Implemented Override query-less Index and Category Maps to set Fetch Type and Marker Limit

This was funded by two IMS license holders

This has been implemented (Beta) in IMS 2.2.19

This is a NON supported feature (which means you are on your own using it).

This enhancement allows Admins to bypass the query-less maps for IMS Index and IMS Category Pages via 2 new global options and 2 new per category options.

In this shot, you can see the new global options that have been added to the Index map options.

How this works is that when the LIMIT is set to 0 (default), the system will use the result set from the page itself (for a query-less map).

To BYPASS the query-less map, you set a limit and a sort by type (similar to what you do for Full Page Maps). So if you want to display a 1000 map markers on the IMS Index, you'd set the limit to 1000, and then choose the sort type for the Fetch.

Note: In some cases, you will need to RE-SAVE your CAS options so that the new option keys are set!

To BYPASS the query-less category map, you set a limit and a sort by type (similar to what you do for Full Page Category Maps). So if you want to display a 2500 map markers on the Category X, you'd set the limit to 2500, and then choose the sort type for the Fetch.

That's it in a nut shell... Just remember, to disable the query-less maps, you simply set the new LIMIT options and set the sort type to fetch the results by.
