That's a bit complicated to install

Maybe. If so, sorry.

Can I other world map images?

Yes. Just place them in 'wp-content/geomap' and they will appear in the drop-down on the options page.

Two good sources of map images are:

• http://www.radcyberzine.com/xglobe/
• http://awka.sourceforge.net/xglobe.html

What is the template tag to use?

Use this:

It will output an tag into your HTML, with proper height and width attributes set, and a class of 'geomap', which you can use to style the image using CSS.

Does it re-render the image every time?

No, it uses a simple caching mechanism so that each combination of longitude, latitude and image settings will produce the image only once.

My cache directory is very big

There is a maximum cache size settings. Set this to something reasonable. Stop playing around with your settings all the time! If you want to clear the cache, just erase all the files in 'wp-content/geomap/cache' and let it regenerate the current images next time the page is accessed.

Note: Cache management is disabled at the moment. You can either uncomment the untested code or clear it out yourself now and then.
