Hello,

I'm trying to make a wordpress plugins widget to display aprs.fi on
the website of our association.

But the width of the columns Widget is only 250, and the minimum
limits of the embedded api is 280 :s

Is anyone using a smaller witdh of 280 or having a plugins that works
with wordpress?

Thanks a lot

Have a nice day

Nice!

The limit of 280 came from the width of the user interface elements shown
on the map. Those have changed lately since I've improved support for
mobile devices (with smaller screens), so I guess I can make the minimum
width smaller too. Stay tuned...

Hi,

Last time I used APRS.fi in Wordpress I just HTML embedded it using the
details here: http://aprs.fi/page/embed this probably isn't what you are
after though...

My example is here http://dx.camb-hams.com/updates-from-the-isle/page/5/

This may help others...

Thanks for this too, but the goal of my code is to have a widget in WP not a post, or a specific page.
If you want to see what i'm talking about just take a look at : www.shtsf.com
 
When my code will be ok for my website, I can share the plugin with anyone ;)
 
Have a nice day

The enforced minimum size is now 200x100 pixels. I'm not saying it would
work in an useful way, but 250 should be fine.

I really should do a small info box as an alternative to the huge info
balloon.
