Waxfrogdesign: Looks great! How does it work for you? Have you been able to make it so that your WPUF form has an address field and MapPress shows a map next to it that is updated when the address is changed?
http://s.ww.wp.xz.cn/extend/plugins/mappress-google-maps-for-wordpress/screenshot-2.jpg looks like that would be possible. I’m giving it a try immediately.
Update: Those settings are available only in the Pro version. Any free solutions available?
http://ww.wp.xz.cn/extend/plugins/google-street-view-map-custom-field/ supports this and is free, but requires a Google Maps API key. I left feedback asking if it could be updated to use the new API that doesn’t require a key.
Did anyone get this to work with WPUF and MapPress?
Or did anyone figure out another way to get map functionality with WPUF? I am trying to get markers put on a map based on custom address fields in my form.
Hi WAXFROGDESIGN
Can you please explain how you get Mappress to generate maps with WPUF custom fields? It wont work for me no map is generated
Thanks

Not sure if this helps you, but Gravity Forms is a powerful option to create posts. But it isn’t free. I use a GF post body field and insert merge tags into the content template. My post includes a link that pulls from the user input fields. Looks something like this.
<a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?q={Company address (Street Address):14.1}+{Company address (City):14.3},+{Company address (State / Province):14.4}+{Company address (Zip / Postal Code):14.5}+United+States" target="_blank">Map it!</a>
The same process may work for WPUF. Just find a way to get the address values into the URL and pass it to Google Maps.
