All maps have been totally rewritten for best performances and can be now open in full screen by clicking on the top-left corner icon.
Geo Theme harness the power of Google Maps V3 API to provide exceptional Geolocation experiences.
Marker information pulled through ajax calls, grants impressive page loading time even with thousands of places to display.
The home page map widget offers an ajax search form to play with!
Admins now have the option to disable streetview and mousewheel scroll zoom in home page map.
If you need to reduce map interactivity to improve site browsing capabilities now you are in total control!

Hi there!
but hope you know what i have on my mind.
Is there any solution to assign a place or event to more than one category groups?
- I mean, separate categories groups, for example restaurant with jazz music (from kind of music cattegory group), and italian food (from kind of food cattegory group)?
Surely it doesn’t looks clear
thanx
Uoli
You can assign places to all categories if you wish…
Thanks,
Paolo
Can we make changes to the google maps API, lets say to use different markers etc??
Yes you can…
Hi there,
Is there a way to have the map items/listings that show up for an area automatically display in a teaser listing format below the map and linked to their main page listing?
Similar to when you do a search on Google maps, to the left is a results list of the items that are marked on the map.
Thanks and let me know.
To clarify, this would be for a home page or main page format…in a horizontal format with the larger map at the top and the listings below it.
I notice you have a category or subpage format with a map in the right sidebar and the listings to the left.
Thanks!
Hi,
You would have to hack the theme to use a category page as home page.
Thanks,
Paolo
Hello, so glad to have found your theme.
I believe that your theme will work well as the directory I need for a project that inspires an atmosphere of “open appreciation,” and the acts and offers that come with it, in local communities across the United States.
The only concern that I have is the limit to access the Google Maps API, before there is a charge. If I am successful in this project, I have no doubt that I will, fairly quickly, exceed what I understand is 25 thousand calls a day. That is, if I understand what this means, correctly.
This is not a non-profit project but its purpose is to benefit non-profits. As such, it is not a high profit project. It is how I plan to continue to eat.
So, this is a serious matter that I must be prepared to address.
I read a response to this same concern, somewhere on your website, where you indicated that you could quote what it would take to use Open Street Map, I think, instead. Is this still possible, to get a quote, and if not, is it a workable situation if I were to hire someone else to do this with your theme?
Also, in the long run, if I have tens of thousands of listings and millions of users, and it works for me to create different directories for every state or a region of states, do separate directories make better sense for usability, speed, or anything else?
I know that breaking down the directory in this way goes against the great capabilities that you’ve built in, but I am concerned about performance and maintaining a large, single database.
Thank you. And best wishes on continued success for this excellent product.
Hi Barbara,
GeoTheme is 100% open source so any experienced developer could do what you requested. We are currently not available for customizations though.
Using wordpress for very big databases and especially for high traffic sites is possibile, but it requires powerful and scalable clustered servers. With the right architecture you can do anything.
Is it possible to use my own icons?
yes it is
Theme can be used in Cambodia? Some business address are not listed in Google yet.
GeoTheme uses lat and long coordinates and google maps. Business address are not scraped from google, but are all to be added on your site database, doesn’t matter if they are listed on google or not.
Is it possible to have numbered pins in the map matching numbered items listed in the table?
Not without modifying the code provided. Currently it isn’t an option, sorry
