If you want to embed a map into your post / page with the OSM plugin you have to use an OSM shortcode osm_map_v3. An OSM shortcode always looks like:
[*osm_map_v3 map_center="Lat,Log" <additional,optional arguments>] *remove the asterisk
I can be generated automatically when you edit your post / page. The shortest OSM shortcode looks like:
[*osm_map_v3 map_center="37.11,-8.654"] *remove the asterisk
and generates this map of Portugal:
Most modifications can be done with the OSM shortcode generator when you edit the post / page, but others can be found here. By adding three additional arguments map_border, theme and zoom you can zoom in and adapt the design:
[*osm_map_v3 map_center="37.11,-8.654" map_border="solid thin black" zoom="14"] *remove the asterisk
Only lat and lon are mendatory all other arguments are optional. Following are arguments with default settings, add these arguments to customize your map with marker, tracks, routes and borders …
BASIC MAP INFO map_center default = "" (lat,lon, mendatory) width default = "450" (for percentage add % otherwise pixel; has to be > 0 ) height default = "300"(for percentage add % otherwise pixel; has to be > 0 ) zoom default = "7" () type default = "AllOsm" (osm, CycleMap, OpenSeaMap, basemap_at, stamen_watercolor, stamen_toner, pioneer) map_border default = "none" (standard css, eg: "thin solid blue") mwz = default = "false" ("true" enable mousewheelzoom)
Samples for basic maps are here.
marker_latlon=”49.38198,5.86785″ marker_name=”wpttemp-yellow.png”]
ICON / MARKER marker_latlon default = "No" (eg: marker_latlon="33.54,85.333) marker_name default = "NoName" (OSM Plugin marker or path to personal marker eg: marker_name="../../../uploads/BikeLogo.png) marker_size default = "no" (eg: marker_height="23,43,4")
Samples for maps with marker are here.
GPX & KML ROUTES TRACKS file_list default = "NoFile" (absolut or relative on the blog domain) file_color_list default = "NoFileListColour" (eg for three files: "red,green,blue")
Samples for maps with GPX files are here.
GEOTAGGED POSTS / PAGES tagged_type default = "post" (filter and show only "post", "page", "any") tagged_filter defautl = "Osm_All" (include one category)
sample: add tagged posts of the blog
