I would like this too. I run a restaurant review website and use a custom script to do this. I want to upgrade to wordpress using the Geopress plugin for the professional look, but I would need this capability to do so.

When I first had this problem and started looking for a solution I did not find a plugin that removed all revisions, so while I disabled revisions, which stopped new ones being created, the already existing ones were not removed.

I believe Johnstonian's solution is better. It is more elegant and has the added benefit of solving another problem I had. GeoPress would map future scheduled posts, so I had to write and schedule them, then edit them once live to add the geodata. If I added the geodata then scheduled them, the post would be mapped immediately but the URL was not live so it created an error.

This solution stops scheduled posts being mapped until they go live, which is brilliant!

I fixed this problem by installing a plugin called 'disable revisions and autosave' and another one called 'remove revisions' that cleaned up all the revision versions from the database. Now the map only shows the final posts.

Thank you both. I have had success generating a KML file as you describe above.

bam! I would have never thought that, of course, I am not a pro either. Thanks for your help in this matter.

ajturner replied on August 14, 2008 15:26 to the question "Why dont map markers show up on blog?" in Mapufacture:

Using FireBug to inspect the markers, you can see that your theme, "Structure" has a CSS that is adding a background to all images inside of a post:

style.css (line 430)
.post img, .post a img {
background:#EEEEEE none repeat scroll 0 0;
border:1px solid #01203C;
padding:3px;
}

You should remove that "background" line to have it not conflict with GoogleMaps.

If I am doing the firebug thing right, I don't see any java errors. Here is the link: http://www.blogsheboygan.com/crime-in...

ajturner replied on August 14, 2008 14:36 to the question "Why dont map markers show up on blog?" in Mapufacture:

sorry to hear that - this is a common problem that is typically caused by another plugin that is causing errors or a stylesheet that is hiding the markers.

Can you send me a link to your blog - or use FireFox and Firebug to see if there are any Javascript errors?

I've tried it and it seems to work! Brilliant. Thanks so much for your help. Revisions are proving to be difficult and have unintended consequences.

I haven't yet upgraded & tested with WP2.6 yet.

Sounds like Johnstonian's solution should work, though will add and test to check before pushing out.

I have the exact same problem. Look forward to a fix! Do you have one yet? – 3stripe, on July 31, 2008 10:20

Would also love to customise markers!

"it's actually in the plugin - though not sure in the latest public release." when it's not in the latest public version, is there a chance to get it somewhere?

ajturner replied on July 18, 2008 17:26 to the question "When there will be support for openstreetmap" in Mapufacture:

I'm not sure what you mean by a non-public version? What do you want to do with it?

You can load arbitrary tile layers, so you could potentially point to your own locally hosted tileset - but you would need to use OpenLayers and not the GoogleMaps version since I believe that would break their terms of service.

fabs replied on July 18, 2008 10:53 to the question "When there will be support for openstreetmap" in Mapufacture:

sounds very good.
is there a chance to get an non-public version of the plugin?

There seems to be some problem in parsing the feed. I'll look at it and see if I can fix the problem.

Thank you nathan.bingham!!! That did it.

Thanks for the fixes - these are all being added into the GeoPress code base and will be pushed out after some testing.
