I mean, an option where the apps looks for map location within the app and tells the user the nearest location(s). Thanks Title Comments Hey, I have an app about castles and in each castle you have a few option including loading a map plugin with its location and driving directions via native app. How can I add the option of "finding castles near me"?

As seen in the post, the hard thing is having it do something when you click a location. I added coordinates in the control panel, and then got the file with all in the info. It looks like this: {"childItems":[ {"itemId":"12A116B536651A81E89850E", "itemType":"BT_mapLocation","latitude":"38.70175", "longitude":"-7.4043", "title":"Castelo de Alandroal", "subTitle":"Castelo de Alandroal", "loadScreenWithItemId":"7D7217A4964BEB7ABFD25B3"}, etc..... I have no idea how to create or change the php file to read this info. Thanks. Comments Hey, thanks, I've read it. It seams easy to do if I only want to show locations near me.
