    Hi,

    I am using at the moment the free version of your plugin and would like to upgrade….but still I have a couple of questions (sorry, I am just a beginner…):

    1. Can I have a map in the sidebar, like a widget, showing me the position of the actual post.

    2. I want to show all points of all posts on one single map on my “browse by locations” page. Do I just have to write cat=-1 to show them all?

    3. Where do ich find the IDs of the categories? (These are the normal categories, that I use in wordpress?)

    4. Can I delete map points, the ones I created to do some tests? Otherwise they would appear on the cat=-1 map, right?

    5. What are these template pages you are taking about? Is it for websites not made with wordpress?

    thats all for now, thanks ??

    Hi,

    I’ll answer all your questions one by one:

    Q: Can I have a map in the sidebar, like a widget, showing me the position of the actual post.

    A: In the latest update of the premium version of plugin, is possible to insert the map in sidebar through widgets (the widgets are available in the menu option “Appearance / Widgets”). If you want that map displays the points associated to the post is visited, you should let empty the “category” box in the widget’s settings.

    Q: I want to show all points of all posts on one single map on my “browse by locations” page. Do I just have to write cat=-1 to show them all?

    A: Yes, that’s right, using the “cat” attribute to -1 you can display all points of website on map. The category attribute is available only in the premium version of plugin.

    Q: Where do ich find the IDs of the categories? (These are the normal categories, that I use in wordpress?)

    A: It is easy, go to the menu option “Posts / Categories”, select the category that you want know the ID, and look in the URL on browser, the parameter, tag_ID, it is the category ID.

    Q: Can I delete map points, the ones I created to do some tests? Otherwise they would appear on the cat=-1 map, right?

    A: The map with cat=-1 will display all points defined in your website. If you want remove a point, in the free version of plugin, go to the page/post where the point was defined, and deletes the point’s data, before press the update button of post/page.

    Q: What are these template pages you are taking about? Is it for websites not made with wordpress?

    A: The WordPress themes are created with template files, each of them are used depending of website section your are visiting, so, if you insert the shortcode directly in a template file, the map will be displayed each time the template file is used.
