<p>SWG Location Aware is a WordPress plugin that I created to dynamically serve content based on a user’s geographic location. I am using a third party service to render the IP address or location within the plugin. The four components I have for my plugin that allows it to dynamically change in the front end of a WordPress theme are widgets, pages and comments. These will give the reader different content based on the locations set in the administrative menu of the plugin. One limitation of this plugin is the accuracy of the smaller areas such as cities and zip codes. The third party service I am using is not able to render these locations accurately based on the information available from the visitor’s IP address. I am constantly working to improve and make additions to this plugin.</p>

<p>The Address Geocoder plugin lets you attach coordinates to your posts, pages, and custom post types. On your edit screens, simply enter an address into the metabox and hit “Geocode”.</p>
<p>This plugin uses Google Maps API v3 to translate an address to lat/lng coordinates. A Google Maps API key is required.</p>
<h3>Fequently Asked Questions</h3>
<h4>How do I retrieve the coordinates?</h4>
<p>Access your data in the loop using the following functions, with the post ID passed as a parameter. For the full coordinates (in brackets):</p>
<pre><code><?php echo get_geocode_latlng( $post->ID ); ?>
</code></pre>
<p>For the Latitude:</p>
<pre><code><?php echo get_geocode_lat( $post->ID ); ?>
</code></pre>
<p>For the Longitude:</p>
<pre><code><?php echo get_geocode_lng( $post->ID ); ?>
</code></pre>
<p>For the Address:</p>
<pre><code><?php echo get_geocode_address( $post->ID ); ?>
</code></pre>
