Events Map is back
Published on: May 9,2016
I am delighted to tell you today that we are bringing Events map addon back live. We did some major improvements to the addon primarily in the area of correctly putting map markers and speed.
With eventON version 2.3.22 update all event locations should have auto generated latitude and longitude. This will be used on the new events map addon to generate map markers. What we have done is google maps geocode string addresses for locations into backend when a new event is added to convert address to LatLng and avoid this taxing conversions from frontend google maps API. We found out this as the primary cause for incorrect map markers in previous map addon versions.
Now using the LatLng already saved for event locations, google maps API should be able to run the markers lot faster and with accuracy than before.

New EventON 2.3.22
Latest eventON include the above mentioned upgrade to event locations. Along that we also included a visual composer (VC) elements block for eventON. However there is a small bug in the code that comes for those not using VC below patch can be used for that.

Great, congrats for the fix !!
Hey guys,
is it now possible to Show all Events in the map (like for the next 12 months).
Thx for the fix 🙂
Actually that is the next step in the maps Jens! We just wanted to sure the basic functionality can be activated again before adding other bells and whistles.
Thanks Ashan!
Hi Ashan,
I would like to know when are you going to create this funtionality of showing all events on the map. I had a project in mind, I bought your calender and addons and after paying the hosting and starting the project, i found that the map couldnt do that and is something that I need the most!! After that I found that other plugins do that already but I have already paid for this plugin! 😀
Please, let me know!
Thanks
Hi there, We are have deviced a solution and we are working on in – which is a great news. So please look for an update to maps addon end of July. That will allow all events.
My maps addon is installed but I’m having a challenge seeing the actual place-makers appear on the map. I can’t find clear directions to help me resolve this so here I am asking it here where I was originally looking for help to answer this dilemma lol. Thanks!
