Dynamic categories are an add on feature that allows you to create custom URLs that pull locations from various categories. These links are great to use for special events, class schedules and more! A specific URL structure must be used to generate an accurate view.
The URL Structure :
<Base MAP.CONCEPT3D.COM URL>?id=<Map ID>#!col/<name_of_category_in_sidebar>:<concept3d_id_or_location_reference_id>:<icon>:<category_checked>:<category_expanded>:<optional_location_order>:<use_concept3d_or_reference_id>
Depending on how you want the information displayed some of the detail may be omitted.
|
<Base MAP.CONCEPT3D.COM URL> |
This will be the root URL. Most always map.concept3d.com |
|
<Map ID> |
The Client MAP ID |
|
<name_of_category_in_sidebar> |
This is the Display name for the Dynamic Category. It will appear in the sidebar, at the bottom. If you would like a space in the category name, use %20. As an example: test%20category |
|
<concept3d_id_or_location_reference_id> |
There are two types of Identifiers that are capable of being used. The first is the default location ID created by the CMS. The second is using the reference ID field within the location field. |
|
<icon> |
Select if you want a generic star icon, or numbers icons for markers on the map within your category. :0 = Default “Star” location pin :1 = Numbered icons |
|
<category_checked> |
Select if the Dynamic Category is checked (use 1) or unchecked (use 0) and if it is expanded (use 1), or if it is collapsed (use 0). :1 = Category checked :0 = Category unchecked |
|
<category_expanded> |
Select if the Dynamic Category is expanded (use 1), or if it is collapsed (use 0). :1 = Category expanded :0 = Category collapsed |
|
<optional_location_order> |
If you want to apply a designated order to the locations within your dynamic category, append a location order to the URL. :a-z = alphabetical :ordered = follow the order the marker IDs were entered in the URL Add nothing if you want the system to default order the locations |
|
<use_concept3d_or_reference_id> |
Append :r to the end or the URL if you are using the reference ID’s instead of Location ID’s for <concept3d_marker_id_or_location_reference_id> |
EXAMPLE:
https://map.concept3d.com?id=1216#!col/Event%20ABC:307984,307880,308146,307663,307990:0:1:1
