I’ve got a main category and some subcategories in it. Say, for example (all enabled for the map):

– Main
— Sub one
— Sub two

The Google Map on home page shows all the pinpoints with the icon assigned to the “Main” category. If I uncheck “Main”, then I see all pinpoints with the “sub one” or “sub two” category icons. With GeoTheme I could get into this approach by default (all categories active, but “Main” unchecked). But with GeoDirectory I can’t do the same because if I disable “Main” on [Geodirectory –> Design –> Map] all subcategories are also disabled.

I’ve tried to set, p.e., “Sub two” as the default category of a place, but it doesn’t take effect for the icon on the map.

So I think there are two approaches to get what I want:

• Let us uncheck a category, but keep the subcategories checked and enabled. <– I think this is the best option, it worked fine on GeoTheme.
• Use the default category icon as the icon for pinpoints instead of the parent category icon. <– Not sure, but this could be hard to develop, isn’t it?

Any advice on how to get what I want?

• mapa-no.png (GeoDirectory) <– Subcategories are shown because I’m displaying them with CSS, they are forever-hiden by default.
• mapa-si.png (GeoTheme) <– Subcategories visibility can be toggled using a small arrow in front of the main category name. The main category is unchecked bu default.

Thanks for notifying.

Thanks

Please advise ?

Thanks

Please, check the images attached in my last post here.

I need the result shown on the “mapa-si.png” (this is a screenshot of a GeoTheme installation). I need to show all items from subcategories each one with the subcategory icon. If I enable the main category, then all markers are shown with the main category icon and then we can’t distinguish visually which kind of place a marker is (example of this undesired behaviour: “mapa-si.png”).

I’ll send you access to my GeoTheme installation so you can compare how I achieved this on there.

I will check it and get back to u.

Thanks

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
	
    jQuery(window).load(function(){
        jQuery(".geodir_map_v3_home_map_2_map_category .main_list > li:first-child > input").trigger( "click" );
    });

</script>

This works for me because the category that has got subcategories is the first one on the list and the class name of my map is “geodir_map_v3_home_map_2_map_category”. Other configurations may need some tweaks, but anyone can improve this code as needed ;).

I will check this out.

Thanks
