I'm updating an old site to 2.5 and I've encountered a couple of problems with hotspots:
- First one is my old link to the map is not working anymore. I was using a simple html module and the link was like so: index.php?option=com_hotspots&view=hotspots&Itemid=40
It simply points to a blank page with url component/hotspots/?Itemid=40
- No markers are showing up on the map if I go to the old link manually. The map is there with the welcome message and the categories but no hotspots on any of them.
When I upgraded none of my hotspots were there, I used the old version of the database and with the dump I had I renamed the changed column names and then I had them back in the backend, categories and all, but not in the frontend.
