address marker :: can it be set up to not display on the page by default?

address marker :: can it be set up to not display on the page by default?

Can I change a setting to NOT have the address market show when the page loads? Also, instead of clicking on a marker to display the data, can it be set up to show the marker when you mouse-over a location?

For each of the markers in wagmp_map_<mapnum>.php, you will want to find this code:

GEvent.addListener(marker_0, 'click', function() {
marker_0.openInfoWindowHtml(address_0.infowindowtext);
});

and change the click to mouseover, so it looks like this:

GEvent.addListener(marker_0, 'mouseover', function() {
marker_0.openInfoWindowHtml(address_0.infowindowtext);
});

After that, you will want to add another event listener to close the window on mouseout (if that is the functionality you want).
GEvent.addListener(marker_0, 'mouseout', function() {
marker_0.closeInfoWindow();
});


To prevent the info window from popping up on default, you will have to find the code similar to this for each marker and remove it:
if('address_0' == 'address_0')
marker_0.openInfoWindowHtml(address_0.infowindowtext);

Jimmy, I don't have this code. It's dynamic, so the closest I have is:

if (point && !isNaN(latitude)) {
wagmp_map_1_obj.addressFailed = false;
var marker_0_<?php echo $getListing_id; ?> = new GMarker(point, icon_0);
GEvent.addListener(marker_0_<?php echo $getListing_id; ?>, 'mouseover', function() {
marker_0_<?php echo $getListing_id; ?>.openInfoWindowHtml(address_0_<?php echo $getListing_id; ?>.infowindowtext);
});

Is this the right code to change?

You would be removing this code to get the window from not popping up initially:
if('address_0_<?php echo $getListing_id; ?>' == 'address_0_0')
marker_0_<?php echo $getListing_id; ?>.openInfoWindowHtml(address_0_<?php echo $getListing_id; ?>.infowindowtext);

And this is the code that you would use for changing the mouseover:
GEvent.addListener(marker_0_<?php echo $getListing_id; ?>, 'click', function() {
marker_0_<?php echo $getListing_id; ?>.openInfoWindowHtml(address_0_<?php echo $getListing_id; ?>.infowindowtext);
});

Change the click to mouseover:
GEvent.addListener(marker_0_<?php echo $getListing_id; ?>, 'mouseover', function() {
marker_0_<?php echo $getListing_id; ?>.openInfoWindowHtml(address_0_<?php echo $getListing_id; ?>.infowindowtext);
});

To add the mouseout:
GEvent.addListener(marker_0_<?php echo $getListing_id; ?>, 'mouseout', function() {
marker_0_<?php echo $getListing_id; ?>.closeInfoWindow();
});

Works perfectly, Jimmy. Thank you! Can this be a feature that is added to the next version of this extension? That would rock!

I will put in a feature request for this and it may be added into a future release.

I'm also requesting the ability to add a default zoom level through the wizard because every time I go into the wizard to change something, it deletes the info I entered about the zoom level.

Thanks!

If you could make a thread to request that in the wishlist forum, it will be looked over.

If you run into any additional issue, feel free to open a new thread.

Jimmy, this stopped working again after I edited a map. Here is the page:
