• Hi,

    I’m using the following plugins:

    Get Custom Field Values
    Comprehensive Google Map Plugin

    Both generate shortcodes – one to display a Google map and the other to extract and display the value of a custom field.

    I have a custom field on the page which is a postcode, accessible with this shortcode:

    [custom_field field=”postcode” this_post=”1″ limit=”0″ between=”, ” /]

    I have a map generated with this shortcode:

    [google-map-v3 width=”250″ height=”250″ zoom=”12″ maptype=”ROADMAP” mapalign=”center” latitude=”0″ longitude=”0″ addresscontent=”wc1e9hj” showmarker=”true” animation=”DROP” maptypecontrol=”true” pancontrol=”true” zoomcontrol=”true” scalecontrol=”true” streetviewcontrol=”true” bubbleautopan=”false” markerdirections=”true” showbike=”false” showtraffic=”false” showpanoramio=”false”]

    So I guess you can probably figure out what I want to do by now!… I want the map to be generated using the value of the Postcode custom field.

    This however doesn’t work:

    [google-map-v3 width=”250″ height=”250″ zoom=”12″ maptype=”ROADMAP” mapalign=”center” latitude=”0″ longitude=”0″ addresscontent=”[custom_field field=”postcode” this_post=”1″ limit=”0″ between=”, ” /]” showmarker=”true” animation=”DROP” maptypecontrol=”true” pancontrol=”true” zoomcontrol=”true” scalecontrol=”true” streetviewcontrol=”true” bubbleautopan=”false” markerdirections=”true” showbike=”false” showtraffic=”false” showpanoramio=”false”]

    Any other suggestions?

    Thanks,

    Dave
