    Hi Ian and WP Community,

    I need a simple mod for this plugin so that a placemark title can be also assigned as placemark address in the field immediately below for that respective placemark/post.

    I am automatically feeding the placemarks as posts with name-address as title and content, but I couldnt figure out a way to make the address field below extract the address from the placemark/post title.

    The posted address can be exactly the placemark/post title (plus eventually a static name such as city or zipcode)

    Which pieces of code do I need to modify/add?

    Thanks,
    Sly

    Check out this sample code. You’ll probably need to modify it a bit, but that’s the basic idea. It hooks into WP’s save_post action after the plugin does it’s normal save routine and sets the address and coordinate fields based on the post title. You can put that in a functionality plugin or your theme’s functions.php.

    Tried that code and it doesn’t work.

    The only think that I get is the placemark thumbnails stacked in the top left corner of the map, but no location pins showing.

    Here’s how my Placemarks list looks like:
