I am using Store Locator Plus plugin for showing locations of stores, and plugin works fine. But now i need to create another map for distributor's location. So how can i use this plugin to create 2 maps at a time, something like i could divide the locations into 2 maps. Or can i use this plugin twice in an application, like renaming kind of things.
Please help.
Store Locator Plus supports multiple maps which can filter locations by categories. You can do this with the Tagalong add-on pack to add managed categories or Pro Pack add-on pack if you need simple free-form categories.
You then assign the category / tag "red" or "blue" to each location and use the shortcode filters:
[slplus only_with_tag="red"] on one page or [slplus only_with_tag="blue"] on the other.
Full documentation and examples are on the website at http://www.storelocatorplus.com/. You should also post questions like this in the forum. While I do use Stack Overflow regularly I answer support questions much more quickly at the support forum:

I can't seem to find this anywhere - there's examples with open street maps, and hints to using mapbox but otherwise I'm wondering what other maps and url's are available?
This one gives a lot of examples (taken from above comments gis.stackexchange link) : https://leaflet-extras.github.io/leaflet-providers/preview/
The must is that you can preview everything.
There is definitely no such exhaustive list of Tile Providers, but there are plenty other resources listing quite a bit of options.
Strangely, it indeed looks like they cannot be found under such an explicitly stated question yet.
Here are a few:
R leaflet Language of the map : Can we specify to use English language
How to use a different tile provider in openlayer3
on GIS Stack Exchange: https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/184125/alternative-basemaps-for-leaflet/268290
and of course the official Leaflet plugins page, which has a section for basemap providers: https://leafletjs.com/plugins.html#basemap-providers
The main reference with very nice live preview is the leaflet-providers demo page (although you do not need to use that plugin at all in the end):
https://leaflet-extras.github.io/leaflet-providers/preview/
An extension to Leaflet that contains configurations for various free1 tile providers.
And with the note (emphasis mine):
What do we mean by free?
1 We try to maintain leaflet-providers in such a way that you'll be able to use the layers we include without paying money. This doesn't mean no limits apply, you should always check before using these layers for anything serious.
i'd like to ask about your idea how we can implement a map navigator in SAPUI5? For example, we need to get the current location of the user, then suggest the nearest fastfood around him. Is this possible in SAPUI5?
yes its possible.. Search in the internet and come up with something.
Get started here: http://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_geolocation.asp
http://demos.jquerymobile.com/1.4.0/map-geolocation/
It is possible to integrate map API into a SAPUI5 application. Firstly you need to decide which map provider should be used in your case. for example, if you want to use google map you can refer to this blog https://blogs.sap.com/2014/07/01/google-maps-library-for-ui5/
But SAPUI5 library provides a map control to integrate with geo map. you can refer to http://veui5infra.dhcp.wdf.sap.corp:8080/sapui5-sdk-dist/test-resources/sap/ui/vbm/bestpractices.html
You can use either SAP controls for that, for example this one:
sap.ui.vbm.GeoMap
Or you could pick any free JS third-party library and integrate it with your sapui5 view.
(There are many threads explaining how to use third-party libraries in sapui5).
I am just wondering is there any plugin to create dynamic content for a page i.e something similar to a data repeaters in .net. To make it simple it should be a section that should contains 5 to 6 fields/property like
heading
heading 2
image
content - rich text editor
info
This must be in repeatable control so that the editor can add any number of these section a page and all these should be displayed in a single page.
Is there a plugin for the above functionality or what is the best way to achieve this.Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Aneesh
You can achieve this without any plugins.
Create your repeatable section (containing the relevant fields) as a document type, and then use the multi-node picker in another document type to select one or many of the sections.
So for example, I could have a FAQs page (which uses a document type called "FAQs Page"), and I want to be able to add multiple question and answers to this page. I could set up a document type called "Question". This will contain two fields: Question and Answer.
On the "FAQs Page" document type, I would add a multi-node picker field called "Questions". This way, an author could select multiple "Question" nodes to appear on the FAQs page.
You would obviously need the code to output this, and also you would create a data type that inherited from multi-node picker, so that you could limit the selection to only Question nodes.
There is also the Repeatable Custom Content datatype which works well but does not support all data types. But it does support all the ones you need for your stated purpose (textstring, media picker, richtext area, etc).
You can find it here: http://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/repeatable-custom-content I've used it a few times and it works really well in certain situations (e.g. where the items will not be shared across different pages of your site).
If you are sharing content components across multiple pages then #Digbyswift's solution is perfect.
I've always Digbyswifts method, but whilst looking for an alternate solution tonight I found this plugin, which is excellent for those situations where creating lots of widget nodes feels like overkill. It's licensed but the free older version is also available.

How to make filter by specific columns available to data lists in Alfresco Share? Version is Community 4.0. I've tried the existing solutions like fme datalist extension answered here but it has some issues which require customizing the code more than I've got time and expertise. For instance, it loses all custom lists. I tried to add the list definitions from the XML configuration to the embedded definitions but it made the whole site crash.
Is there any other way to achieve filtering? The specific case is that I've got a list which has like ten or so columns. I want to make one or two of them filterable by providing a simple drop down menu of unique values.
Unfortunately it is not possible to filter data-list items out-of-the box in Alfresco Share. The FME extension is the only solution I have seen which will do that for you.
I just want to build a drill down map like this - Drill Down Map
Here I want to show some data on tapping of each regions.I am out of clue. How can I ? What should I use ? From where to start ?
EDIT : In the link it's showing the country name on mouse over, instead of that I want to show some data/info of the country on touch. Please visit the map shown in the link,you'll get the whole idea.
Thanks !!
If you want total control on the map layout, and be able to check which country the users taps, there's no secret : you need to have boundaries of all countries you want to detect.
Here's the global approach I would use to reimplement something that looks like the map you linked to (I can you into more details if you want, but at first, here's the global approach) :
Get the data of the boundaries of the countries you need. This can be done using OpenStreetMap.org data.
[EDIT] I just came accross this website to download countries boundaries as files you can then use with tilemill : http://www.gadm.org/country
Use this data with tilemill (http://mapbox.com/tilemill/) : this tool is able to design maps using a language that looks like CSS but dedicated for maps. The results is great and the tool great as well. This tool also support shapes files, so if you can get the countries boundaries as shapefiles, you'll be able to use them with tilemill, and this will be easier than using .osm files from open street map). Have a look here http://mapbox.com/tilemill/data/ for the supported formats.
Then, with tilemill, export your map as an MBTile file (this file contains all tiles needed to get the map rendered at different zoom levels).
Use the route-me project to display the resulting MBTile file (in its latest version, route-me is able to do that, this feature has been implemented by the mapbox team to support their open format MBTile).
Guys from Mapbox have published a good tutorial "from data to maps" here : http://mapbox.com/demo/making_massredistrict/ this may help as well
Your best bet is to use CloudMade ( http://cloudmade.com/ ). They provide custom map builders program where you can build custom maps and can integrate those maps in your iOS app.
Depends what you are looking for. To implement the linked example it's enough with a giant image that you can split in tiles using CATiledLayer. You'll find examples if you google a little, PhotoScroller is one. If you want to display real maps you have to investigate the route me project.
I don't think that using images could be good option.Check this link - arcgis-iphone api. I am not so sure but you can get some idea from this.
Happy to help..
