LiteRadius Configuration
Summary
The Configuration page sets several key parameters enabling
LiteRadius to function on your web server. Configuration
variables are stored in the lr_xxx_config_vars database
table.
Database Table Manager
The database stores the names and addresses of your
distribution network in a set of data tables. Each data
table is similar to a spread sheet, where a row corresponds
to one location and a column contains specific location
information (i.e., name, address, phone, etc.). In database
parlance, one row of information in a table is known
as a record, and one column of information is known
as a field.
After establishing a database connection, the Data
Table Manager displays all LiteRadius data tables found
within the database. Table management functions enable
you to:
- create tables
- delete tables
- export data in the following file formats: *.csv.
*.xml, or *.kml
WARNING: Deleting tables may prevent
LiteRadius from operating properly and you may be required
to run setup.php to restore the system to its default
state.
NOTE: Re-creating (drop/create) the LiteRadius lr_xxx_users
table will reset all admin settings to their default
values.
Locator Page Preferences
Row Limit: The number
of locations returned for one search event.
Search Radius: The
maximum radius to which a search event will look for
locations.
NOTE: Style sheets used with the LiteRadius
locator ARE NOT automatically referenced. To include
one of the supplied css style sheets (or one of your
own) insert the following code snippet in the head of
your locator web page with an appropriate href path:
<link rel=STYLESHEET type=text/css href=path_to_css/style.css>
Map Preferences
Map preferences facilitate the presentation and display
of the map interface.
Location Markers:
The map icon used to represent your location data.
NOTE: Selecting Manual Marker will enable you to
manaully assign a marker to each location. In manual
mode, locations without a defined marker will be assigned
the Manual Marker Icon as default. You may assign
location icons by:
-
Editing a specific location.
-
Adding a new location.
-
Assigning markers to locations in
your master off-line database. During bluk upload
be sure to include the marker field in the upload
field settings.
Enable Cross Region Searches:
LiteRadius enables you to define specific search regions
like US and Canada. Enabling cross region searches will
return found locations from all regions. If disabled,
location searches will be restricted to specific regions.
(more on the region editor...)
Default Map View:
Centers the map at the respective map view and initializes
the locator to use this view as the default.
