 * Is there a way to change or customize the default marker? I understand that on
   a per-map basis I can change an individual location marker, but for the auto-
   generated exif-based photo markers, they use the default google red pin marker.
   I’d like to change that.
 * I have the registered version which reports version 1.01
 * Thanks.
    Wes

 * Hi,
 * I’m sorry, I’ve not received the notifications of your questions.
 * If you want change the default pin’s image of markers, there are two possible
   solutions:
 * The first, and easiest method, is replace the marker.png file, located in “/wp-
   content/plugins/codepeople-post-map/images/icons/marker.png”, with the image 
   to use as default pin.
 * The second method, requires modify the plugin’s code:
 * 1. Open the functions.php file, located in “/wp-content/plugins/codepeople-post-
   map/include/functions.php”, with the text editor your choice.
 * 2. Go to the snippet of code:
 * ‘default_icon’ => CPM_PLUGIN_URL.’/images/icons/marker.png’,
 * and replace the marker.png text with the name of the icon file to use by default.
 * Best regards.
