Directions not working...

Hey all, So I was able to get maps to work with Android, but I haven't been able to get directions to work when you tap on the address, I get no response. Is there something I'm missing? Has anyone solved this problem? Thanks in advance!

Glad to know it worked for you guys. FYI, I saw a post a week or so back by Susan Metoxen and she thought she had fixed the plugin, but I haven't tested the latest myself. Worth checking you are on the latest.

I messaged Susan as she has fixed the iOS implementation only - Android still has the issues.

My Location Map iOS7 and Android work fine for directions. Took a minute for me to figure out the new native Maps for my iPhone 5S. The Android map loaded very slowly, but then came up direct with the directions menu, whereas the iPhone native Map had a hard to find menu option at the bottom for directions. Self Hosted 3.0. Built June 7.

I do have an appearance bug with the iOS7 Location Map: The current-location pulsating bubble is BLACK, rather than the native BLUE. The Android is blue, but doesn't pulsate. Since there any number or reported bugs or discrepancies in Plugins that are not being acknowledged to being worked on, what resource do we new App coders use to try to find the fix? Something changed in iOS7, or BT 3.0. I wish there was a Forum just to report these bugs. In the meantime, I guess it would be good for me to learn more about iOS7 and Android from some source. e.g. I constantly refer to PHP.net for updates to commands in that coding language. What is the iOS7 and Android equivalent source authority?

I look to stackoverflow.com, but then I am not a code. I find it a very useful place though.

Stackoverflow is quite useful. I have used it for many years now. How time flies! It used to be "months ago," now it is "many years" ago! Sometimes I have to be wary of the "validity" and "credibility" tests one should use anytime finding info on the net. I find plenty of misinformation on Stackoverflow... but eventually, I find the working answer. Sometimes, I read the question, then scroll to the bottom and read up! The answer is often at the bottom! And often after some kind of domestic dispute between posters. I write my own PHP code (with Javascript/JSON from time-to-time) on LINUX. So, I have to weed out the prevalent Drupal hackers, and all the Windows various users. The two factors I face here: 1) Where is, what is, the iOS7 and Android source authority for structure of commands, and 2) How to then apply fixes to the BT interface? We're $90 BT members, because BT prepares the Core and has Plugins... but not all of either work.
