I would like to see a way to customize the look of the info window to include color, or use a specific image, color of type, size of type, add a photo a bold title, and a link to an information page on that location.

I have done this in other scripts, but can't get that code to work with this extension.

QuoteThanks, I did that, was wondering if I could change the background color of the window and a border around the window, that I haven't been able to accomplish. Is that possible, can you help me a little as to how to do that.

Also, which is very important. I am able to get the maps to show up on the mobile whenever I go to them directly. But when I link to them through a jquery to the #_____map they come up blank. Is there a piece of code I need to put in to make them show up through the link. This is baffling me.

Do I qualify for the update on the program, since I bought it less than a month a go?

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Hello Sherry Bell Dukes,

You can have a custom styling of the window ( except the outer border) by applying style properties to a class named
gmap_marker

Please, explain in greater details you way of linking to the map and pass a test page link.

Updates which are with unchanged General number ( 1.0.0 - 1.9.9) are free. If the version is 2.something then it most of the times is payed.

Hello,

you can use html code within the info window so you can include images, bold text and links.

Can I put PHP into the Info Windows like IF or so? Or just the Echo that is created by the lightning?

Hello Denis.

The info window can be used with echo that is created by the lighting.
Can you describe a little bit more detailed your idea for using IF statement in the window?

Hi Vulcho,

I like to enter something like this


<?php
  if ("".$row_bands['image']  ."" != "") {
?>
    <a href="/<?php echo $row_bands['urlName']; ?>"><img src="artistImages/map/<?php echo $row_bands['image']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $row_bands['name']; ?>" /></a>
    <?php
  }
?>


Cheers,
Denis

Hello Denis,

That should work. Just enter it through the UI so a correct escape is applied to the special chars.

Regards.
