USING PINS IN MAPS

Maps and Icons


Instuctions

To use the colored pins instead of the default teardrop shaped pins, when you create your map:

Replace the icon and icons parameters in your starting <googlemap> tag with:

icon="http://www.divineu.com/icons/pin.png" icons="http://www.divineu.com/icons/pin{label}.png" iconsize="32x32" iconanchor'"9x32" shadow="http://www.divineu.com/icons/pinshadow.png" shadowsize="59x32" iconlabels="blue,GH,green,orange,purple,red,white,yellow"

You can view the Edit source tab at the top of the page to see how I did it.

You will replace the lat and lon values with the coordinates that you want to be the center of your map.

The available pins are:

  • red
  • orange
  • yellow
  • green
  • blue
  • purple
  • white
  • GH (a guild hall or home)

To use the pins to mark a location you would do something like the following between your <googlemap> tag and </googlemap> tag:

(red)2115, 2900, Red Pin
(orange)2135, 2900, Orange Pin
(yellow)2155, 2900, Yellow Pin
(green)2175, 2900, Green Pin
(blue)2195, 2900, Blue Pin
(purple)2215, 2900, Purple Pin
(white)2235, 2900, White Pin
(GH)2265, 2900
/Info\
A guild hall or home pin.
/More\
You can place more information on tabs.


The /Info\ and /More\ create the tabs in the info box when you click on a pin.

You can't currently use letters with the pin markers, but you will be able to after I have time to create them. Then you could use something like blueG and it would show the blue pin with a G on it. I will update this when I've made the letters.
