    Hi,

    thank you for your answer, but this is not what I meant.

    I would like to get a way of populating a map somewhere else with the marker generated by the global_map (for example scope=”today”) in events manager.
    => Our mobile app provides a map, that can be populated by external data. We would like these external data to be the markers created by EM in the global map. It refers to a .php file where the child contents would be location markers with some other informations…

    can I know what type of data do you need? e.g. json, rss

    can you give further details?

    thanks

    I would like an url providing json data to feed a map somewhere else with EM global-map markers.
    Example : on my WP website with EM installed, I display a global map with today’s events (locationsmap, scope=today). I would like to generate the same map from a mobile app, not just display my website page in the mobile app.
    I use buzztouch, with a location module :
    They say we can provide a data url :

    If you provide location data from a remote file there is not childItems array. Instead,
    the locations are pulled from a remote file then added to the map.

    {
    “itemId”:”1111″,
    “itemType”:”BT_screen_map”,
    “itemNickname”:”Location Map”,
    “navBarTitleText”:”Monterey Spots”,
    “dataURL”:”https://mywebsite.com/locationsForMap.php&#8221;
    }

    In this case the locations would come from a backend script at the dataURL. Loading
    the dataURL in your browser would produce output like this….

    {
    “childItems”:[
    {
    “itemId”:”D441703507867F328A084DF”,
    “itemType”:”BT_mapLocation”,
    “latitude”:”36.600723″,
    “longitude”:”-121.8928338″,
    “title”:”Location 1″,
    “subTitle”:”234 Del Monte Blvd Monterey CA 93940″

    Thank you for your help, I’m learning…
