@martenwilmink You mentioned:
Option to add one or more StoryBooks to a Map in MODx Each StoryBook is presented as a layer in the StoryMap
I don't know how you envisioned having multiple layers in the StoryMap, but for now that would make things needlessly complicated I feel. So I flattened the StoryBook and StoryMap parts into just the StoryMap. This is a resource, containing a single story with multiple chapters.
The chapters can be added, sorted and edited with ContentBlocks as suggested. Each chapter is connected to a Place, which contains the actual geo coordinates. It's better and easier to fetch these from a database table directly, as opposed to fidgetting them in with ContentBlocks (which is more geared towards presentation).
Places can be added via a MIGX grid, accessible from the top menu. I'm still figuring out the best way to connect a Place to a StoryMap chapter, so please consider the current approach experimental :)
Issue description (i)
Ability for users to create StoryBooks in MODx via ContentBlocks. A StoryBook can be added as a layer to a StoryMap. A StoryBook can contain one or more Chapters, that are represented on a map with (custom) markers. A chapter is a content type in modx that is built with ContentBlocks. For each chapter we can determine the presentation. The chapters are shown in order and can be navigated by the user either scrolling through the content (i.e. from chapter to chapter), using next / previous buttons or dots navigation), or by clicking on a different marker which then scrolls to the related content bit.
