Single Map

If the post or page has a location, the map displays a Single Map showing only that location.

Global Map

If the post or page has no location, a Global Map of all located posts and pages is displayed.

Contextual Map

You can put a map outside posts and pages by using the template tag <?php echo GeoMashup::map(); ?> to make a Contextual Map that shows the located items listed nearby. (Technically contextual maps include located items in the current global query results – usually that’s the main list of posts, or the page being viewed). The Tag Reference has details for template tags.

Getting the wrong kind of map?

There are situations when Geo Mashup won’t output the kind of map you want. You can specify one of the types with the map_content parameter, like [geo_mashup_map map_content="single"] or <?php echo GeoMashup::map( "map_content=global" ); ?>. See Tag-Reference#query-variables for details.
