issue with displaying map using mura tag

[deeztek]

I'm trying to utilize the MuraLocations using the mura tag like below, but nothing displays. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong. The contentID I'm using was taken from a MuraLocation page under the Advanced tab.

[m]$.muraLocations.dspLocationsMap(name='Some Name', contentID='6A44F396-48A9-4364-95DD7F15C105AC80')[/m]

@deeztek First, there's no name argument to pass into that function. Also, if you're passing in a contentid, it tries to find any Page \ MuraLocation content items in that area of the site.

I might first try to just use [m]$.muraLocations.dspLocationsMap()[/m] without any arguments first and see what happens.

Otherwise, without an error or a URL to check on, it's hard to give any further direction.

I tried without the name argument and it didn't work either. I did try the [m]$.muraLocations.dspLocationsMap()[/m] by itself and it displays correctly all the locations as it should.

here's the URL in question:
http://dev.visionexperts.com/services/optical-center/

It should display the following MuraLocation:
http://dev.visionexperts.com/locations/havre-de-grace/

Under the following section:

Locations
Havre de Grace Optical Center

2023 Pulaski Highway
Havre de Grace, Maryland 21078
410-942-9470
---> MAP SHOULD DISPLAY HERE <---

When you pass in a specific contentID, it looks for children of that specific content item, if it's a MuraLocation or MuraLocationsMap. That's why you're not seeing it. Instead, try passing in the parent's contentid. Although, you may get all MuraLocation content items that are children of that section.

Otherwise, you could do a couple of things to get a simple map ... the easiest would be to do this:
[m]$.dspSimpleMap(name='Some Location Name', latitude='someLatitude', longitude='someLongitude')[/m]

You can get the lat/long from your content item's info.

Hope that helps!

I tried the simple map method and it worked fine. However, when I tried to use two simple maps on the same page, it displays the map in the middle of the South Pacific Ocean for both locations:

So, I guess I can't use two simple maps in the same page for some reason?
