KML marker windows/ballons missing (Joomla 4) / KML marker windows/ballons werden nicht angezeigt

Post by andiwo »

I've a huge kml-file included in the map, the markers are shown, but the marker windows/ballons with further information are not showing up if clicking. The phoca map is within an article and the kml-file is created from a database with adresses by a php script:
http://j4.weizenwelt.de/index.php/weizenweltkarte
You could download the kml-file there and if I check the kml-file with another viewer, everthing is fine e.g. https://kmlviewer.nsspot.net/ or with google earth

Hi, the problem is, Phoca Maps does not have any feature or tool how to control the KML, it is just loaded into Google Maps and parsed by Google Maps rules :idea:

Hi,
so you suggest it's a kml (syntax) problem ? But checking the kml file with any other kml viewer (google earth or https://kmlviewer.nsspot.net/) shows no errors...

Hi, I don't know if there can be some KML (syntax) problem, but the feature is just rendered by external server, not by your server so it is hard to debug soemething on your site.

What can be check

- in html source code - if the path to the kml file is OK
- in developer console - if there is no error set by the API which prevents from displaying the right format

When this is OK, then the KML is just loaded to external server API and there it will be displayed in the map (and it is hard to say what will happen there :idea: )
