# What does it do? {#what-does-it-do}

The extension enables you to show tt_address locations in responsive Leaflet maps. There are no registration and no API-keys necessary!
You can do a radial search for locations and display them in a list and a responsive Leaflet map with infoWindows.

For the geocoding, the extension uses [https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org](https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org) which is limited to 1 request per second. This may
change in the future...

In template AjaxSearch.html you can set other map types. You can find openstreetmap providers at
[http://leaflet-extras.github.io/leaflet-providers/preview/](http://leaflet-extras.github.io/leaflet-providers/preview/)

A single view of the location is implemented, the ajaxSearchResultList items are linked to the single view which shows just a map with one marker.
This can be used also to display just a map without doing a search when the locationUid is given
in the constants of myleaflet with the constant editor of TYPO3.

## What's new? {#what-s-new}

Marker icon sizes can be set with the constant editor.
Categories are sorted by field sorting.
Localization of catgories and tt_address records implemented.
New configuration option "categorySelectMode" implemented -> see administratormanual.
Mapicon handling changed. The directories fileadmin/ext/myleaflet/Resources/Public/Icons are created if they don't exist.
Insert here your mapIcons. These icons can then be selected in the tt_address record (leafletmapicon).
The templates AjaxSearch.html and Show.html changed.
