Hello, I’ve spent the past several months try to create the look for my personal blog. There are two things I’d like for my blog which I am unable to do myself, or I do not know how to do. First, I would like a Guest Map and second I would like a comment field for “City, State, Country.”
1. Guest Map – Finding a nice guest map that I can afford has proved to be challenging. There are guest maps out there, but they either will not embed into my blog page or they seem spammy looking. I found one Guest Map at WP Google Maps that seems very nice, but it is way too expensive, this is just a personal blog after all.
So here is my question: Are there any WordPress map plugins that have the ability to allow visitors to pin or tag it. I know there are a lot of map plugins out there but I’m not sure if any of them can do that.
2. The second thing I need help with is creating a comment field for “City, State, Country.” I found a plugin called WP Comment Field Manager that is a good work around, but it seems like it should be possible to repurpose the email field (which I believe to be unnecessary) and use it to hold the “City, State, Country” info. I’ve figured out how to change the label for the email field and how to display it, but I have one remaining problem. The comment email field requires an email structure to the info that is enter into it. I need to change the field to a simple text field. Is there any way to change that?
Thanks
