When changed to the_content() everything works nice again. Thanks for the great plugin! Jonathan Leto jaleto@gmail.com UPDATE:

I have been trying to using it in WP 2.2.3 recently and I am running into some funny problems. On the main page geopress maps look fine, but when you access the posts through the category links, the geopress code is not being parsed by the plugin and is being sent out in plaintext. Example: There are two geopress posts at the bottom of http://leto.net/blog/ with "travel" as a category. They look fine. If you go to http://leto.net/blog/category/travel/ instead, you get something like addEvent(window,”load”, function() { geopress_makemap(172,”",49.276534,-123.099993,”google”,Mapstraction.HYBRID, { pan: true, zoom: ’small’, overview: false, scale: 0, map_type: true },12) }); instead of the map. If any one else is running into this problem with WP 2.2.x, please let me know. Jonathan Leto jaleto@gmail.com Hello,

Also I dont want to use the map in individual posts but instead in a small map in the sidebar that will always be visible but will reposition itself according to the blog being read in the index. Is this possible I also want to load and unload kml's according to the current blog. Again is that possible?? Will obviously be able to ask better questions once I'm able to download the plugin.. thanks, Chuck I’m trying to get the geopress 2.0 plugin but the georss site seems to be down for maintenance, is there anywhere else I can download this plugin.

I've just installed this plugin for wordpress 2.04 on an new Blog (see url). But now I recognized a very strange error: GeoPress shows a different location in the input/editor version compared to a false location when saved. Do you get me?

This allows me to geocode my posts so that they show up over a map. If you haven’t seen this in action, then you’re going to have to wait a little longer. Normally, when you visit adetail page on Anna’s home search tool, a bunch of little rain drops show up that represent blog posts about that location. At the moment, no rain drops are showing up and I suspect this is because of changes to the server during my recent move and Robbie and I never noticed it was broken (until now!). It’s a very cool feature and way under-utilized by me. Note that the author mentions there is a new and improved version of the plugin here. [...] [...] GeoPress.

This work is based on the original GeoPress work. The plugin also allows for setting what encoding of GeoRSS you want to publish (simple, gml, or w3cgeo). It’s very simple (uses existing custom fields to define x/y tags, and existing WordPress hooks to extend to GeoRSS). The main blog post page also now adds a neat little WMS-based map.

It was a neat toy, but wasn’t as fun or usable. For example, folks could only include static maps vs the cooler, nicer draggable maps. I wanted to add a lot of features but i was unable to do so due to lack of time, needing to focus on my startup.
