Change the Feature sharing settings for a single Feature, and reuse the Feature in other Posts … The Gutenberg Editor Plugin is required for WordPress versions prior to 5.0, see requirements What is a Feature? The term “Feature” is used in the cartographic context. A representation of a real-world object on a map (feature|Definition – Esri Support GIS Dictionary). Within this plugin, a Feature can represent a simple location (Marker), a way/route/track (Polyline) or an Area (Polygon/Rectangle). A couple of properties are stored with the Feature, eg. appereance and popup-content data. How does the Plugin work? A Feature is saved as a post type, and not saved to the Block! The Plugin registered a new custom-post-type ‘geom_feature’. Each geom_feature is used to store a single cartographic Feature, formatted in geoJSON. The cartographic Feature and other data (appearance, popup-content …) are stored as post-meta. The geom_feature is registered without wordpress ui (List table and editing screen) or appearance in admin-navigation or admin-bar. When editing any post with gutenberg, the ‘Geo Masala Map’ block displays a leaflet map and some settings-panels beneath it. All crud actions (create, read, update, delete) for geom_feature(s) are handled within the editor block using the wp rest api and its backbone client. All geom_feature crud actions are saved immediately (Some ui elements have reset/save buttons). default post_status for geom_feature(s) is ‘draft’. The Features-Panel lists geom_features. Features on Map are highlighted. If a Feature gets removed from map, the geom_feature is still saved and available to use. Therefor a Feature created by one post can be used in another post as well (depending on the individual feature settings). All changes made to a geom_feature are saved immediately and will effect all posts where the Feature is displayed. All attributes related to the map (and not to its features) are stored as block attributes. In Development The Plugin is in early development (and needs a sponsor to go on). Some ui will change and more options will be added. Coming soon hopefully: wiki and tutorials Possibility to draw routes on a map. Import for gpx/geoJSON/kml Method to add altitude and slope values for features Elevation profile for line/routes Color line/routes by z value or slope … Known issues: Currently there is a maximum for hundred Features, will be changed in future. Feature Sharing: The popover control controls if the Feature appears in a Feature-Pool. If it is already in use somwhere, it will still be used, but just not displayed in Feature-Panel.
