Hi,

Answering to your questions:

Q: For each post is generated google map with points of post and routes as selected in the setting of the plugin in the format <iframe src=”https://www.google.com…&#8230;.></iframe> as it does when google generates the code for insert map on the site. This code is inserted in a custom field with the name that specify in the plugin settings (as set in the settings the width and height of the map, for example height 300, width 100%).

A: In reality the solution is simpler. Inserts the piece of code below in the template used by your active theme to display the posts:

<?php echo do_shortcode('[codepeople-post-map width="100%" height="300"]'); ?>

Q: For all categories, automatically generated maps in the format <iframe src=”https://www.google.com…&#8230;.></iframe> and inserts in user-inserted custom field with the name that you specify in the plugin settings (in the general case, is another name in another table!) and set the configuration parameters of the width and height of the map, on the example height 300, width 100%) but this field belongs to the table name that is also specified in the settings pagina. In my case this table is generated by the plugin “Category Meta plugin” and called “wp-termsmeta” (this table specifies each category (id) meta field with the name specified by the user)

A: Similar to the previous answer, in the template file used by your active theme to display the archive pages (the pages of categories are archive pages), you should insert a map’s shortcode, but this time, using the attributes to select the category whose points will be loaded in the map.

Pay attention, some plugins call to their own taxonomies as “category” but its real name (the name managed by WordPress) is different, in this case you should use in the shortcode the attribute: “taxonomy”. For example, if the new taxonomy is called my_custom_taxonomy, and you want to display in the map the points defined in the posts with the taxonomy: “my_custom_taxonomy” assigned, and with the value: “my_value”, the shortcode would be:

[codepeople-post-map taxonomy="my_custom_taxonomy" my_custom_taxonomy="my_value"]

Best regards.

Hi,

I’m sorry, but from the public website is not possible to know the structure of the shortcode, however, if you want to use a structure of shortcode for single pages, and another different for the archive pages from the same template file, you simply should use a conditional statement to know the type of page where it is used:

if(is_singular())
{
echo do_shortcode( .... );
}
else
{
echo do_shortcode( .... );
}

The piece of code, allows insert a different shortcode (you should replace the …. symbols by the correct structure of the shortcodes) for singular pages or for pages with multiple entries. The is_singular function returns true for posts, pages, or attachments, so, if you want to display the map only in posts, use is_single(), for pages: is_page(), for attachments: is_attachment()

Best regards.

Hi,

An iFrame tag load another webpage into the DOM of the main page, each of them in their own context, so, if you want load the map through an iFrame, you should insert a the map in a webpage without other tags, only the map’s shortcode, generating your own template files in the theme active in your website, and then, to load it through the iFrame the pages using the new templates, but this behavior is not part of the plugin.

Best regards.

Hi,

The “get_terms_meta” function is not part of WordPress kernel, so, I don’t know exactly the value of the $althimg variable, furthermore the logical operator “and” in PHP is represented by a double ampersand symbol “&&”. However, if you are using a custom taxonomy, for example, xyz, and you want to display in the map all points created in the pages or posts associated the taxonomy: xyz, where term’s slug is for example: abc, the shortcode would be:

echo do_shortcode('[codepeople-post-map taxonomy="xyz" xyz="abc" width="100%" height="300"]');

So, if you are referring to the “get_term_meta” function, and the $althimg variable contains the term, the shortcode would be:

echo do_shortcode('[codepeople-post-map taxonomy="my_map" my_map="'.$althimg.'" width="100%" height="300"]');

and that’s all.

I’m sorry, but you’re needing a custom coding service, and not simply a support.

Best regards.

Hi,

As I said in a previous entry, an iFrame loads another page in its own context:

<iframe src="..."></iframe>

In the previous tag you should replace the “…” symbols by the URL you want load into the iFrame.

You should not insert other tags directly in to the iFrame.

Best regards.

Hi,

In our plugin the maps are not custom post types by itself, so, you don’t have an URL associated to a map. You should insert a map in a post/page, and use its URL in the iFrame.

That is the reason I don’t understand the reason why you want to use iframes, instead to insert the shortcodes directly in the webpage.

Best regards.

Hi,

As I said previously you can get the same behavior simply inserting the shortcode directly in the header template.

Best regards.
