Re: Using plugin "map"

Hello Karsten,

you could consider to install a cartograf as a personal test and demo
instance - stand alone with a subdomain.

There you could experiment and get more used to the concept how (OSM)
maps are handled in Tiki nowadys.

A usermap or similar would likely be a different setup, but imho quite
similar to some extent.

A map with a POI should be quite very similar, if not identical, as a
cartograf with the difference that at cartograf you have many POIs on
many maps. You want one POI on one map.

Anyway the cartograf trackers create POIs and put them on maps with
arbitrary icons ("needles"), descriptions and legends.

Regards
Torsten
