Good day.
I partially upload posts with the Worpress app. I can set geodata (places) in the app. These values ​​will then appear in the uploaded post in the geo_latitude and geo_longitude fields. I would like the values ​​of these fields to be automatically taken from the Plugin Toolset Maps inserted in the post and displayed as a marker on the map. What do I have to do?

Thank you so much!

Hello,

It is possible to setup the map marker with custom fields.

For example:

[wpv-map-marker map_id='map-0' marker_id='marker-[wpv-post-id]' lat='[wpv-post-field name="geo_latitude"]' lon='[wpv-post-field name="geo_latitude"]'][/wpv-map-marker]

See our document:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/maps-shortcodes/#wpv-map-marker
lat and lon. Optional, both default to empty. Another optional source of the marker location, allows to display a marker given its latitude and longitude coordinates. Both values need to be passed.

Output a custom field for the current post.

You can follow our document to setup the Map + Marker shortcodes:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/display-on-google-maps/

For example, you can create a content template for single post, and insert the map and marker shortcode into content template.

Hello, it works. I have another question. What do I have to do to prevent a map from being displayed if there are no values ​​in the geo_latitude and geo_longitude fields?

greetings

You can use [wpv-conditional] shortcode to check if geo_latitude and geo_longitude fields are not empty, then display the marker shortcode, see our document:
