Leaflet Map – WordPress plugin
change map icon
Assistant
To **change the map marker icon** in a **Leaflet Map** using a **WordPress plugin** (e.g., Leaflet Map plugin by Leaflet.js or other similar), follow the method that best matches how you’ve implemented the map. Below are **common approaches** to customize the marker icon.

## ✅ 1. **Using Shortcode with Custom Icon (if plugin supports it)**

Some WordPress Leaflet plugins allow custom icons via shortcode parameters.

Example (if supported):

[leaflet-marker iconUrl="https://example.com/path/to/custom-icon.png" lat=51.505 lng=-0.09]

## ✅ 2. **Injecting Custom JS (e.g., via `wp_footer` or `Custom HTML` block)**

If you're using the Leaflet JS directly or via an advanced plugin that supports JS input, use the following:

<script>
  var customIcon = L.icon({
    iconUrl: 'https://example.com/path/to/custom-icon.png',
    iconSize: [32, 32], // size of the icon
    iconAnchor: [16, 32], // point of the icon which will correspond to marker's location
    popupAnchor: [0, -32] // point from which the popup should open
  });

  L.marker([51.505, -0.09], { icon: customIcon }).addTo(map)
    .bindPopup('Custom Marker!')
    .openPopup();
</script>

Make sure:
– This JS runs after the Leaflet map is initialized.
– `map` refers to your map’s JavaScript variable. Some plugins use a specific map ID.

## ✅ 3. **Child Theme or Plugin Customization**

If you're creating a theme/plugin or customizing the plugin:

1. **Enqueue your JS:**

function custom_leaflet_icon_script() {
    wp_enqueue_script('leaflet-custom', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/custom-leaflet.js', array('leaflet'), null, true);
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'custom_leaflet_icon_script');

2. **Create `custom-leaflet.js`** with the same JS as above.

## 🔍 Optional: Use Retina/Hi-Res Icons

var customIcon = L.icon({
  iconUrl: 'icon.png',
  iconRetinaUrl: 'icon@2x.png',
  iconSize: [32, 32],
  iconAnchor: [16, 32],
  popupAnchor: [0, -32],
  shadowUrl: 'icon-shadow.png',
  shadowSize: [41, 41],
  shadowAnchor: [12, 41]
});

## 🛠 Where to Place the Script?

– In Elementor or Gutenberg: Use a Custom HTML block.
– In classic editor: Use a plugin like “Insert Headers and Footers.”
– Or place in your child theme’s footer.

Let me know which plugin you’re using (e.g., "Leaflet Maps Marker", "WP Leaflet Maps", or custom Leaflet integration), and I can tailor the solution exactly to that setup.

Assistant
To connect to a **MySQL server** using a specific **host**, you can use this command:

mysql -h your_host -u root -p

### 🔍 Example:

mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -u root -p

or

mysql -h localhost -u root -p

or (for remote server)

mysql -h 192.168.1.100 -u root -p

> After pressing Enter, it will prompt you to enter the password for `root`.

### ✅ Options:
– `-h` → Hostname or IP address
– `-u` → MySQL username
– `-p` → Prompt for password (don’t type the password directly in the command for security)

Let me know if you're connecting over SSH or need to specify a custom port (e.g., `-P 3307`).

Assistant
To connect to **MySQL with a specific host and port**, use this syntax:

mysql -h your_host -P your_port -u root -p

### 🔍 Example:

mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -P 3307 -u root -p

> It will prompt you to enter the MySQL root password.

### ✅ Breakdown:
– `-h` → Hostname (e.g., `localhost`, `127.0.0.1`, or a remote IP)
– `-P` → Port number (uppercase `P`)
– `-u` → MySQL username
– `-p` → Prompt for password (leave it out for passwordless login or use `-p'your_password'` with caution)

Let me know if you want to do this through **SSH** or within **Docker/DDEV**, I can tailor the command accordingly.
