Question about functionality

Hello Jakub,
You can do all of the above using GEO my WP and its add-ons.

Create a very large number of markers, divided into several categories

– You can do that. You can assign geolocation to any of your posts type. Means that each post can have a location assign to it which then you will be able to display in a map and search results.

The main map (large size) on the home page displays all or selected categories, user can decide which categories will show

– Using GEO my WP core plugin you can display map showing all posts based on post types. You can choose which post types to display on the map but you cannot choose which categories. To filter categories you will need to either use some hooks provided by teh plugin or you could use the premium add-on Global Maps which provides many extra features. YOu can see a demo of a global map here.

On a subpage that describes the object (marker) I can show closeup map (small size)

– Yes, you can display the location information of a post in a single post page using a shortcode or a widget.

Below I can show nearby places (eg. 50 km from the marker, which is set to closeup), with the specified distance

– This feature is available via the Nearby Posts add-on.

The main map search option is of course the name and zip code / city, at a specified distance by the user

– Yes, you can create advanced, proximity search forms using GEO my WP’s form builder. Search forms can have address field, radius values, units, taxonomies and more.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

@eyal Fitoussi thank you for your answer

everywhere you write “post”. I dont want use posts-pages, but site-pages. All the same will work with WP site-pages or I have to use posts and eg. hide date, author, etc.. for not look like post?

I see demo, its looking good. After positive first testing I can buy extra add-ons, so confirm I will need:
1. Global Maps for showing whole categories of places
2. Nearby Posts
?

About nearby posts – its nearby post of currently showed post (eg. visitor is reading about location A, and widget is showing places near A = B,C,D…, then visitor is choosing B, and there widget is showing places near B..) OR place where visitor is geolocated using internet browser geolocation?

You are welcome Jakub.
I am not sure what you mean by “site-pages”.

hide date, author, etc.. for not look like post?

Do you mean hide it in the back-end or in the front-end.

With GEO my WP posts ( which can be page, post or post type ) serve as locations. Each post that you assign geolocation to will show on the map and in search results.

1) Yes, you can create maps showing certain categories with Global Maps add-on. However, if you know how to use WordPress hooks you can accomplish that with GEO my WP alone.

2) The current version of the Nearby Posts shows locations near the Visitor’s current location. However, with the next version of the plugin which Is already in beta you can show posts near the visitor’s location, you can also show posts near the post that is being displayed, you can show posts near a certain post that you choose based on post ID and you can show posts near latitude and longitude that you choose.
I am planing to officially release the new version within a week or so.

@eyal Fitoussi your plugin is absolutelly awesome ??

After instal everything is very clear for me. After some (3h..) initial tests Im very happy ?? Im sure we will stay with you!

I can I use hacks, but other editors – volunteers in our organization – better not. I will buy paid adds. I write to you about it yet.

Is possible to show website as hyperlink or only as a text?

Now markers on map are typical and with number. How can I change it for posts? Using some add too?

Hi Jakub,
Thank you for the kind words. I am glad that you got it working and that you like it.

Is possible to show website as hyperlink or only as a text?

– Do you mean in the search results? if so it suppose to show it as a link.

Now markers on map are typical and with number. How can I change it for posts? Using some add too?

– You can either change the icons using hooks provided by GEO my WP. If you know how to use hooks and some PHP you should be able to do that. Otherwise, you can use the Premium Settings add-on . Using the add-on you can show map icons per post, per category, per post type or the post’s feature image as map icon.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

Thank you for answer.

Please tell me if its possible to block mouse scroll zooming on chosen mian maps? I used [gmw map=”2″ name=”mapa_2″ scrollwheel=”0″] but its not working…

I see here you block mouse scroll https://geomywp.com/ ..

At the moment it is only possible using the Premium Settings or Global Maps add-ons. However, in the next update of GEO my WP it will be possible via hooks.

Untill then you will need to modify the js file.

@eyal understand. Thank you a lot for your support. I can use your hooks, but I dont want to, because of people who will administrate content.. It have to be very convenient and easy.
I sent you an email via form ??

Hooks are the easiest and most convenient that I know of when it comes to modifying content of a plugin or theme.
It usually takes to place a custom function in the functions.php file of your theme.

There is still a one reason why I do not want to use your tricks and modify core files of plugin and theme. Why I prefere payed add ons..

When doing automatic or manual update plugins and wordpress, I do not want to remember what files I changed and add changes again. I have too much of it.

And when editor-in-chief will take care a website and I ask him to do update when he gets automatic notification, it will be easy for him once click, and do not modify any files and (for sure) spoil somethin. ??
