Works out of the box! Simple instalation and configuration. Can be use for a lot of things. And great support!

great module



Posted on 20 October 2011
I've installed the module without any problem on my joomla 1.7.2 website. Suggestions for improvement: (1) distance of the route, (2) brief description of the route.
Check the official website to see what can do the module.

If you have some problems, ask your question on the forum and you will have an answer in few hours.



Excellent module and excellent support !
Owner's reply: Thanks, but I think the new demo-site is more informative
The Google Maps API is powerful, but complex---inaccessible, really, to those of use without a technical or GIS background. ZH GoogleMap gives you access to all of power with both an elegant administrative interface and glitch-free front-end display.



From what I can tell, ZH GoogleMap lets you leverage just about every API option that Google Maps offers, including KLM and Place files. You can add unlimited locations, including text descriptions, links, and customizable icons and icon behaviors. Moreover, you can organization locations by category and collect them under icon groups, which greatly simplifies both the administration and front-end access to extensive location lists.



Component documentation is pretty spare---the developer doesn't really explain what options are or why you would/wouldn't want to use them. Still, the Google API itself is well documented, and a few searches can tell you everything you want to know.



In all, I can't rate this extension highly enough. It's a truly stunning development effort, both richly functional and intelligently designed. Over the past four years, I've tested and used literally hundreds of Joomla components. I've seen the good, the infuriating, and the ugly---and now I've been honestly delighted by ZH GoogleMap.
Worked first time with no issues. If you are looking at GOOGLE map and thinking.... OK, so a few people have given it 5 stars is it worth the hassle to download it? well, yes it is! SUPERB. THANK YOU.



I will be donating to your continued success.
Owner's reply: Thank you very much :)
Feature rich, easy to understand, and support is really fast.

Thanks for such a nice piece of software.

Easy, accurate, recommended

This was easy to set up (together with the plugin) and it is evident that a good deal of thought has gone into making this flexible, easy to use and largely intuitive.



It has very good functionality, uses the latest v3 API and (unlike another map extension) displays the correct location.



A great extension highly recommended. Thanks Dmitry.

Very nice component

I have been using Joomla for several years now, and I consider myself an intermediate to expert user. I really liked this component for the following reasons:

- No Ads,

- Easy to set up,

- Works on Joomla 1.6



Would love it more if it included road work or closures, but otherwise a very nice app. Thanks for your work on this!
Owner's reply: Thanks, can you explain about what you wish "included road work or closures". Can you pick me to example, may by I'm not all know about Google API

Super Support
