## Description

A collection of widgets for displaying maps, images, and/or videos in your
 website
sidebars.

#### Sidebar Map

Maps are powered by the Google Maps API v3. Locations can be automatically
 geocoded
or latitude and longitude coordinates can be specified for more precise control.
Multiple map locations (pins) are supported.

#### Sidebar Image & Sidebar Video

Images and videos play in a `prettyPhoto` lightbox. External images are
 supported.
Videos can be hosted on either YouTube or Vimeo. Viddler is currently not supported.

#### Notes

This plugin pairs well with the `Simple Page Sidebars` plugin to allow different

images, videos, or maps to be displayed on individual pages.

This plugin uses `prettyPhoto` to display images and videos in a lightbox.

  Which service is used for displaying maps?

This plugin uses the `Google Maps API v3` to display maps and geocode addresses.

  Can I change the marker image for maps?

Yes you can! You can specify the icon image to use for each map. Alternatively,

if one is not supplied, the default one will be used.
