Ocean Mist 2.0 and MapPress
As part of building this site, I tried to do some google-map embedding.
I tried 2 separate WordPress plugins, MapPress and WP_GMaps2, and I could get neither to work.
After reading the comments on the Ocean Mist website, I found a link to this page which addressed a similar problem with FireStats and this theme.
The solution is fairly simple – it just involved adding
<? php wp_head(); ?>
To header.php
Guess it would apply to any WordPress plugin that tries to add stuff to <head>
I also had to add the following to the stylesheet to get the zoom slider and place markers to show correctly.
#content .mapp-div img {
background-color: transparent;
}
