| | 1 min read

Hey guys my requirement is to create a view attached with a map(highlight the map with the results) for that you have to enabling Location, GMap, views module.

Create a view display as page to get all results based on the search (normal exposed view to search). To add map to this result add one more display called 'attachment' to the same view and add all the fields that you added the display page and all the filter added in the display page (refer pic1,pic2).

Before doing following steps you have to set up location module (refer pic5).

1. Add a display attachment to the view
2. Select format as GMap
Set GMap settings:
a) Set Data Source as location.module
b) You can set the Marker / fallback marker to us as 'Big blue' (or anything that you would like to mark) (Refer pic3).
