 * So I needed to add image maps to images that I uploaded through the WordPress
   editor. The best option looked like :
 * [http://www.maschek.hu/imagemap/imgmap](http://www.maschek.hu/imagemap/imgmap)
 * So I downloaded the version that would be easiest it integrate into the current
   tinymce 3 WordPress editor.
 * plugin_tinymce3_108.zip
 * I then unzipped and uploaded this to the following folder:
 * /wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/imgmap/
 * Then to actually make this work I made the following edits on the post.php file.
 * /wp-admin/includes/post.php
 * 1303
 * $mce_external_plugins = apply_filters(‘mce_external_plugins’, array());
 * to
 * $mce_external_plugins = apply_filters(‘mce_external_plugins’, array(‘imgmap’ 
   => ‘[http://domain.ext/wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/imgmap/editor_plugin.js&#8217](http://domain.ext/wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/imgmap/editor_plugin.js&#8217);));
 * 1382
 * $mce_buttons = apply_filters(‘mce_buttons’, array(‘bold’, ‘italic’, ‘strikethrough’,‘
   |’, ‘bullist’, ‘numlist’, ‘blockquote’, ‘|’, ‘justifyleft’, ‘justifycenter’, ‘
   justifyright’, ‘|’, ‘link’, ‘unlink’, ‘wp_more’, ‘|’, ‘spellchecker’, ‘fullscreen’,‘
   wp_adv’ ));
 * to
 * $mce_buttons = apply_filters(‘mce_buttons’, array(‘bold’, ‘italic’, ‘strikethrough’,‘
   |’, ‘bullist’, ‘numlist’, ‘blockquote’, ‘|’, ‘justifyleft’, ‘justifycenter’, ‘
   justifyright’, ‘|’, ‘link’, ‘unlink’, ‘wp_more’, ‘|’, ‘spellchecker’, ‘fullscreen’,‘
   imgmap’, ‘wp_adv’ ));
 * After saving and uploading it seems to work properly.
 * Noted for others who may need this, as integration of this TinyMCE plug-in into
   WordPress is not documented anywhere. Not as good as a proper WordPress plug-
   in, but I have enough projects already.
