Updating

If you update EXT:maps2 to a newer version, please read this section carefully!

Update to Version 4.0.0

We have added some new fields to maps2. So please go into Extensionmanager and open the configuration. Please check, if everything matches your needs and safe the configuration.

You have to clear the system cache, because of new fields in TCA.

We have renamed the field marker_icon from table sys_category into maps2_marker_icons and switched to FAL related images. Please execute Update script in Extensionmanager for maps2 to migrate your old images.

We have moved all JavaScript Code from page.includeJSFooter to page.includeJSFooterlibs, so now you have better options to override or append our/your custom JavaScript in TypoScript.

All methods of MapService have been migrated into GoogleMapsService. GeocodeUtility have been deleted. Please use getPositionsByAddress or getFirstFoundPositionByAddress of GoogleMapsService.

Update to Version 3.0.0

We have removed TYPO3 6.2 compatibility completely.

In f.e. germany it is not allowed to send the users ip address without his confirmation. That’s why we have added a new extension management configuration which can output a little form, where the user can accept sending his information to third party servers like Google to display the maps. This new feature touches nearly all methods, so, if you have extended maps2, please pre-check the new widget templates and actions. Maybe it’s good to have a look into the new GoogleMapsService class.

Update to Version 2.5.0

With version 2.5.0 we have solved a camelcase problem of the cache table. It was renamed from cf_maps2_cachedHtml to cf_maps2_cachedhtml. Please delete the old tables cf_maps2_cachedHtml and cf_maps2_cachedHtml_tags, deactivate maps2 in extension manager and activate it again.

Important

It does not help to rename these tables only.

Update to Version 2.0.0

Version 2.0.0 needs a Google Maps JavaScript ApiKey which has to be inserted in maps2 configuration of Extensionmanager (for BE usage) and in constants section of your TypoScript-Template (for FE usage). That’s why you have to insert the static template Maps2 (maps2) in your TypoScript Template now.

Furthermore we have updated the FlexForm of maps2 and removed the option for SwitchableControllerActions. With version 2.1.2 we have added an Update-Wizard in Extensionmanager which can do that job for you. In prior versions you have to remove that setting of each plugin in tt_content record field pi_flexform on your own.

Important

It does not help to open and save the record in backend!
