A new version of the JMaps Google Mapping Module has now been released that is compatible with Joomla 1.5, 1.6, and 1.7.

Joomla 1.7 is here! SOBIPro and Virtuemart 2.0 are coming soon. In honor of the changing landscape for Joomla software, CorFun is pleased to announce our Summer Sale!

This question comes up frequently and the answer is, "Yes." But not by itself of course. JMaps is a Joomla module and a system of plugins, so it needs to work with other applications. JMaps has been used by many businesses to offer searchable point of sale locators on their websites. Below is a list of the software they used to do it. 

JMaps, the highly ranked Google mapping solution for Joomla, SOBI2, and Community Builder is on sale 30% off until the end of June, 2011. This sale is on the entire suite, as well as the smaller packages. JMaps supports mapping for:

• SOBI2 Search Results
• SOBI2 Category Listings
• Community Builder User Lists
• RSS Feeds
• KML files
• Custom XML files

JMaps includes both a module and a series of plugins for Community Builder and SOBI2.  For more information about JMaps, please visit the JMaps product information page by clicking here.

You have a SOBI2 Directory with both category listings and a search page that serves up great results. Your directory may be of businesses, or products, or even people. Regardless of what you are listing in your SOBI2 directory, one thing is certain. You want people to browse multiple listings to make sure they get all the relevant information they need. But how can you encourage users of your directory to actually look at more entries? The trick is to keep the user on the page with all the category or search listings and load the details in a Shadowbox popup!
