New Release
15 reviews of “MapPress”
Great support, even on the weekend!
Thank you so much, Andi
I’ve managed to set this plugin up OK, but it took several days of emailing the author about different parts, namely thr Google Maps API Key and the actual map itself as it was positioned over the Atlantic Ocean every time it opened. I don’t live in the middle of an Ocean.
Eventually I found that the person who places the ad needs to be precise when giving their address so the map knows where you live.
Now it works every time you look at it. Not a bad plugin over all.
I installed MapPress a few days ago, smooth installation and it worked instantly. For some reason I couldn’t get other free map plugins to work on my site. I’m somewhat of a beginner and had some trouble figuring out how to add MapPress icons and setting up map sizing but I eventually figured it out. My recommendation is for better documentation for non-experts to set up and customize. Having said that, it is working good for me and I’m happy with it.
Hi odddic,
The problem is multiple Google Map API call on single page multiple time, none of google map will work for this page. To solve the problem remove those API url from other code and place in a single file.
Thanks
Initially I had some issues with this map working with my site, but the developer was responsive and eventually worked out the issue (some conflict with my site) and updated a new version to work for me.
Thank you very much. It now works great and I love this plugin. A wonderful feature on my site!
This plugin is absolutely awful, It doesn’t work out of the box, hard to find where to set the location when creating and editing ads, impossible to display the map for the single ad.
About the coding is horrible, Impossible to read and follow the logic, POOR coding standards, and everything fitted in two files, hard to read and hard to customize. And lack of filters!! How is this possible in a Plugin made for a theme which relies on hooks for everything??
PLEASE DON’T BUY
Absolutely unfinished and raw option. I even refused to return the money, when I saw that this option is useless and complicated to install. It is a pity the lost time and money.
J’avais des problèmes avec autres plugins.Il a fonctionner de suite.
Avec une catégorie “évènementiel”,il rend bien service pour les intinéraires
I had problems with other plugins.Il has run away.
With ” events ” category, it makes good service for intineraries
This plugin brought a great added value to my site for a little financial investment. Timewise, it took me only about 10 minutes to get it installed and functional. A potential enhancement could be to adapt the list of returned objects in the search when changing the zoom area on the map. Great plugin!
The plugin work’s fine, but in same pages we don’t need the map as ADD ADS. How can i desatived the map in some pages like:
–ADD AD
–BLOG
–User Dashbord
Thanks
I can see why some of the beginners would have trouble setting mappress up. the readme.txt lacks some details for a smoother install. But those with some html experience will be fine. Aside from that seems to do the job well. I’ll have to follow up in a few weeks once i get some feedback from the clients on my site.
the plugin work fine!
I was unable to configure it, I find the lack of more tutorials with step by step information for beginners like me. They enter the code, but I see enough details to set it up and add the parts of code needed to work, I think I should do it more specific for people like me with almost no experience. If I can help I would appreciate.
thanks
other then making the site slow..is not so easy to install..you have to go to the css files to make it work..i wish i never wasted my money on this thing.
Map markers persist even after ads have expired. So if you leave expired ads on your site (for SEO purposes), your map will soon be over-crowded with out of date map markers.
Long ad titles do not auto line-break and so can create very wide info-balloons.
A search function would be nice.
There is already a WordPress plugin called MapPress (which I have also bought), so it would have been better to have given it a unique name.
I have purchased this plugin, and work perfect.
But, can I show only Featured Ad (sticky) in the map?
Thanks,
odddic

HI to add map for home page you should user the php code ::
–> Add Below code in header.php of theme root to show map on home page
You can set width & height as per your wish.
————————————————————————-
if(is_home() || is_front_page())
{
$arg = array(‘w’=>’100%’,’h’=>’400px’,); //w=width & h=height
do_action(‘wpw_mappress_gmap_code’,$arg);
}
————————————————————————-
The shourtcode should work for all page content automatically. Not sure about your problem. I will check and correct if any such problem.
Thanks

Hi FR_mauricio,
If you can see the demo with featured slider is working ok.
It seems like it is child theme problem and if you want to solve the problem, you should provide me wp-admin access so I can check it from wp-admin.
Thanks

HI maria,
I have visited your site and not able to see map on your site.

Make sure you have check the document of map plugin. You can either set theme map OR Plugin map.
Also please mention your problem in the email so It easy for me to find out with lot of emails.

And sorry for the delay that you faced.
