How do I install and use the plugin?
 |
You can use Wordpress “Plugins” menu to search for and install the latest version of our plugin. Make sure the plugin is activated. |
 |
Under “Settings” you’ll find the new PlanetEye configuration panel. As your site will now be displaying Google Maps, you need to signup for a key and copy it into this panel. If you would like to generate revenue with traffic from your site, contact us so we can assign you a Customer ID |
 |
Once the plugin is configured, start writing your posts as usual (be sure to use the visual editor) and whenever you mention a place around the world, highlight the text and click the orange PlanetEye button to enable the plugin. |
 |
Now that the search window is open, you are going to want to search for the place you are writing about. This is no different than searching the place in Google Maps. Most of the times the name of the place will be sufficient (”Trafalgar Square”), but adding a city may help you find places for which there are other matches (”Trafalgar Square, London”). |
 |
Often times your search queries will return several matches. In order to make sure the right link is created, the plugin will present as many options as necessary with a helpful map to help determine the correct location. Simply select the featured place from the results list. |
 |
Each place that you link with the plugin will lead to a page where our various affiliate partners present their products and offers. Only a curated selection of relevant offers will be shown to the reader, and our ultimate goal is to connect the traveler with the services that will enable the journey described in the article. |
 |
Our commitment is to present all information that may be useful to the reader when planning a trip, including full interactive maps with a wealth of data on what to do, where to stay or eat and other opportunities for planning a great trip. |
 |
We are so committed to helping your readers that we will even do all the planning for them if they want to. Our travel agents have access to an arsenal of travel databases and tools to put together the journey of a lifetime. |
