[...] Since the announcement of Version 2, I’ve been looking for a replacement for what I’ve been currently using. My initial choice was the Geo-mashup Plugin by cyberhobo, but for some reason settled on YongFook’s Instant Google Map Plugin. Worked as advertised and wasn’t difficult to implement.

I must be a complete boob, but I’m not sure how to use it after I install it. I’ve activated it and registered the API Key. When I try to write a post I see the google map section under my post text box, but I’m not sure how to use it.

Hi, nette idee! Funktioniert die Karte nur im Header? Oder auch in Seiten?
