categorization of locations for google maps

    Hello together,

    I’m doing an events page for all locations in my hometown to support the transparancy of all events and locations. Therefor I sperated the locations into clubs (techno, hip hop,…) bars and pubs etc.

    Now I want to create maps where only the locations of the single genre are shown. I already categorize the events of the locations in the same categories. Means I’m able to show a map with only the events from the categories. The challange is that not every location has events. So I could only create a map with locations having events…

    I want to create categories or tags which I can chose for the single locations and then show a map with only this tag. E.g. only techno clubs or only expensive bars or normal pubs and so on.

    I have no idea how to create these tags which I can use in the [location_map] short code. Perfeclty something like [location_map location_tag = “hip hop club”(or pub, bar, techno, house,…)]

    I’d greatly appreciate some input here 🙂

    Many Thanks!

    Cheers
    Valentin

    Unfortunately, categories or tags per location is not yet available or possible out of this box.

    Hi,

    that is not 100% true – there are custom attributes in gerneral settings and I was able to create some which work fine. But I am only able to use this to show the attributes within the location page. I customized the location settings, so the attributes show up once you click on a location.

    #_LATT{dresscode}{Jeans&Sneaker|Hemd&Sneaker|Schnieke} #_LATT{typ}{Club|Bar&Kneipe|ShishaBar} #_LATT{genre}{HipHop|Techno|MixedMusic|LiveMusic}

    Now I want to use this in the locations_map shortcode to show e.g. only the locations with dresscode Jenas&Sneaker. Something like:
    [locations_map #_LATT{dresscode} = Jeans&Sneaker}

    I’m sure this is not the correct syntax. I tried a lot of syntax but nothing works. So if there is a right syntax please let me know, that would solve one of my last problem before I can run my page….

    Cheers

    [location_map location_tag = “hip hop club”(or pub, bar, techno, house,…)]

    You can use location attributes by default and use custom taxonomy on location as well, however, using categories or tags search attributes on location map shortcode is not yet available by default.
