This extension module will add route functions to the Maps module. It also does a lot of caching to avoid problems with the limits of the API
You can use it as tags, so you can work with the route data, or you can put it directly as a polyline on the map.
Make sure your system meets the minimum requirements:
This version is a major update that can only be installed on top of version 2.x or higher. See https://addons.reinos.nl/news/maps-suite-3
For every paid addon you need to validate your license in order to activate the module.
On a local environment, like *.dev *.local *.localhost *.test the license is valid for testing and building a new or existing sites.
For every other domain, you need to have a valid license.
Once installed, you will asked to enter your license key. When you entered a valid license you can hit the "Save license" button. This will start validating your license and will redirect you to addons.reinos.nl to login into your account. You can also register a new account in this process.
Once logged in, you are asked to use your current account or to login with another one.
Using the current logged in account, the server will check all info related to your license and once valid, it will redirect you back to your site where you see either a success message or an error message.
This module is using a license field to check if the license for the module is valid or not. On addons.reinos.nl you can check your license and add your valid domains.
In the Module CP you can enter then your license
When you enter a wrong license, the module will not work and it shows you an warning
Sometimes it happens that the license system says you have an invalid license. When this happens, make sure you have entered your domain url in your account, next to your license on addons.reinos.nl.
If this will not fix your license problem, please contact us on https://addons.reinos.nl/support

You need at least v2.0.0 or higher to upgrade to this version. Inside all v3.x.x releases, there is a v2.x.x. release. You can use this version to upgrade to the latest v2.x.x and after that upgrade you are good to go to update to v3.x.x. Remember, its just replacing files and hit the upgrade button. There is no other action required, it's that simple (but required).
reinos_ due the release of the EE store (\Breaking changes)***Note: There is a change you will have to validate the license again
\Note:** Because the module has been renamed with a prefix reinos_ there is an update path
by simply add the new update to your site and install it. By installing the module, you are disabling the old module
that can be deleted afterward. Also note that you have to rename the module calls and hooks with a prefix reinos_
See this article about the rename https://addons.reinos.nl/news/modules-renamed
