Pulling from 1 category post

Resolved

(@nitayang)

Hello, I was wondering if you could pull multiple post from one category instead of pulling from all the categories that has Google Maps active?

For example, I have two categories, but I only want to display one category on the mashup map. Is there a php code that I can add into my php file?

Below is the php code for the pronamic google map mash that I have. I want to add a code to pull just from one category. I would appreciate it very much if anyone can help me. Thank you.

// THE ICON MARKER
function prefix_pronamic_google_maps_marker_options_icon( $url ) {
	if ( has_category( 'map1' ) ) {
		return 'http://maps.google.com/mapfiles/ms/icons/blue-dot.png';
	}  else {
		return $url;
	}
}

add_filter( 'pronamic_google_maps_marker_options_icon', 'prefix_pronamic_google_maps_marker_options_icon' );

/**
 * Template snippet
 */
if ( function_exists( 'pronamic_google_maps_mashup' ) ) {
	pronamic_google_maps_mashup(
		array(
			'post_type'      => 'post',
			'nopaging'       => true
		), array(
			'width'          => 595,
			'height'         => 500,
			'map_type_id'    => 'roadmap',
			'marker_options' => array(
				'icon' => 'http://maps.google.com/mapfiles/ms/icons/blue-dot.png'
			)
		)
	);
}

?>

Hi, yes I solved it with ‘category_name’ => ‘the slug of the category‘

Question??

if I want to show a map on a category listing page with the markers of all posts that belong to that category, I insert in the category.php file this code,

<?php

if ( function_exists( ‘pronamic_google_maps_mashup’ ) ) {
pronamic_google_maps_mashup(

array(
‘category_name’ => ‘CURRENT CATEGORY SLUG‘
),

array(
‘width’ => 600,
‘height’ => 400,

)
);
}

?>

This gives me the current category slug,

<?php
$category = get_the_category();
echo $category[0]->slug;
?>

but it doesn´t work if I place that code in the CURRENTCATEGORY SLUG field.

Help please!!
Thank you.

You could try to use the global WordPress query.
```
if ( function_exists( 'pronamic_google_maps_mashup' ) ) {
	global $wp_query;

	$mashup_query = array_merge( $wp_query->query, array( 'nopaging' => true ) );

	pronamic_google_maps_mashup(
		$mashup_query,
		array(
			'width' => 600,
			'height' => 400,
		)
	);
}
```
