Make WordPress into a GeoCMS. == Description == This plugin lets you save location information with posts, pages, and other WordPress objects. These objects can then be presented on interactive Google maps in many ways. = Examples = There's a community sourced [list of examples in action](http://groups.google.com/group/wordpress-geo-mashup-plugin/web/examples-in-action). People do all kinds of amazing things with Geo Mashup. = Features = Geo Mashup, like WordPress, has a simple interface for basic features, templates for control of output, and APIs for endless customization options. Some popular features are: * Once you have a [Google Maps API key](http://www.google.com/apis/maps/signup.html), you're ready to put maps just about anywhere on your site. * Global maps can present your posts in many ways They can show just one category, for example Context-sensitive template maps show the markers of currently displayed posts Clicking on a post marker shows a customizable summary of the post or page in an info window * Location can be saved for posts, pages, users, and comments * Location can also be embedded in post content for mobile blogging * Reverse geocoding to fill in address information for locations * Support for both standard WordPress shortcodes and template tags to add maps to your site. * GeoRSS automatically added to feeds * Attach KML files to posts and pages * Connect category markers with a colored line * Many more [enhancement requests][enh] implemented and underway.

The beta version includes all the stable version features, and also new features that need further testing. See the current [Beta Documentation](http://code.google.com/p/wordpress-geo-mashup/wiki/BetaDocumentation) for more. = Mashup Ingredients = Geo Mashup combines WordPress, [Google Maps](http://maps.google.com), and [GeoNames](http://geonames.org) to create a GeoCMS that puts you in control of all your content, including geographic data. = The Future = I would like to make WordPress a first-class GeoCMS, and also make working with maps in your blog as easy as working with images. Geo Mashup endures because it supplies me with [customization work](http://www.cyberhobo.net/hire-me/). If you are a developer interested in this kind of work, [contact me](http://groups.google.com/groups/profile?enc_user=uBuY-RQAAACbQmFlLULeJFU8ITpJlc8IOPANdqfI6prRsqjc7uCt1A). More of us can make Geo Mashup better, which will in turn supply us with more work.
