This plugin makes it easy to share your last check-in location without needing to worry about giving away personal info, and you don’t need to be an expert in mapping APIs! The plugin places a Google map in a widget area and lets users enter their preferences over what they show, be it just the map, or the name of the place too, or the comment they left while there. Simple, effective, and sociable. #### Features: * Offers an easy way to share your last check-in location with your blog’s readers. * Built on the Foursquare and Google Maps APIs, so expect blistering fast speeds. * Intuitive interface for editing options, with plenty more power under the hood. * Independent handling across multiple widget instances, using WordPress 2.8’s widget_class coolness. ## Screenshots * [[ * This is how the plugin could look on your blog. * [[ * This is the widget options panel. ## Installation 1. Download the plugin by hitting that big red button to the right. 2. Extract the files and place the entire ‘foursquare-map’ folder into your wp_content/ plugins directory. 3. Go to your ‘Installed Plugins’ panel and activate ‘Foursquare Map’. 4. You are now ready to use the widget. #### Setup: * Go to your ‘Appearance > Widgets’ panel and select the widget area you wish for the plugin to appear in. * Enter the following details: 1. Widget Title 2. _Foursquare Email Address_ * 3. _Foursquare Password_ * 4. Map Size (squares only for now) 5. Map Zoom Level (zero is furthest, 21 is closest) 6. Indicate whether to show the venue name 7. Indicate whether to show your last comment * _no trace of this info is discoverable – you’re in totally safe hands here._ * To make changes to what you see _within_ the map, you might need to play around with the Google API code in bundled with the widget. I’m sure code snippets will start to appear in the comments [right here](http://digitalcortex.net/plugins/foursquare-map) to help you along. ## FAQ Where do I put the widget? You can place the widget wherever you like as long as it is within a pre-defined widget area. I haven’t worked out how to let people place the widget wherever they like. Let me know if you can help on my [contact page](http://digitalcortex.net/contact) though. Can I style the widget in my own way? Kind of. You can change the parts that are created by WordPress by using your stylesheet. css to override your theme’s default widget settings. I’ve added the below style classes for you to do so: * _.four2map_ – the widget class * _.widgettitle_ – the widget’s title (same as all widgets) * _.venue_ – the div above the map containing the venue name * _.label_ – the text within the .venue div * _.map_ – the map itself * _.comment_ – the text below the map To make changes to what you see _within_ the map, you might need to play around with the Google API code in bundled with the widget. I’m sure code snippets will start to appear in the comments right here to help you along. Where can I find more help and support?
