2. I see so it would be more like custom fields dynamic filtering, like the one for profile field (graduation year) on the Geommunity3 map. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Yes, sort of except that the geolocation co-ords are worked out from the value in the K2 Extra field per article:
Example: K2 Extra Field: 'GeoCheckin_Address' = User input of '123 My Street, London, UK' which in turn creates the marker entry.
3. Geommunit3 will be launched by this weekend. Note Geommunity3 is a different product from Geommunity
Actually we're tryng to avoid integrating too many 3rd party extensions in Geommunity3 as we did on prior Geommunity. It made extension to heavy and hardly maintanable.
I think having different maps is not a problem especially as k2 places and ES users are distincts objects.
Also when it comes to displaying places and especially when looking for a place, it could be user unfriendly to have to filter users first etc...
We're not totaly closed when it comes to integrating 3rd party extensions into Geommunity3 (especially for CB as it's rather light when it comes to content varieties) but unless it becomes a top poular request, we'll provide that service as customization.
Yes, you do have point. any chance of Ajax, Clustering, module filtering on the GeoChecken map mod instead then. If not I am happy to pay for customisation of Geommunity3
