The shortcode parameters are in the documentation. That one isn’t included – no one has asked about turning off thumbnails for a single map before.

Hi,

Try this, I think it’ll work:

thumbs=”false”

[Chris]

I don’t know if understand the problem – is it that you want to see an empty map when there are no matching posts for the query?

It would help you if you could email me with a login to your (test) blog along with an example, so I can see it.

Hi,

Try removing the do_shortcode() call and see what wp_query would fetch by itself instead – it may just be a query issue:

<?php 
  $wpq = new WP_Query("post__in=" . $result . "&post_type=restaurant");
  print_r($wpq);
?>

Hi Clive,

Sorry, but I can’t tell anything from those statistics. There weren’t any major changes between those versions.

If you’d like to put your page back up and provide a URL I’ll take a quick look.

You may want to try using developer tools (such as Firebug) yourself to see what’s being loaded rather than just a summary. MapPress itself uses only 1 javascript file and a CSS file. The Google API fetches various map tiles based on what location(s) are mapped, the map type, etc.

Hi,

I’d like to help, but I didn’t understand. What’s a page builder row?

Are you talking about the widget that’s available for the theme sidebar? Or are you using the shortcode?

[Chris]

Hi Nick,

Yes it’s possible. You’ll need to create one post per location (you can combine the posts into a single map with a mashup). Then you can import the posts or overwrite them with TurboCSV or a similar importer.

You can configure custom fields in MapPress for the title, iconid, and content. For the image I’d suggest just using the post featured image.

Hi,

With the initialopendirections option, you can open the directions and specify the “to” location as a number (0 is the first POI, 1 is the second, etc.):

[mappress initialopendirections="0"]

If you want *both* locations filled in it’s trickier:

1) Modify the directions.php template and enter the default addresses in the input form, then use initialopendirections=”true” to open the directions when the map is displayed. This will still require the user to click the ‘get directions’ button and it’ll always use the same 2 locations.

2) Use javascript:

// Open directions between two addresses:
mapp0.openDirections("first address", "second address");

// Open directions between two pois:
mapp0.openDirections(0, 1);

// Click the 'directions' button to get the route:
jQuery('mapp-dir-get', 'mapp0_directions').click();

Note: each map has a name – “mapp0” is the default for the first map on the page. You can override the name using the “name” option in the shortcode:

Hi,

I’m not sure I understood, but this may help: you can turn off the initial infowindow (the bubble). It’s usually off by default unless you have initialopeninfo=”true” in the shortcode.

If you want to leave the infowindow on, you can still sort the POIs by date. Turn off the MapPress alphabetical sorting with sort=”false”. Then WP should sort by post date (by default), or you can use one of the other sorts here:

Hi,

Usually, AJAX Errors are caused by other plugins or the theme, not by MapPress.

Try deactivating your other plugins and switching to the standard 2012 or 2013 theme. There are some other tips in the FAQ:
http://mappresspro.com/mappress-faq

If that doesn’t help you can send me a login and I’ll trace it for you.

[Chris]

Hi, you can turn off the default sorting with sort=”false” in the shortcode:
[mappress sort="false"]

[Chris]

Hi,

The first example should be using the category slug, so just double check you have a slug “nsw”.

In the second, “category” isn’t valid, you need to use “cat”:
[mashup query="posts_per_Page=-1&cat=7"]

See here for some examples:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query

You can also put a little code in your theme to see what WordPress would output for a query – without using a map:

<?php
  $query = new WP_Query( 'cat=7' );
  print_r($query->posts);
?>

[Chris]

The plugin has its own database tables ‘mappress_maps’ and ‘mappress_posts’. You’ll need to do a database copy (either the whole database or those tables).

If you’ve changed post ID numbers, you’ll also need to update the ‘mappress_posts’ table with the new post IDs.

[Chris]

It would help if you posted the query or queries that don’t work for you so I can see if there’s a formatting error.

[Chris]

Hi,

You can definitely increase memory.

The wp-config settings are here:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Increasing_memory_allocated_to_PHP

The php.ini setting is usually “memory_limit”, for example:
memory_limit = 64M
