Geoposty Help

Overview

Geoposty determines your visitor's location from their ip address.

It lets you insert dynamic content items or shortcodes into pages or posts, and control who sees them based on their location or distance from a location. There are also several sidebar widgets available, and you can have any number or combination of them active on your site at any time.

How to use it

  • Add widgets: Click the Appearance link (to the left). Click widgets. Drag a geoposty widget to your widget area.
  • Add shortcodes: Click the Pages or Posts editor (to the left). Click the globe icon.
  • More help: See tips on the Geoposty blog   Send email to: support@geoposty.com
