wordpress and geo

[mrowinski]

I am using geoplugin on a simple wordpress blog and I display the visitors CITY and STATE on it. That part is easy and even I figured it out.

 

I also understand how to query any of my posts by TAG name, I tag my posts with the city and state that I visit.

 

What I am trying to do is simple, when a visitor is on my site, pull their city and state and query my posts to display those to him 1st, so that he/she can see a post related to his city when i visited there.

 

Here are a couple lines of code:

the geoplugin code to display the city and state:

//require_once('geoplugin.class.php');

//$geoplugin = new geoPlugin();

//$geoplugin->locate();

//echo "{$geoplugin->city} {$geoplugin->region}"

 

Here is the simple query:

//query_posts('tag=THIS IS WHERE I NEED THE CITY AND STATE');

//while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();

// echo '<li>';

// the_title();

// echo '</li>';

//endwhile;

 

// Reset Query

//wp_reset_query();

 

in the query you will see "THIS IS WHERE I NEED THE CITY AND STATE" that is where I need to plugin the visitors city and state, I also need to place a '-' in place of a space ' ' so I need to use a code like str_replace(' ', '-', or something since the TAG in wordpress can not have spaces and there are cities that have more then 1 word and then the state.

 

Any help? Any ideas?

 

Thanks guys
