Hi there,

1. It looks like the URL you provided is using the blog layout. Try making a "blog" category and assign that in the theme options for the blog. Let me know if that helps with the map on your category pages.

2. On the post edit screen, there is a custom field where you can provide the URL to the pin image you want to use. Simply upload the pin image and copy/paste the URL into that field.

Let me know if that helps.

Thanks!

Chris

This is another example of a site that is doing something similar to what I'm trying to achieve: http://www.zitymaps.com

Question 2: How can I change the pins to other icons?

I've been trying to setup the menu with a drop down of different campsites in the area. I've tried using pages and categories, but neither have the map behind the posts. I saw a site that did something similar and it worked, and I'm not sure what to do to get there.

The example site is http://www.lakewaparks.com/category/parks/mercer-island/

For each category (or area of the city) there is a map with pins in it showing the locations (posts). I'm trying to do close to the same thing without any luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. :)
