You can define most parameters from it's options page. == Description == The plug-in will grab your current visitor IP address, store it and generate a Google map displaying all those visits. You can customize which marker you want to use, a text for the marker infowindow and more. You may take a look at http://aichholzer.name to see how it works there. This plug-in includes IP-Geo information files and therefor the plug-in will be larger than the average plug-in you'll find. This download will be about 40Mb in size. This plug-in can't be upgraded using the automatic upgrade options within Wordpress, since the download is too big you will get a time-out error. Please upgrade manually. If you like this plug-in please vote it or at least leave a comment on the plug-in's home page. You can also leave the url from the site where you're using it. (I'd like to see how it fits into different layouts) ;) You could also talk about it on your blog and/or post a trackback link to the plug-in's page.
