Quick Overview

This module creates a widget for displaying all the latest announcements made on the forWhereiAm platform by your organisation (and any of its associated branches) for a given user's location. This module interacts with the forWhereiAm API and implements the client-side flow.

The forWhereiAm platform allows any organisation to target their online and mobile communications from a country wide region, right down to a single postcode. The messages are only seen by users who are in the regions explicitly targeted. Currently forWhereiAm only supports the UK market.

This module adds a jQuery plugin to your site which performs client-side flow requests to forWhereiAm announcements API. It fetches announcements for a given user's location, and displays them in a list form, ordered by the newest announcement at the top. This module can also communicate with the forWhereiAm API to fetch the full details for a given announcement, or optionally rate an announcement where rating of an announcement has been enabled.

This module uses Google Maps v3 API for rendering maps, if enabled.
This module uses AddThis for displaying social sharing buttons for an announcement, if enabled.
