		<description>@Walt you can style the content of the info window (balloons) using CSS. See &lt;a href=&quot;http://code.google.com/p/wordpress-geo-mashup/wiki/Documentation&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; to get started with info window templates. I use the Geo Mashup Custom plug-in and have a file within /plugins/geo-mashup-custom called map-style.css. You can also make changes to the layout and content of the info window by editing info-window.php, also kept within /plugins/geo-mashup-custom: to remove the time you could simply comment out the the_time(&#039;d.m.y&#039;) PHP block, or use the display: none; CSS property to hide the meta class that contains the date in the info window.

I&#039;ve never used geo_mashup_tabbed_category_index since my own legend is hand-coded. I suggest checking the issues pages &lt;a href=&quot;http://code.google.com/p/wordpress-geo-mashup/issues/list&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; and maybe raising one if that hasn&#039;t been answered already.</description>

		<description>Thanks for the excellent documentation. Hopefully you can help me with the following: 

1. How can I change the format of the text balloons? (example: I would like to remove the date out of all posts)
2. When I use the geo_mashup_tabbed_category_index the initial view is that I see no markers at all. When I select a certain category the markers for this category are shown normally. How can I set the initial view to show all markers?

Thanks,
Walt</description>

		<description>Hi Mike, I hadn&#039;t noticed this since unfortunately the GE plugin is not yet compatible with 64-bit Safari in OS X 10.6. Just installed the plugin for virtualised Windows however... bizarre! I confirm I&#039;m seeing the same behaviour in that the API message seems to be related to use of the GoogleBar&#8212;although I don&#039;t recall noticing that before. The default pegs seem to be showing OK on my Earth map, however, but on your map Earth view doesn&#039;t seem to behave in the same way. I can&#039;t even begin to guess why not, sorry, since my code is the same as yours above!</description>

		<description>Hi Bruce,

Can you tell me what code I need to add to custom.js to display the custom markers I have on my Hybrid Map on my EARTH map. I use to have it so that I could see the pegs (default geo mashup pegs) on the google earth, but for some reason it&#039;s not working for me.

My map can be found here &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.wilkinsonsworld.com/map&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Wilkinsonsworld Map&lt;/a&gt;

I was wondering if the pegs were not showing because I have custom markers, but even when I turn the custom markers off and just show the default pegs, the pegs still do not show in EARTH. If I click on a category in the legend, the information balloon opens correctly on the EARTH map but with no exact location.

It&#039;s a strange one. Perhaps you can shed some light. The code I am using to show the EARTH map is as follows:

 function customizeGeoMashupMap ( properties, map ) { 
	map.enableScrollWheelZoom();
	map.addMapType(G_SATELLITE_3D_MAP);
//	mashup.map.addControl(new GHierarchicalMapTypeControl());
//       The enable Google Bar screws up the Google Earth. It says that one has to re-register the API.
//	map.enableGoogleBar();
	
 }

Any help would be much appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Mike</description>

		<description>@Iznan, just add the following to the customizeGeoMashupMap function in the file custom.js:

&lt;code&gt;map.enableGoogleBar();&lt;/code&gt;

This will replace the &#039;powered by&#039; logo with GoogleBar for search.</description>

		<description>Hello

thanks for you comments

my geo-mashup-info-window.php is this:

&lt;a href=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
		post_count == 1) : ?&gt;
			

&lt;!--custom field image--&gt;
&lt;img src=&quot;uploads/images/&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;
&lt;!--end custom field image--&gt;

&lt;!--custom field data--&gt;
ID, &#039;location&#039;, $single = true)?&gt;
&lt;!--end custom field data--&gt;
			
	Not Found
	Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn&#039;t here.

I guess everything is okay, but custom field image (&quot;thumb&quot;) don&#039;t display. I use version 1.2.4</description>

		<description>Gardo I&#039;m not sure where you are trying to use that, or what you mean when you say it doesn&#039;t work. The first thing to check is that you are using absolute and not relative URL paths. Geo Mashup sits within an iframe so will not have the same path to image files (for example) as does the site that contains that frame.

If you&#039;re using Geo Mashup 1.2 you should be able to use (X)HTML snippets within info-window.php. For example, I insert a category image with the following, which is a mix of PHP and XHTML. Note the full path to geotag-16px.png:

&lt;pre&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;catimage&quot; style=&quot;float: left; padding-right: 10px;&quot;&gt;
	&lt;?php if (function_exists(&#039;get_cat_icon&#039;)) get_cat_icon(); ?&gt;
	&lt;span class=&quot;geotag-overlay&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;&lt;?php the_permalink() ?&gt;&quot; title=&quot;&lt;?php the_title_attribute(); ?&gt;&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.bioneural.net/wp-content/themes/k2bn/styles/bioneural/geotag-16px.png&quot; alt=&quot;GTI&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/pre&gt;

Alternatively you can insert custom markup into infoWindows you create via custom.js. For example, to create a tabbed infoWindow you might use something like the following:

&lt;pre&gt;
var tabs = []
tabs.push(new GInfoWindowTab(&#039;Info&#039;, &quot;&lt;div class=&#039;locationinfo&#039;&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Heading&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some text.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A link &lt;a href=&#039;http://en.wikipedia.org/&#039; target=&#039;_parent&#039;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;img id=&#039;birdie&#039; src=&#039;http://www.bioneural.net/wp-content/themes/k2bn/styles/bioneural/birdie.png&#039; alt=&#039;Birdie&#039; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&quot;));
tabs.push(new GInfoWindowTab(&#039;Map&#039;, &quot;...&quot;));
map.openInfoWindowTabsHtml(map.getCenter(), tabs);
&lt;/pre&gt;

Note in this second example you need to be particularly careful when nesting &#039; and &quot; pairs since if you get this wrong your code will not work.</description>

&lt;/div&gt;
</pre>

var tabs = []
tabs.push(new GInfoWindowTab('Info', "&lt;div class='locationinfo'&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Heading&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some text.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A link &lt;a href='http://en.wikipedia.org/' target='_parent'&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;img id='birdie' src='http://www.bioneural.net/wp-content/themes/k2bn/styles/bioneural/birdie.png' alt='Birdie' /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;"));
tabs.push(new GInfoWindowTab('Map', "..."));
map.openInfoWindowTabsHtml(map.getCenter(), tabs);
</pre>
<p>Note in this second example you need to be particularly careful when nesting ' and " pairs since if you get this wrong your code will not work.</p>
