Smooth Locations

This plugin can be used to list locations. It adds a custom post type for locations, which can be manipulated via the admin panel. The locations can be displayed on a map and in a table. In addition, a search field can be added that allows users to search for relevant locations.

The functionality is added to a page or post via shortcodes:

• [smooth-location-map]
• [smooth-location-search]
• [smooth-location-table]

The settings can be configured by passing attributes to the shortcodes, like so:

[smooth-location-map width=”500px” height=”300px” …more attributes]

None of the attributes are required. The following attributes are available:

• width: defaults to “500px”
• height: defaults to “300px”
• center: defaults to “37.752530,-122.447777”
• geolocation: defaults to “false”
• maptype: defaults to “HYBRID”
• zoom: defaults to 7
• icon_url: url for different icon image
• shadow_url: url for shadow of different icon image

The same functionality is available via do_action() calls with the same name as the shortcode.

In addition, the following filters are available to modify the HTML output, if necessary:

• smooth_location_map_filter
• smooth_location_search_filter
• smooth_location_table_filter

1. Upload the smooth-locations directory to /wp-content/plugins/
2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
3. Place the relevant shortcodes on your posts/pages:
   • [smooth-location-search]
   • [smooth-location-map]
   • [smooth-location-table]
4. Add your locations in the admin panel under ‘Locations’

Alternatively, place the relevant do_action() calls in your theme/plugin.
