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:

Anyone here tried Geo Mashup?

Any comments?

Hello Again,

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?

Thanks.

There is a significant bug in the GeoPress map function. Take a look at this link, generated by the GeoPress map function:

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.

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 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?

How do you override the default map zoom and/or default map type for a specific map?

The new WordPress 2.6 saved revisions function is messing up my GeoPress maps by linking to every saved revision. IS there a fix to this problem?

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.

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

How can I place the GeoPress location form into the front end of the Prologue theme below the post form? Is there a function to call or how do I do it?

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?

If not: Please make that! :)

My map markers are not showing up on blog, but they appear on the admin area.

I'd love to see a StreetView button on GeoPress maps in my WordPress blog!

How do I put a map on a category page that displays the locations of all the entries in the category?

Is it possible to use custom markers or different markers for different posts?
