Hi there. I was looking to be able to place a google map in my posted thread from a form utilising the form header as an address. For example - "154 Eglinton Road, Mornington", and that would insert a small map as part of the post. (In New Zealand, so may need to append "NZ" on the end of the form header info. Example is: http://www.shackchat.co.nz/listings/...oad-Mornington

for that I'm using map bb code:

<div align="center" style="margin: 5px 5px 5px 5px;">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="100%">
<tr>
<td class="thead" style="text-align:center"><iframe width="600" height="350" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="http://maps.google.com/maps?q={param}&output=embed"></iframe></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>

Hi there - thanks for that.

I have two questions please -

1. Where am I sticking the BB code for this in to the form? (presume its under form output styling?)
2. Re the {param} - where is that getting it from? Should that be replaced with for example {threadtitle} or {qo_85} etc?

Mark

First you need to install this bb code in admincp: AdminCp->Custom BB Codes->BB Code Manager and set for example:

Title: Map
BB Code Tag Name: map
Replacement: - code from previous post
Example: [map]Paris,France[/map]
Description: Insert Google map

then in the form output add something like:
[MAP]{qo_72},{qo_73},{qo_74}[/MAP]

For me the best results I have when I use:
[MAP]number and street, city ,country[/MAP]

You need to go to your URL /misc.php?do=forms

From there, you can access everything. Just make sure you setup the permissions in the Options in the AdminCP.

And yes, it works on 4.2 without issue.

For me the URL is just forms.php

You can easily add it using vBulletin Navigation Manager.

Go to your forum home page and rather than forum.php what appears when you type in forms.php into your browser?
