I am astonished that this plugin worked for you. I just tested it and it was not working at all - it was giving a php error.
I've updated the plugin and you can find it here:
compojoom.com/downloads/downloads/hotspots/miscellaneous
However, it won't solve your problem
The problem is that no id is saved into the database when you add a hotspot from the frontend. To fix this - you will have to edit
components/com_hotspots/view/all/addspot.php
and add just after the
defined('_JEXEC') or die('Restricted access');
this code:
$user = & JFactory::getUser();
at the end it should look like this:
defined('_JEXEC') or die('Restricted access');
$user = & JFactory::getUser();
Now when you enter a new hotspot the cb plugin should show it.
This fix will be included in beta2
Cheers,
Daniel
