   does anyone has any code to add a map to "tags pages" or "category page" ?

   i'd like to display a map with all the places with info of the posts with that tag or category

   any ideas?

   thank you all

   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).
