adding map image to posts loop

  • was just wondering how I can get the map to display for each post in the loop on my project page.

    have tried using wpgeo_post_static_map, both with the post ID passed and without but it returns empty and there’s no example of how to use this function. I’m trying to use the map instead of a featured image so it doesn’t have to be interactive, is the static function the correct function?

    It sounds like your are using it correctly. I have written some brief documentation.

    One thing to not is a static map cannot be created if one of the dimensions is a percentage – they must be numbers. You can override the width/height parameters by passing them as a second argument to the wpgeo_post_static_map function. See the documentation link above.

    Hi Ben,

    Thanks for the updated documentation, however it’s still not working! I’ve checked that the ID is accessible (it is) yet nothing displays using the function as you posted.

    I have assigned it to a variable and then echo the variable in my output where I need it to show the map yet the map part does not come up!

    $map =	get_wpgeo_post_static_map( get_the_ID(), array(
		'width'   => '275',
		'height'  => '200',
		'maptype' => 'G_PHYSICAL_MAP',
		'zoom'    => 10,
	));
	echo '<div class="map">' . get_the_ID(). $map . '</div>';

    maybe you could have a look at my test site and see what is happening: https://dev.ecowebdesign.com.au/tgl/our-projects/

    I have also just noticed that it seems to work on the single page: https://dev.ecowebdesign.com.au/tgl/projects/kyrgyzstan/

    but not on my page template!
