Let’s assume that you want to display a map on your categories archive page which a marker of all the posts in this category:
1. Open the file category.php of your current template.
2. Look for a proper location where the map should be displayed and insert the follwing php code:
<?php
if (is_category()) {
$category = get_query_var('cat');
if (class_exists('Geotag')) {
Geotag::the_geotag('print_map', array('marker_query' => 'cat='.$category));
}
}
?>
This examples uses the new the_geotag function of Geotag v2.0 which allows you to create maps in your templates. Just tell the function the current category_id and that’s it.
was hard to find the category listing since i got a “special” theme but it is in right place cause I put an Echo and it only appears in my category page 🙂
the map does not show but it must be my “usual” problem…
for tags…. is it tag?
the rest I saw it in wordpress codex 🙂
‘<?php
if (is_tag()) {
$posttag = get_query_var(‘tag’);
if (class_exists(‘Geotag’)) {
Geotag::the_geotag(‘print_map’, array(‘marker_query’ => ‘tag=’.$posttag ));
}
}
?>
‘

Yes, that should work. get_query_var('tag') should return the tag-slug and tag=... should be the right marker_query…
went from disable plugin in and disable plugin and.. got a map 🙂
maps show all 🙂 (with markermanager and all :))) )
category shows category maps (but only last 6.. no all 🙁 )
tag does not show any map…
added a “echo” in the if class_exists to check if it run geotag:: and the echo displayed my message
Hi there.
First of all, thanks for the great plugin.
But i’d like to ask about one more functionality.
Is there a possibility to edit the way, how the pop-out boxes on the map with multiple markers (e.g. on the category page) are displayed?
I mean that pop-out box that is shown when you click on the marker — it displays the title and the date of post. Can I change that to, e.g., the title and the post thumbnail?
I assume that i should edit the geotag.php file, but i don’t know exactly where and if it’s good thing to do without your permission.

@le soleil:
Of course, you can modify the plugin as you like. Have a look at (approx.) line 2048 and 2065 where $markers[$i]['content'] is defined. The content of this variable will be used as the content of the infowindow for posts (2048) and for photos (2065).
hi all
@bobs 🙂
hi bobs ,
about my issue
“category shows category maps (but only last 6.. no all 🙁 )
tag does not show any map…
added a “echo” in the if class_exists to check if it run geotag:: and the echo displayed my message”
if i may as 1 more thing…
i can i change it to “if it is a post center on that marker although i have a query?”
thank you for your patience
