   Hi

   I want to know how to add the new wms layer.

   for example, from the list provided at leafletMaps Marker (http://www.mapsmarker.com/docs/list-of-possible-wms-layers/)

   I can add a WMS successfully.

   But since I am new user I dont know how to add from the other sources:

   source 1: http://www.skylab-mobilesystems.com/ger/wms_serverlist.html

   Source 2: http://geoserver.org/display/GEOS/Available+WMS+and+WFS+servers

   For instance, if I used source 2, very first link is:

   http://wms.jpl.nasa.gov/wms.cgi?Service=WMS&Version=1.1.1&Request=GetCapabilities

   Now how to extract elements (not sure about these two parameters)
   base url as:http://wms.jpl.nasa.gov
   format as: image/gif
   WMS version to use: 1.1.1

   Could you please help me

   Regards
   Sana

   Hi Sana,

   I tried to get the mentioned WMS service to work but didnt succeed either. I guess it is because as stated on http://wms.jpl.nasa.gov:
   This server no longer provides full WMS services for any of the datasets.

   Best thing if you want to get this layer to work is to get in contact with the guys/ladies at wms.jpl.nasa.gov.

   If you succeed, please add your layer to the doc on mapsmarker.com/wms

   Sorry for not being able to help you here, but WMS configuration really can differ from provider to provider and the best thing is to get in contact with them directly. Often, there´s a wiki or faq-list where you find the needed parameters. Anyway, in general the GetCapabilities-file (e.g. http://wms.jpl.nasa.gov/wms.cgi?Service=WMS&Version=1.1.1&Request=GetCapabilities) gets you a list of which layers are available.

   Regards,

   Robert

   Thanks for the quick reply Robert.

   But last time, I was trying to configure with different WMS providers (from source2:http://geoserver.org/display/GEOS/Available+WMS+and+WFS+servers) but no success. Only the list you made it (mapsmarker.com/wms) was working fine.

   Could you explain any example by picking up WMS server from the source 2 or another source (in relation to North America/Canada etc) and add it to the (mapsmarker.com/wms)doc or reply to me. So that I can understand how to configure it, what parameters need to used from URL string of WMS server etc.

   For instance:

   From my understanding, In Leaflet Maps Marker, I need 3 parameters for sure (if not, could you explain what parameters are compulsory?):

   1) base URL 2) format 3) version

   so If I use this WMS server URL string (http://www2.dmsolutions.ca/cgi-bin/mswms_gmap?VERSION=1.1.0&REQUEST=GetCapabilities), parameters require for the Leaflet Maps Marker WMS configuration will be (if not, could you please explain what parameters would be)

   Name: DM Solutions GMap Server

   Base URL: http://www2.dmsolutions.ca/cgi-bin/mswms_gmap

   VERSION=1.1.0

   Format (not sure) Or I have to ask to the providers about the format.

   Since I am new user of using WMS Servers, let me explore more about WMS URL string configuration until I get reply from you.

   Regards
   Sana

   Hi Sana,

   well - I am also quite new to WMS, so I don´t know all about it yet (although there is also a possibility, that there are still some bugs in my plugin;-)

   Nethertheless I got 2 different WMS layers working, as you can see here:
   http://www.mapsmarker.com/2012/01/05/demo-maps-with-wms-layers/

   Here´s the WMS configuration for the first map (Pegelstand Sachsen):
   baseurl: http://www.umwelt.sachsen.de/umwelt/infosysteme/ags/services/wasser/gewaesserpegelmessnetz/MapServer/WMSServer
   Layer: 0
   Format: image/png
   Transparent: TRUE
   Version: 1.3.0

   And here the configuration for the third map (US Weather):
   BaseURL: http://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/cgi-bin/wms/nexrad/n0r.cgi?
   Layers: nexrad-n0r-m45m
   Format: image/png
   Transparent: TRUE
   Version: 1.1.1

   My first guess was that there is a problem with WMS servers using .cgi in the baseurl - but that was wrong. So I don´t currently know, why some WMS layers don´t work. Please let me know, if you find something new!
   Regards,

   Robert

   Hi Robert

   Could you tell me why your export tools not working e.g., "Export as KML, etc.", when I click any of them, I got the message as follow:

   "The WordPress plugin Leaflet Maps Marker is inactive on this site and therefore this API link is not working".

   Could you explain little about this error.

   Best Regards

   Sana

   I changed the method for checking if the plugin is active in v1.4 (did I mention I hate how different paths can be? ;-) - please try again and tell me, if this solved your problem!
