Dear Martin,

thanks for your great Joomla Module. I started to build a Site for my opensource guidebook for Rome. I wanted to script about 50 custom pins with images in popups, but after the fifth pin it stopped to display the pins. I cant find a scripting error (I add ascreenshot of the backend) the website is: http://dominique.turzer.eu/ link to screenshot: sreen Is there a maximum nr of custom pins? I would be happy for any hint or help!! All the best, Dominique

Hi Dominique, there is no direct limitation of pins, but an indirect one. As i designed the module I didn't thought, that anybody would use it for displaying so many pins ;-) But now, there are users with over 200 pins.

The module settings are stored as one string in the database. The limitation is the length of this database column. The default datatype of the column is TEXT and has a max. length of 64kB. If you need more, you can change the datatype to LONGTEXT to get a max. length of 4GB. That should be enough, I think. (You have to change in table xxx_modules the column params)

But I'm not sure, if you reach the limit with 50 pins. Did you really make no syntax error?

best regards Martin

Hi Martin,

thanks a lot for your help! You were wright! I had a syntax error, probably a space to much in a coordinate, just yesterday evening I discovered the error and managed to write some more pins and I am very happy with your module, thanks again for your support.

all the best Dominique
