Jacob, thank you for your message. Do you know of any how to guides that you can recommend?<br><br>Anisa.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Aug 28, 2010 at 2:27 AM, Jacob M. Roufa <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jacob.roufa@gmail.com">jacob.roufa@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">You'll want to install gmap and views (and any requirements as well) and make a new nodetype or two to associate location information with. Then create a view to list all nodes of type (locative nodetype) on the map. Displaying it on the map how you like will be a project in theming.<br>
<br><span style="font-family: Prelude,Verdana,san-serif;">Hope this helps at all...<br><br>Cheers!<br><br></span><span><div style="font-family: arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: rgb(153, 153, 153);">-- Jacob M. Roufa<br>

<br>Hi, all! Thank you for your support on my previous email.<br><br>I'm trying to understand how to use the Gmaps module. I really don't understand anything, so it wouldn't be effective for me to waste everyone's time on the list. What I would really appreciate is if you could point out some good current HOW TO guides. I have been looking around, but everything seems rather old. (drupal 5, often!)<br>
<br>This is what I want to do:<br><br>I have a list of places I have been and places I want to go to. I have their addresses and names. Places I have been I have multiple pictures of. Places I haven't, I have varying degrees of information.<br>
<br>I'd like one big map that shows markers for all places. There should be one color for places I have been, one color for places I haven't. You should be able to go from the marker to a page for that place. That place specific page should show a close up map, all the pictures, and any other information I have.<br>
<br>I would prefer for that page to be one node, though I have seen things done with views. It would be great that if I created a new node of that type, a new marker showed up on the big map. <br><br>Thank you for your help!<br>
