!Google Maps User
As explained before, the main use for ((Gmap|Google Map)) is to provide a way to store geolocations from user input easily, and provide an easy display of such a map.

!! Set up your coordinates
You can set up the coordinates of your location through "((MyTiki)) > Preferences > Personal Information", as Longitude and Latitud (in WGS84/Decimal degress).

If you don't know them, you can use the "Google Map Locator" link instead (__tiki-gmap_locator.php?for=user__)

^::{img src="img/wiki_up/googlemap_user_02.png" }::^

There, you have some buttons to make commons actions related to the Google Map for that user or for the whole tiki:

|| ::__Link__:: | ::__Action__ ::
''Back to preferences'' | Go back to your preferences screen
''Save clicked point'' | Save that point (__Longitude__, __Latitude__, and __scale__ fields, on the left of the button)
''Save current view as default'' | Save that view as the default for that user
''Reset to site-wide default'' | Save that view as the default for the whole tiki site
||

At last, you can see the users map through "__tiki-gmap_usermap.php__" (hibrid map in the screenshot: Satellite + Geographic Map):
