Interactive Google Maps In Post · **Released**: 02-10-2010

No Google Maps API key, no mod install, no template edits, etc. This is based off YBMF's mod for 4.0, but a bit easier for the end user. Instead of the user having to input the full Google Maps link, just the address, name of business, etc is acceptable.

Admin CP --> Custom BB Codes --> Add New BB Code

Title: Map

BB Code Tag Name: map

Replacement: <div align="center" style="margin: 5px 5px 5px 5px;">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="100%">

<td class="thead" style="text-align:center"><iframe width="100%" height="600" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="http://maps.google.com/maps?q={param}&output=embed"></iframe></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>

Example: [map]201 S. Grant Avenue, Columbus, Ohio[/map]

Description: This will insert a Google map of the location you input

Use {option}: No

Button Image (Optional): whatever 20x20 image you want, attached is the one we use

Remove Tag If Empty: Yes

Disable BB Code Within This BB Code: Yes

Great mod, works perfect on 4.1.4.

Is it possible to add waypoints to a map?

Working great for me also (4.1.5).

Is there a way to set the initial zoom level?

At the end of the URL in the replacement, after embed add the code:

Code:

&z=10

where 10 is the zoom level, appears to be a number between 1 and 20, the higher the number the closer you are zoomed in.

You have to download the icon from this thread, upload it to your /images/whatever directory, and then set the path to the image in the bbcode options for it to show on the editors.

I'm having an issue embedding this map: http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=...b7fc7822&msa=0

not sure why but it won't show the right area or any of the markers when I use the [map] codes... Any suggestions? I'm using 4.0.8.
Here's the thread in question: http://newschoolofphotography.com/ne...christmas.html

thanks.

I see two Google embedded maps in FF. The first has markers. I guess you fixed it? Or maybe a cache issue?

edit: Okay I think I see what you're asking. That really is a fancy looking map at http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=...b7fc7822&msa=0 . I don't see why it shouldn't embed.
