StoreLocator

This is a user-contributed Extra. If you find issues or would like more info or help, please contact the author.

What is StoreLocator?

StoreLocator is a snippet that integrates Google Maps into MODX® to allow your users to find stores (or whatever location you want them to find) that are close to an address (their home for instance). StoreLocator is easily integrated in your website and is fully customizable.

StoreLocator is created and maintained by SCHERP Ontwikkeling.

Requirements

StoreLocator required MODX® Revolution 2.2.0 or later.

History

Version Release date Author Changes
1.0.0-PL1 March 6th, 2012 Patrick Nijkamp (SCHERP Ontwikkeling) Initial release.
1.0.1-PL1 March 10th, 2012 Patrick Nijkamp (SCHERP Ontwikkeling) Fixed noResultsTpl
1.1.0-PL1 March 22th, 2012 Patrick Nijkamp (SCHERP Ontwikkeling) New placeholders

Download & Installation

Install the package through the MODX® package manager.

Using StoreLocator in the manager

Adding stores

To add a store, simply log in to the manager and click "Components" -> "Store Locator". Once in the StoreLocator you will see the page "Manage stores". Now click the button "Add store location" and you will see the following window:

From there you can add a store by filling in the description, longitude and latitude coordinates and select the resource you want to link this store to. The resource will be assigned to the storeRowTpl so you can use all it's data to show the needed placeholders in the front-end. If you don't want to enter the coordinates by hand simply type the address next to the "Address:" box and click search. The script will then post your query to Google Maps and get the coordinates for you.

Sorting stores

To sort stores log in to the manager and go to "Components" -> "Store Locator". You will see a grid containing all of your stores, you can just pick up a single row and drop it where you want it to be.

Using StoreLocator in the front-end (user side)

Examples

Below you see the main snippet call and the placement of the placeholders. Every parameter is optional, we have just used some possibilities of customization.

[[!StoreLocator?
  &searchZoom=`10`
  &zoom=`7`
  &markerImage=`/assets/mcdonalds.png`
  &width=`640`
  &height=`480`
  &centerLongitude=`5.509644`
  &centerLatitude=`52.469397`
]]

<table>
   <tr>
      <td style="width: 640px;">
         [[+StoreLocator.map]]        <!-- This shows the google map -->
      </td>
      <td style="vertical-align: top;">
         [[+StoreLocator.form]]       <!-- This shows the search form -->
         <hr />
         [[+StoreLocator.matchedStores]] / [[+StoreLocator.totalStores]] <!-- This shows number of found stores / total stores -->
         [[+StoreLocator.storeList]]  <!-- This shows the list of stores and search results -->
      </td>
   </tr>
</table>

YouTube example

Here's an example of the usage and placement of the snippet call: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__5Oi4Tqz50

StoreLocator premium

You have the possibility to buy StoreLocator premium through the about screen in the component. This will add the following functionality:

  • Custom caching (storelist and search results)
  • Custom marker images for each individual store
  • Possibility to get directions from the entered address to a store from the StoreLocator screen
  • A snippet that can plot directions to a specific store from an entered address.

Check out the video demo:
