Get RVM to create as many responsive vector maps as you want... stop using area tag to create your linkable maps.

== Description ==

RVM ( Responsive Vector Maps ) allows you to create responsive vector maps for your Wordpress site.

Vector maps have the advantage to not loose quality when reducing or increasing their sizes. Using RVM you will not need to create static images for area map tags.
Based on great work of Kirill Lebedev [jvectormap](http://jvectormap.com/), this plugin uses a combination of css, html and javascript to create as many svg maps as you like for your site.

You can use maps in sidebars as widgets or just in the post content using shortcodes.


= Features = 

* Responsive: maps will adapt their width to any device
* Cross-browser compatibility using ( yes, works even on IE7 - use SVG / RVML )
* High quality image: vector maps never loose quality
* Many default maps available: France ( regions ), Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, Europe, USA, Belgium and whole World ( with clickable countries ).
* Dozens of downloadable maps from [responsivemapsplugin.com](http://www.responsivemapsplugin.com/expand-your-horizons/)
* Chance to install dynamic maps with all kind of svg ( not only geographical maps ! )
* Mouseover tooltip effect
* Subdivisions ( Country, Regions, Provinces, Districts etc...): customise background colours, links and html popup ( tooltip )
* Markers: add your linkable markers on the map using latitude and longitude. Chance to have html popup, dimension ( marker radius ) and min/max radius dimension scale
* Customisable look and feel
* Preview functionality: WYSAWYG while creating/editing your map
* Shortcodes: use generated shortcodes in your posts
* Widget: maps can be used in widget area too 
* Zoom capabilities
* Width: a specific width can be set while creating/editing your map or adding **width** parameter to the shortcode


== Installation ==

1. Download the zip file from this page 
2. Login to your WordPress dashboard 
3. Go to Plugins > Add New, under Install Plugins title click on Upload and use the browse button to search the .zip file you have downloaded at point 1
4. Once activated you have a RVM tab on the left hand side
5. Start creating your favourite maps

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Can I customize map and canvas colours ? =

Yes, these are possible layout customisations:
 
1. Canvas colour
2. Map colour
3. Map border colour
4. Add zoom-in/zoom-out buttons
5. Map width ( can use em, %, px etc.. )
6. Region background colour, links and html labels
7. Markers background colour, border colour, links, dimension, html popup message and min/max radius dimension scale
8. Get rid of map padding

= Can I customize map region links ? =

Yes, it's possible to customise links for each region/area displayed in the map. When creating a new map or editing an existing one, you will have chance to
assign url to each area/region of the map. Default areas/regions have just a tooltip mouseover effect displaying area/region name.
Actually is possible to add a custom html tooltip in a secure way.

= Which WP version is the plugin compatible with ? =

The plugin will work at its best from WP ver 3.6 onwards.

= I created a new map, but I would like to give specific width just for a specific post, is it possible ? =

Yes, you can create a new map which will adapt to your box container automatically and will be responsive, but you can even use 
an additional **width** parameter to the shortcode within a specific post. Your map will have specific width just for that post.

== Upgrade Notice ==
First release on 22/07/2014


== Arbitrary section ==

ATTENTION: bare in mind that using same identical shortcode ( same post ID ) in more then one position on the same page will result into a layout issue:
in other words if you create a new map you should not use it in more then one position ( post/sidebar ) per page. 
That's because the javascript managing map creation fires same ID selector.

Create instead a new one and use it for your purposes.
