USING ALTERNATE ICONS IN MAPS

Please let me know if you have any questions, I'd be happy to help.

Explanation

When you create a map it inserts code into your page using the <googlemap> begin tag and the </googlemap> end tag. By default the maps use those teardrop shaped icons. To use different icons, you have to add a few parameters to the <googlemap> begin tag or use full labels for each individual marker.

If you would like changes to existing markers or custom markers, please /chat Mayanah.

Figuring out the parameter for the icon you want

There are a few different types of icons with a few different colors. The icons do have a naming convention. They all start with the name marker.png To use other types of icons this is the format (without the square brackets): marker[TYPE][COLOR][INDICATOR].png

Here is a table of the current available icons:

Type	Type Code	Color	Indicator	Examples	Code

Simplified Use of Sets

If you'd like to use just one set of markers you'll need to add the following code to your <googlemap> begin tag:

icon="http://www.divineu.com/markers/marker.png" icons="http://www.divineu.com/markers/marker{label}.png" iconsize="32x32" iconanchor'"9x32" iconlabels=" ''the list of identifiers goes here: ie. A,B,G,T,fish,bee,"

It actually goes in the tag, so it will look something like this: <googlemap icon="ETC, ETC"> You can also remove any of the iconlabels that you are not using.

Mine Specific

These are a set of teardrop and pin markers created specifically for mine and dowsing maps. There are indicators using both the Element abbreviation for each metal and a simple text abbreviation. (Thank you Fez for asking for them.)
