GeoPress is a plugin for blogs to easily embed maps in posts, maps of all posts or in a category location Microformats, GeoRSS and KML.
GeoPress is currently available for WordPress or Movable Type blog engines.
Hi all: i'd like to know how to change the order in which the posts are showed into infobubbles. If you look at my website: http://wikiroma.it you will see that the order in which post are showed into location bubbles is wrong: it start descending, then becomes ascending. For example if i've published 10 post for a location , where 10 is the number of the newer post, the order is: 5,4,3,2,1,6,7,8,9,10
So I have wordpress 2.7 with the geopress plugin installed and I can add address locations to the posts, but the map does not appear in admin view and there is nothing on the posts. The georss includes the geotag which is great, but I would really like to see the maps - particularly in the admin view ... I can see the geomap div in firebug - I've checked in Safari, Camino, FF, IE and can't see it in any of them - I assume this is some sort of install problem. Any ideas? Many thanks in advance CHEERS> SAM
Hello everybody. I need to use GeoPress plugin on my wordpress blog but when NextGen Gallery (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/n...) and Geopress plugins are activated at the same time, thumbnail creation in NG Gallery hang on 0%. If I deactivate GeoPress, NG Gallery works fine. Anybody found a workaround?
If anybody try to solve this issue, here is a hint: my geopress plugin was set up to display a virtual earth map. On the thumbnail creation page, I can see in the status bar of my web browser that the page tries to connect to an address that looks like dev.virtualearth.com and then the thumbnail creation hangs.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks!
Geopress doesn't work on Explorer, this browser show an error message over the pages where the map are plotted, blocking the page and closing it. Any idea about the problem?
Who will build the missing link between Geopress and location awareness browser plugins like Google Gears Geolocation and Mozilla Geode? I geotag my content in my WOrdpress blog but want users to be able to voluntarily disclose their location through their browser and receive content based on locations nearest them. We're so close to enabling every blogger to build their own Outside.In Radar style proximity content service... I really want to be able to do this!
Hey, I'm just trying this out, so sorry if I'm asking a stupid question. But the GeoPress pages say you should be able to output KML to view content in Google Earth etc - how do you do that? Is there a link you can use to simply get all the geotagged posts in a kml format, like the KMLExport extension in MediaWiki?
I tried using the INSERT_ADDRESS, INSERT_LOCATION tags in my posts and they didn't work. INSERT_MAP worked fine. Looks like a filter for the function was left out of Version: 2.4.3
Fix is to install the filter manually in geopress.php
Under line 1170:
add_filter('the_content', array('GeoPress', 'embed_map_inpost'));
Is there a date when WP 2.6 or 2.7 will be supported by this plugin? We're about to embark on some geotagging and geosearch stuff, and this could be a useful foundation. If necessary, we'll update the plugin. But if it's already in-progress, no need to duplicate effort.
I noticed that if we create a new post and add a GeoPress location, the first time, everything is find. However, let's say that we later find that the location we created is a bit off target and we go back in and move the map market and adjust the coordinates in the post; when we save the post it creates another location. In other words, it does not overwrite the original, inaccurate, location. There is no option to overwrite.
When we go into the Locations settings in the WP control panel, there is no easy way to delete the wayward locations I fouind myself deleting them in the database directly using MyPHPAdmin.
When are these "large bugs" in GeoPress going to be fixed? Or, has this project been abandoned by the developers, who do not respond to email or here?
With all the bugs in GeoPress, combined with the seemingly abandoned development, I was looking around and found a more actively supported plugin for Wordpress, Geo Mashup. Here is the link:
If you click on a map market, you will see multiple instances of the referring page, one for each time an edited page was saved. This is a bug that needs to be fixed.
Any idea how to change the map market in GeoPress? Please refer to http://www.whatsonchiangmai.com to see the issues I am having with the map position markers. Thanks for the help!
when there will be the support for openstreetmap? their map is much better than google maps in many ways and i don't want to be a google slave anymore.
I thought it was possible to do this, but when I try it on mapufacture, I just get a "loading" dialog and get stuck there. I'm really just learning this as I go. So I'm thinking I'm probably giving it the wrong feed for my site. Is there a way or a button somewhere that will show me the actual feed address of my geotagged posts? Is the geoprss feed different from my blogs actual feed?
In the new Google Chrome, using GeoPress in WP 2.6, when editing a post in the plain text editor if you choose a preexisting location from the GeoPress list it disappears as soon as you scroll up/down the page. I am ending up flipping over to FF to set up my map (works fine in FF)
I suspect this is Chrome's fault and not GeoPress - Chrome is lightning fast but in addition to this GeoPress issue I am finding Chrome also frequently misses text characters on the ends of strings when trying to select to cut/copy and paste - i.e. filling in the misc. GeoPress form boxes using other text in a post...
This is not the appropriate venue for a Chrome discussion so I'll end things here and discourage Chrome specific followup.
I've been using Geopress for awhile and have noticed that while the map 'box' and google nav buttons and credit is showing up at post bottom, it is now blank other than that. Here's an example: Community Event Page Detail
In the edit window, the map correctly shows the location where the event is taking place, but when the saved post is viewed, the map area is blank except for the border and navigation, without even streets. The named location has been saved and shows up in the location list fine.
I can't remember which plugins I've added since geopress. The only ones I know of are the 'disable revisions and autosaves' plugin, and the remove revisions plugin which I've now deactivated. I've also upgraded wordpress to the latest version and this site shares it's wordpress database with another wordpress site on the same host.
It would be awesome to list the address of the location in the bubble as well as a link that calls for directions to the address. Is this a possibility?
GeoPress has always worked well for me for the most part - especially with some past tlc at times from AJ Turner (thx again) - There is one ongoing glitch I have using K2 - the map displays with about a 10px blank background at the top and the zoom controls are misaligned - I have searched high and low in my CSS for many hours using Firebug and all over the web for a fix and have in fact just reported this problem to the K2 developers http://code.google.com/p/kaytwo/issue... I cant seem to find the magic bullet that will fix this. Suggestions? Ideas? See my profile http://getsatisfaction.com/people/rrh... for the link to my site. - thx
