Hi, I am currently working in a project of a search engine of blogs based on Google Maps. We currently have some problems as we would like to have a pop-up window located on the cluster on the map. You can look at the link attached and see how it works. We would need to have a customized pop-up window that comes out on the map when the cluster is clicked. The info for the pop-up should appear in customized form with data fed from the database. The system does not work so well at the moment, so I would like to know if there is anyone with the necessary knowledge to help us.
Yes I agree with you. If you need to tweak what you already have, you can play with the javascript code and CSS for the popup. It's better to tweak it rather than going for completly new solution since what you already have is working fine.

Hi Ruchira,
thanks for your links.
However, none of the links is about pop-ups for clusters, unfortunately.
Regards,
Matteo

Hi Matteo,
Your current pop-up actually works fine. What's the problem with that?
Anyway, check the below link and see whether it will work.

Hi Ruchira,
thanks for your info.
It works almost fine, still we would like to make it better.
The article you have sent me is good, but there are not much info about pop-ups for clusters, only info about how to set up clusters.
It looks like there are not much info in the web about how to have pop-ups for clusters.
