WordPress Plugin basics: Geolocation

After seeing and article, an attack of whin has led me to geotag my posts from my iPhone :)

I’m using the WordPress iPhone app, which you can download from iTunes, and the associated plugin Geolocation, built by Chris Boyd.

It’s not a megatool, it’s very simple:

  • iPhone: adds customs geotags, longatude and latitude to your post.
  • Geolocation: reads the tags, inserts a link, and when you hover over it, you see a map

It’s nice not to have too much to think about. If you want more more power, there is always WP Geo and Geotag which are similar and allow you to create custom maps, with your own markers etc.
