Once logged in to your WordPress site dashboard, move the mouse hover the “POI Manager” and then select “Locations“.
Once the new page has been loaded, click on “Add new” on the top corner of the page.
Step1: Insert the location data #
In this step we’ll add all the necessary information for the location (e.g. Title, description, Styles, etc). For example we name this location “My Favourite Spot” and we write a description, a short description and we tell to the visitors, why they should visit that spot.
Step 2: Add a custom tab #
In this step we add a custom tab to the location page. In this tab, for example, we’ll provide a PDF flyer.
Click on the button “Add empty tab“.
Enter the necessary information for the tab, as described below. In the tab content you can insert link, format the text and insert an ordered or unordered list.
Step 3: Add an image gallery #
In this step we’ll add an image gallery with the images of the spot. Click on the button “Add/edit gallery“.
Through the media dialog, select all the images by pressing CTRL (on Windows or Linux) or CMD (on MacOS) and selecting all the images we’d like to show for the location with the left click on the mouse. You can upload a new images using the tab “Upload files”. Once you have selected all the desired images, click on “Select” on the righe bottom corner of the Media dialog.
Now, you should see all the selected images for the location.
Step 4: Insert coordinates #
In this step you’ll learn how set up the coordinates for this location. For this example, we setup this location as a single point on the map and we enter only one couple of coordinates (one latitude and one longitude). Select the level 1 to insert this location on the first level of the map.
There are many type of location you can setup:
- Circle Area (with a center and radius);
- Path on the map (with a start point, many middle points and a final point);
- Area on the map (multiple coordinates to design an area on the map).
To save the new location, click on “Publish” button.
