Alexander-47u hi all

#
GWG [jgmac1106]: I gave you a line yesterday
#
[jgmac1106] what do you mean?
#
[jgmac1106] ohh I see, I like the irony
#
GWG [jgmac1106]: adactio's indy map made me bump up archive maps on my list of things to do
#
GWG Although mine is a bit...simple

#
GWG I'm having trouble finding a query var to disable paging on a WordPress archive
#
[chrisbergr] Does this the job? $query = new WP_Query( array( 'nopaging' => true ) );
#
GWG [chrisbergr]: Not on an existing query
#
GWG nopaging is not a public query variable
#
GWG So you can't do ?nopaging-1
#
GWG I think I'll have to be creative
#
[chrisbergr] Oh, sorry, confused by the same naming of url part and wp query args.
#
[chrisbergr] Is it possible to modify the template?
#
GWG Not in this case, I'd need everyone to mod their theme
#
GWG [chrisbergr]: https://wpdev.gwg.us/series/berlin-2018/
#
GWG Look at the map at the top
#
GWG That's what I'm generating, but it only shows the locations of the posts on the archive page
#
[chrisbergr] There is a filter navigation_markup_template
#
[chrisbergr] used in the function _navigation_markup
#
[chrisbergr] this function is used https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_the_posts_navigation/
#
GWG Yes, won't work.
#
GWG I'm using the description filter that came in at the same time
#
GWG Either way, going to finish the feature
#
GWG I can see if I can add a query variable that will disable paging
#
[chrisbergr] Oh, but you want the locations from all posts in this archive? then I understood "disable paging" wrong.
#
GWG Yes, sorry
#
GWG How does the map look though? Useful?
#
[chrisbergr] I love the idea of what you want to do 🙂 The map is a bit dark in my opinion.
#
GWG The style is a setting
#
[chrisbergr] With this static map image from mapbox you're able to define the dimensions of the image, right? Maybe you choose something 16:9 and do width:100% with auto height?

#
GWG Map height and width is also a setting in the app.
#
GWG Although it is global.
#
GWG Not sure if I want to have a different width/height for archive views
#
[chrisbergr] https://wpdev.gwg.us/2018/11/06/2216/ here I would also prefer it 16:9 / width: 100%
#

#
GWG Static maps require an absolute height and width.
#
GWG I suppose I could figure out some sort of Auto calc setting
#
GWG I imported these posts from my live site
#
[chrisbergr] 840px * 473px
#
GWG [chrisbergr]: Is that for my theme or all themes?
#
GWG Again, have to think about everyone
#
[chrisbergr] This would perfectly fit your case with the twentysomething theme. And also a good default. And you said that this can be defined via settings
#
[chrisbergr] oh wait. Every theme has this content width variable, right?
#
[chrisbergr] if ( ! isset( $content_width ) ) {
#
[chrisbergr] $content_width = 1920;
#
[chrisbergr] }
#
GWG Does it?
#
GWG Will look
#
[chrisbergr] can you access this value and use it for the with of the mapbox image? and then just /16*9 for the height
#
GWG That might work as an option
#
GWG First I have to finish the archive feature. But I'll note it
#
GWG https://github.com/dshanske/simple-location/issues/132
#
Loqi [dshanske] #132 Add Auto-Size for Maps
#
[chrisbergr] there is an action parse_query
#
[chrisbergr] Maybe you can do $query->set to increase the limit to an incredible heigh value in this action
#
[chrisbergr] Nah, then you'll also display all posts on one archive page what may not be a good way.
#
[chrisbergr] I guess you should do a custom query for the map.
#
GWG Yes
