Every time that you post a problem, PLEASE add the Joomla and the extension's versions and revisions (for example: Joomla 3.3.6, Contact Enhanced 3.3.5), PHP version and Server's Operating System. If you only manage only one site it is easier if you edit your profile and just add that information to your signature. Don't forget to add a detailed description of the problem. If possible, write down all steps to simulate the problem.

Before submitting a new post, PLEASE make sure you are running the latest version, test in different browsers (IE, FF, Chrome,..) and clear Joomla and browser's cache after every change you make.

Also, most questions are already answered in our FAQ and in iFAQ and Contact Enhanced documentation pages.

Multiple Instances at Same Page

7 years 1 month ago #23003 by zsimaiof
Hi again.
I want to have a page with multiple instances of maps with different source.
For example, one from a csv file and another from another csv.

Each map will be embedded inside a tab (GavickTabs) i tried to achieve this but although the first map at the first tab, loads correctly, the seconda tab does not.
Why can that be and how can it be solved?

Dear zsimaiof,

iStoreLocator like all Google Maps extensions rely on quite a few lines of javascript and the Google Maps loads a lot of images, therefore loading twice would slow down the page load considerably. Therefore iStoreLocator was not designed to be loaded multiple times in a single page.

Also, loading Google Maps API on a non-active tab requires additional coding because Google Maps does not load properly if it is "hidden". It is not a lot of coding, however it has to be triggered when the user clicks on that specific tab. It is something I cannot add to the source code because each tab "system" is different (GavickTabs, JoomlArt, RocketTheme, Plain Bootstrap, plain jQuery,...).

I hope you understand.

Best regards,
