Re: Using plugin "map"

Hi Karsten,

The searchlayer parameters (should be within plugin map) can be very simple:

IE : {searchlayer tracker_field_publishedOnTheMap="y" load_delay ="1"}

This is good enough to tell the plugin to display all trackeritem with a field "publishedOnTheMap" = y (the published checkbox field I mentioned early for example).
Note: load_delay make sure other layers (area) are loaded before the markers.

You can have all object mixed together with other item in different tracker. I prefer to have a tracker for area, a tracker for markers (sometime a tracker per markers), etc.
So I can use different switch to display or not different elements on the map, change all the marker icons with a single instance, etc.

Fiel type location is used for POI, fielf type file (geojson) for area…
