WP Geo 3.0.9

Wednesday, 29th July 2009

Some extra features…

You can now add width and height parameters to the categoryMap() function and shortcodes, and the Danish language has been updated.

Shortcode

You can specify either a width or height parameter (or both). If you just enter a number, the width will be set in pixels. You can also specify a percentage as illustrated below:

[wp_geo_map width="50%" height="200"]

Category Map

With the category map function, you can pass width and height arguments as a string:

$wpgeo->categoryMap('width=75%&height=200');

Latitude & Longitude Shortcodes
A few extra fixes and features that didn’t quite make it into version 3.0.7:

  • Firefox scrolling bug fixed.
  • Added longitude and latitude shortcodes.
  • Marker on maps in admin now update as you manually change longitude and latitude.
  • Added setting to show maps on search result page.

WP Geo 3.0.5

Saturday, 17th January 2009

This is a minor WP Geo update with a few extra features:

  • Added way to escape shortcode [wp_geo_map escape="true"]
  • CSS Max-width image fixed added.
  • Italian language added.
  • German language updated.

It adds Italian language support and updated German language support.

The shortcode ‘escape’ parameter allows you to write the shortcode as text instead of it displaying a map (although recently I discovered another plugin wpNSC which probably does this better).

It also reinstates the CSS Max-width image fix. Many WordPress Themes seem to have a CSS styles which sets the max-width of images to 100%. Unfortunately this seems to break Google Maps. Previously I removed this as it breaks the display of the map scale (if you have selected to show it in the options). However, there seem to be so many themes that use max-width:100% for images that I though it better to include the fix by default with the option to remove it if you really need to show the map scale.
