   What conditional should I set in order to use this plugin in my footer widget? -- loads on all pages

   So, you're putting the shortcode inside a text widget? I think you'd need to do two things:

   1) Add a line of code to your theme's functions.php file so that shortcodes in widgets will be processed -- http://digwp.com/2010/03/shortcodes-in-widgets/

   2) Add this code to your theme's functions.php file:

   function your_theme_name_bgmp_shortcode_called( $mapShortcodeCalled )
   {
       return true;
   }
   add_filter( 'bgmp_mapShortcodeCalled', 'your_theme_name_bgmp_shortcode_called' );

   I followed the instructions above and pasted the following into wp-includes/functions.php exactly like this:

   add_filter('widget_text', 'do_shortcode');
   function your_theme_name_bgmp_shortcode_called( $mapShortcodeCalled )
   {
       return true;
   }
   add_filter( 'bgmp_mapShortcodeCalled', 'your_theme_name_bgmp_shortcode_called' );

   It did not allow the text widget containing [bgmp-map] to work.

   Am I taking your instructions too literally? Please be clearer so I can understand.
