## Description

Travelmap helps you show your travels on a Google map in any post or page. Add places
you have visited or plan to visit to show them connected on a world map.

Add arrival dates to automatically show your current position and where you have
been so far. Map markers and city names can be linked to a custom url – for example
a blog post, wikipedia entry or Flickr album. Geocoding is done automatically based
on city and country – but if you need to you can override with your own coordinates.

The maps and lists can be customized using shortcode attributes. There is a full
list of available options under the installation tab.

## Installation

 1. Upload `plugin-name.php` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Place shortcodes in the posts or pages where you want to show the map or list:
    
    For the map: [travelmap-map] For the list: [travelmap-list]
 4. Add places you want to show. You will find the plugin options page under settings
    > Travelmap

#### Setting the map size

The map width is 100% of the containing element. If you want another width you simply
style its parent with css. Use the shortcode attribute height to set the height 
of the map. Default is 300px.
 [travelmap-map height=500]

#### Setting the map mode

Choose between roadmap, satellite, hybrid or terrain. Default is roadmap.
 [travelmap-
map mapmode=”hybrid”] [More on Google maps mapmodes](http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/tutorial.html#MapOptions)

#### Showing partial maps/lists

Your can show only some of your places by using shortcode attributes first and/or
last. This is handy if you have done several trips and want to show them in separate
posts or pages.
 [travelmap-map first=5 last=15] This works for the list as well:[
travelmap-list first=5 last=15]

The numbers are the row numbers from the plugin options page. Different maps can
have overlapping numbers. If you add places before the row you have used as first
attribute somewhere you obviously need to change that attribute.

You can also use negative numbers for both start and end to count backwards from
the last entry.
 [travelmap-map first=-15] will show a map with the last 15 entries

You can also use dates to show partial maps. Use first and last with dates instead:
[
travelmap-map first=2010-01-01 last=2010-12-31]

The ‘last’ parameter is optional in both cases.

#### Hiding lines or markers

It is possible to turn of either markers or lines in the map by setting them to 
false in the options:
 [travelmap-map lines=false] [travelmap-map markers=false]

#### Turning off marker numbering

You can remove all numbers from markers:
 [travelmap-map numbers=false]

#### Reversing order

The attribute reverse can be used to reverse the order of the map or the list. Note
that the reversal is the last thing that’s done – so other options are applied before
the order is changed.
 [travelmap-map reverse=true] [travelmap-list reverse=true]

#### Setting custom date format

Arrival dates in the list is shown in the format the blog uses as default. To change
the date format you can use the attribute “dateformat”
 [travelmap-list dateformat
=”F j, Y”] [More on date formats](https://codex.wordpress.org/Formatting_Date_and_Time)
