loop as $p){
//get the meta and taxonomy data
$name = strip_tags(get_the_term_list($p, "mountains"));
$wtr_long = get_post_meta($p,"wtr_longitude",true);
$wtr_lat = get_post_meta($p,"wtr_latitude",true);
//Add to Array
$map_string .= '{latitude: "' . $wtr_lat . '", longitude: "' . $wtr_long . '", html: "' . $name .'"},~!~';
//$map_string .= '{latitude: "' . $wtr_lat . '", longitude: "' . $wtr_long . '", html: "name"},~!~';
}
//Remove last three "~!~" characters from the string not to have one too many arrays when exploding
$clean_map_string = substr($map_string, 0, -3);
//Now I can use explode on ~!~ to get arrays with my string
$map_array = explode('~!~', $clean_map_string);
?>
<!--Map implementation-->
<div id="map" style="width:880px; height: 600px; background-color:grey;"></div>
<script type="text/JavaScript">
$("#map").gMap({
scrollwheel: false,
maptype: G_PHYSICAL_MAP,
markers: [
<?php
$i = 0;
$length = count($map_array)-1;
//Inserts all the markers
foreach($map_array as $value){
if( $i != $length ){
echo $value;
}
else {
echo str_replace("},", "}],", $value);
}
$i++;
}
?>
popup: false,
zoom: 2 });
</script>
InfoWindows usually have no problems with tags. You are trying to create a JSON-string there, use json_encode() instead of this mixture of string-functions to avoid invalid characters inside the string.
<?php
$markers=array();
foreach($loop as $p){
$markers[]=array(
'latitude' => get_post_meta($p,"wtr_latitude",true),
'longitude' => get_post_meta($p,"wtr_longitude",true),
'html' => get_the_term_list($p, "mountains")
);
}
?>
<!--Map implementation-->
<div id="map" style="width:880px; height: 600px; background-color:grey;"></div>
<script type="text/JavaScript">
$("#map").gMap({
scrollwheel: false,
maptype: G_PHYSICAL_MAP,
markers: <?php echo json_encode($markers);?>,
popup: false,
zoom: 2 });
</script>

'setMapTypeId' not working with custom map (Google Maps)

I have a set of different map types (styles). As you can see in the simplified example, I try to switch the map types with an onClick event.
This works great for the default - by google.maps provided - styles. But when I try to switch to my custom style, I have a delay of ~2-3 seconds (local environment) and then get a completely grey map (nothing on the tiles).
I know that the map style itself works (not the same as in the linked example), because it's my initial map style. So only the switch back to my custom style is not working. Sadly I get nothing in the console and don't know how I could debug this.
<?php
// Inside the init(); function:
?>
var custom_style = [
{
featureType: 'water'

<?php

foreach ( $map_types as $index => $type )

<span
class="map-type"
onClick="
my_map.setMapTypeId( google.maps.MapTypeId.<?php echo strtoupper( $type ); ?> );
// This is funny: I can access all mapType objects without a problem:
console.log( my_map.mapTypes.<?php echo strtolower( $type ); ?> );
"
id="<?php echo strtolower( $type ); ?>"
>
<?php echo $type; ?>
</span>
<?php
}
?>
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
EDIT:
Here's something other I tried (from inside my init(); fn, that does the setup for the map):
// The map type control DOM/UI Element
var map_type_controls = document.getElementsByClassName( 'map-type' );
// using jQuery to add a DOM listener function for click events to the UI elements:
jQuery.each( map_type_controls, function() {
google.maps.event.addDomListener( this, 'click', function() {
var control_id = jQuery( this ).attr( 'id' );
var control = control_id.toUpperCase();
// uncomment to debug:
// Shows all map type control DOM element correct
// console.log( control );
// Shows all registered mapType objects incl. the custom one correct:
// console.log( my_map.mapTypes );
my_map.setMapTypeId( google.maps.MapTypeId[ control ] );
// Per recommendation - doesn't help
google.maps.event.trigger( atlas_map, "resize" );
} );
} );
Normally when you modified a property of a map, let's say a new coordinates or a zoom, even if you change the size of the container (div), you should trigger the event called resize it's the only way to avoid this problem, now, i don't know if this works when you change the type of the map but you should try, the code it's the following:
google.maps.event.trigger(map, "resize");
