Maps in SP Property functionality missing

Asked by Peter Dowse 2 years ago Last activity 2 years ago

Hi Guys,

It seems there's no map functionality in the SPProperty component.

The maps work and they display however, the ability to zoom, drag the map and have streetview working has been removed? I'm not sure why as it makes no use having a map feature if the functions of it are rendered useless (might as well just have a map image).

I've alleviated some of the isses by adding

.gm-style, div[aria-label="Map"], #spproperty-gmap-canvas {
    position: unset !important;
}

to my custom CSS however, the zoom function for the map is still disabled.
How do I go about enabling this?

It appears ChatGTP provides better feedback and assistance on this issue than the Joomshaper Support.

You have a line of code on line 15 in the file located at components/com_spproperty/assets/js/gmap.js

scrollwheel: false

Changing this to 'true' enables the map scroll function.

I would say thankyou - but I had to utilise AI to get assistance in fixing this.
I'm really not sure why you would disable this feature in a property component - seems silly to me.

So you're saying when you hover over the map and use the scroll wheel on your mouse, the map will scroll in and out, like it does on Google Maps?

Because all I saw in your video is you using the + and - signs to scroll.

I'm getting a little frustrated here as this is now the third time I've indicated that it's not the + and - signs that's the issue here, it's the MOUSE WHEEL SCROLL FUNCTION - NOT the + and - signs.

I'm really not sure how much clearer I can be??????

If you go to Google maps - you can scroll in and out using your the wheel on your mouse.

You can't do this with SP property.

You can scroll on a map that's been integrated with iframe code
eg: - https://mthothamproperty.com.au/contact you can hold down ctrl and scroll your mouse wheel on this map.

You can't do this with SP property.
