 * 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?

   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?

   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.
