I'm stuck after clicking 'Add Map', where you see:Create a map. Give the map a name, and adjust the paramters of the particular map to meet your liking.
Question: How is the map created? Where is it created?How Do I Use It?
* Install the module via the normal methods
* Setup your users and groups with the appropriate permissions:
* The 'Manage Maps' Permission allows administrators to add/edit and delete maps
* The 'Manage Map Locations' permission allows administrators to add/edit/delete points within a map
* Create a map. Give the map a name, and adjust the paramters of the particular map to meet your liking. Note that when resetting one of the map templates to defaults, you must still press the "Apply" or "Apply" buttons.
* Mark one of your maps as default, by clicking on the red 'X' beside a particular map. This is useful if you don't specify the 'map' parameter on the tag.
* Create one or more points within the map, either by specifying a latitude and longitude, or with an address.
* Add the {CGGoogleMaps} tag inside the content block of a page, or inside a page template. Then you're finished.
The best I could find.CGGoogleMaps 1.2
This module is a replacement for Dick Ittman's GoogleMap module. It provides much more functionality, and is easier to use. This version adds support for different marker icons for each map point, and adds the ability to change the default map icon.
I use this new functionality to provide a google map with different icons for different companies as listed in the company directory module..... Stay tuned to my blog for an upcoming tutorial on how to do this.

thksBut it's not clear how to do this.Create one or more points within the map, either by specifying a latitude and longitude, or with an address.
Once you have created the map, you will find it in the "Maps" overview. To the right, you will notice four symbols - the first one is a tiny red marker "button". Click this and you can enter marker points.paulbaker wrote:But it's not clear how to do this.Create one or more points within the map, either by specifying a latitude and longitude, or with an address.
