WP Google Latitude

Beskrywing

This plugin is a really simple way to add the Google Latitude “Where Am I” badge code as part of your sidebars. V1.03 fixes a trailing Anchor tag that wasn’t closed properly. In addition, thanks to Dennis Wu (http://denniswu.com/) and Phil Bridges (http://philbridges.com/) for helping to find that SOME users will have a “-” in front of their Latitude id.

Screenshots

  • This is what you should see when editing the configuration of the widget.

  • In Google Latitude, go to your Privacy Settings

  • .. and set your visibility as anything OTHER than “Hide Your Location”

Installation

1) Download this plugin

2) Go to http://www.google.com/latitude/apps/badge

Kwel-vrae

Can I have multiple WP Google Latitude widgets?

At this stage, no. As this is my first widget, I’m crawling before learning to run.
