Locationmap

Draws a map and inserts points on the location. Has the ability to draw multiple maps. Only accepts PNG as input and output.

Loads a xml from the admin panel, which tells us the following:

• Image to load
• Image to use for plotting a location
• Locations
  • Title
  • x,y

a valid xml should look like the following:

Want to show the map? Just put in your template. Don’t want to hack a new template or existing template together ? Just put the following in your post: %locationmap: mapid% .

Font is the fine Semplice Regular from Style-Force. http://pixelfonts.style-force.net/

• Upload the plugin to your plugins folder, and off you go.
• Create a valid xml
• Add a call to locationmap(“myMapId”); to your template, or a parsable tag to a post / page.

• I’m getting no text or a warning about the font.

  • A. Did you specify the font tag ?

• I’d like to have feature x and y, can you implement this ?

  • A. Give me a try, and if I like it, ill add it. You can send your contributions to me, and i’ll add them if it fits the plugin.

• I want to define multiple maps, how do I do it.

  • A. Just define multiple blocks, be sure to have unique id’s for each map!
