Getting a map with directions link

G’day Marcus, I did look at that first (the release note is what prompted me to look at this). There might be a plugin that this works for, but not mine as mine needs latitude,longitude passed as a string in a shortcode call. The simplest approach for me was the placeholder.

I’d be interested to see if there is a plugin that handles these new parameters though — I reckon there might be, as I know some plugins use data attributes or other HTML markup to define the map centre / marker location, and it might just need a custom location template to trigger them.

cheers,

I figured something like that must have prompted the new placeholders. The plugin link fails, maybe it’s changed its name. Does it do directions?

Sometime, I’m going to have to do a rewrite of my map plugin so that it is more accessible to AJAX themes, and when I do, it will probably handle your new lat/long placeholders. Until then (which probably won’t be this year!) I have that custom placeholders method at least 🙂

cheers,
Ross
