Thread: Google maps question

Google maps question

I am interested in purchasing the Vantage theme but I have a question about the google maps function.

In the demo you have to enter an address to set the location butI am in a country that does not have address that work on Google maps so I need the ability to drag and drop the marker. is this function available in the theme?

Thank you in advance.

Vantage does not currently have a drag and drop marker as you describe at this time, however I have seen a customer mention a customization of this nature, so potentially it can be done, but this is not part of the default theme. Could you please advise what country specifically you refer to? Thanks.

I am located in Costa Rica, and the country actually doesn't have address' so there is not way to use this feature.

I saw a thread about this but am unable to read the responses so I can not actually tell if it can be accomplished. I would love to by the developer license but this theme can not be used in many Latin American countries if this is not possible.

Please advise.

Thanks for the clarification. Apparently we will be looking at a drag and drop marker for the v1.2 release, although it is not yet known when this will be (we are currently on v1.1.2). The customer whom I mentioned who has created this feature for Vantage did provide a working example in the thread. It was developed as a plugin by his own outside development team, however there was no indication of availablility for this to be a product available for others to purchase, so really all it showed was that it can be done.
