Hello,
On my website I offer the download link to the gpx file to my readers.
Unfortunately, my browser (firefox) tried to open the gpx-file as xml without styling.I found out, that adding the attribute “download” to the link does the trick and forces the browser to download the file instead of trying to display it. See http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_a_download.asp for details.
So I went to wp-gpx.maps.php in the plugin directory and edited line 731 from
$output.=”“.__(“Download”, “wp-gpx-maps”).”“;
to
$output.=”“.__(“Download”, “wp-gpx-maps”).”“;An other problem is to upload gpx-files to wordpress via media-uploader. I needed to add the following lines to my functions.php to allow uploads of gpx-files:
add_filter(‘upload_mimes’, ‘custom_upload_mimes’);
function custom_upload_mimes ( $existing_mimes=array() ) {
$existing_mimes[‘gpx’] = ‘application/gpx+xml’;
return $existing_mimes;
}Maybe both solutions could be part of the next version of this wonderful plugin? Thanks for your work!
Greetings Konrad :good:Sorry, I try to repair the formatting a bit:
