## Description

This plugin is a replacement for my old “GPS MAP Widget” plugin with the following
options:

 * In the “media” list view there’s a new column which shows the availability of
   GEO data
 * When GEOdata isn’t found yet, it checks the imagefile for the EXIF geodata and
   stores it in the metadata
 * The old metadata used by GPS MAP Widget is recognized and translated in the current
   system.
 * In the POST/PAGES overview a new column is presented with the featured image.
   Geodata is presented with an overlay icon.
 * The media/post/page edit screen shows the location map in a metabox when a featured
   images with geodata is available.
 * A widget “geo2wp map” is available.
 * Two shortcodes are available: EXIF_locationmap and EXIF_location. See below for
   the usage, which is exactly the same (oh well, minus the api key)as under GPS
   MAP Widget.
 * GeoRSS can be added to the feed (default: yes)
 * The widget is only show when there’s something to show. This also goes for the
   shortcode, when there’s no data to show, nothing is shown.
 * geo2wp handles the geodata as described in https://codex.wordpress.org/Geodata
   and as such should be compatible with other systems using these metadataa fields.
 * Every item in the medialist now has an option to reload the exif geo info.
 * In the media screen you can also bulk reload exif geo info
 * On the media edit screen the message in the widget, when no map can be shown,
   is clickable an tries to reload the exif geo info.

#### EXIF_locationmap:

 * width: width of the map image in px. default 300px
 * height: height of the mapimage in px. default 200px;
 * zoom: googlemaps zoomlevel. Default 11
 * Errors: Show error messages when no exif is available or when there’s no featured
   image. Default is false for the shortcode

Example:
 [EXIF_locationmap width=750 height=300 zoom=11 errors=false]

#### EXIF_location:

 * part: ‘latitude’, ‘longitude’ or ‘both’
 * form: ‘dec’ or ‘dms’ (decimal or Degree minute seconds. Decimal is default);

example:
 [EXIF_location part=both] will return 52.22935055,6.8737411

    ```
    [EXIF_location part=both form=dms]
    will return  52°21'13"N , 6°26'7"N
    ```

## Changelog

#### 1.0

First release

#### 1.1

Add 3 ways to reload the geo info from exif:

 * the media item row menu
 * the media screen bulk option
 * the widget on the media edit screen when no map is shown.

#### 1.2

Left some code commented out, thus the bulk option wasn’t there..

#### 1.3

 * Removed the “enable shortcodes in widgets”. It moved to the phototools plugin
   on which the other plugins are going to depend.
 * added rel=””noopenener noreferrer” to target=_blank external links
 * Rather stupid mistake which resulted in api calls without api key.. Sorry!

#### 1.4

Fixed some compatability issues.
