In reply to: [WP_Places] wp_place is not working for me.oh…sure
so…you would put in the box below the post something like:
Kennedy Space Center FloridaWhen you save it will include the information about Kennedy Space Center.
You can either display it by using
[wp_places formattedAddress]
or in the settings panel you can turn on the div that displays all the info.You did set your Google Places API Web Service Key correct?

In reply to: [WP_Places] wp_place is not working for me.Correct.
That is exactly what it does…
When you enter the business name in the text box and save that post does the box indicate it was able to find anything?Perhaps you can email me the business name and I’ll try and test it further. Sometimes the search needs more specific information.

Can you paste an example of the shortcode you’re using?
Thanks

In reply to: [WP_Places] Feature RequestHmm…that is interesting.
I consider this plugins roll to be adding ancillary data to a post.
It sounds like what your’e looking for is a plugin that given a CSV input will create posts?I’m interested in this…can you provide me a sample of a few lines of the csv?

In reply to: [WP_Places] Feature RequestOh! I haven’t updated documentation yet…
The shortcodes available are listed in the readme.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [WP_Places] Feature RequestGreat…1.1.4 has some known bugs with the shortcode for Phone Number, Longitude, and Hours of Operation.
I’ve fixed those in 1.1.5 and hope to push that tonight.So, keep your eyes peeled for 1.1.5 as that will give you most of what you need.

In reply to: [WP_Places] Feature RequestHey wasanajones,
Wanted to let you know that I’ve added shortcodes.
Let me know if you give a it a shot…Thanks

In reply to: [WP_Places] Feature RequestYeah…that’s why I wrote it…I knew the info was available but couldn’t figure out how to expose it within WP. (or find a plugin that would for me).
I don’t know if I’ll go so far as pushing reviews back to google as that seems to extend into a scope of user-input as opposed to admin input which is not an area I have interest in for quite a few reasons.
So, my plan going forward is to create a settings page where users can decide whether to auto-include the basic <div> (as the plugin is currently written) and what info to show the user as well as settings area to format the CSS
OR allow the user to turn off the <div> entirely and utilize shortcodes to access the specific attributes they want. [WP_Places address] [WP_Places hours] or something like that…Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [WP_Places] Feature RequestThanks very much for the quick feedback!
You’re correct of course…my field naming on the general tab is sloppy.
Will fix that in 1.0.2….I’m sort of torn on NAP because the idea is that you can put in the name and a bit of info you have about the place just like a google search (since that is in fact what it is).
Google place reviews, shortcode are on the roadmap.
Likely I’ll do the shortcode first because I’m not certain on how to integrate the reviews in a meaningful way other than to give them to the user and let them figure out how to style them.Thanks again for the feedback.
