Support Forum

Every time that you post a problem, PLEASE add the Joomla and the extension's versions and revisions (for example: Joomla 3.3.6, Contact Enhanced 3.3.5), PHP version and Server's Operating System. If you only manage only one site it is easier if you edit your profile and just add that information to your signature. Don't forget to add a detailed description of the problem. If possible, write down all steps to simulate the problem.

Before submitting a new post, PLEASE make sure you are running the latest version, test in different browsers (IE, FF, Chrome,..) and clear Joomla and browser's cache after every change you make.

Also, most questions are already answered in our FAQ and in iFAQ and Contact Enhanced documentation pages.

Could iStore use Leaflet Mapping

6 months 2 weeks ago #27070 by tapiochre
Hi there

Love the iStoreLocator - works like a charm but the fuss around creating Google Map API keys makes it problematic for some of my clients. Is there any plan or possibility that we could use an OpenSource Leaflet style of mapping engine instead of or as a choice with Google as an option, like see in the Contact Enhanced Mapping model? That would be very nice!

Dear Chris,

I hope this email finds you well. I wanted to discuss the current dependency of iStoreLocator on the Google Maps API. While I have plans to develop another extension that utilizes Leaflet and server-side clustering to effectively handle a large number of markers without compromising the performance of the script or site, I must admit that it is not currently at the top of my priority list.

However, if this is a project you are particularly interested in and would be willing to provide funding for its development, I would be more than happy to consider working on it. If you would like to further explore this opportunity, please feel free to reach out to me via email or just reply to this forum's new post notification email.

Thank you for your understanding, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,
Douglas Machado
