Installation of this plugin is fairly easy:

1. Download the plugin.
2. Extract all the files.
3. Upload everything (keeping the directory structure) to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
4. There should be a /wp-content/plugins/googlemapstats directory now with googlemapstats.php in it.
5. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.

Edit the phpsqlajax_dbinfo.php manually and enter your sql database credentials. Open the phpsqlajax_genxml3.php placed on your site directly in your browser to test whether it is working. In case of any problems you could try phpsqlajax_genxml.php or phpsqlajax_genxml2.php. The output should look like: phpsqlajax_genxml3.xml

If you do not have a googlemaps API key yet, get your free GoogleMapKey at the Google Maps Homepage: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/signup.html

Into the main config page fill in all fields. Especially important are: * Enter you googlemaps API key in the main config page. * Enter a valid html link to the phpsqlajax_genxml3.php script that provides xml data for the googlemap. This can be even a link to another site or a static xml only file for testing.

Now create a page on your wordpress blog and insert the shortcode [googleMapStats] in your post.

You should see a "GoogleMap" items in the menu. The sub pages are present not functional yet: * Manage Points * Manage Polylines * Manage categories
