Maps

With our map shortcode you can embed maps through the Google map API. We have included markers and information boxes. An example usage of this could be that you just opened a new shop and you want to show your readers where it's at.

Syntax:

[map width="500" height="300" zoom="6" type="ROADMAP"]
[marker address="123 John Doe, Florida"]Here is some text[/marker]
[/map]

Options:

height       // height of your map
width        // width of your map
zoom         // a number specifying the zoom level the map starts out in, (1 - 15)
type         // can be set to ROADMAP, SATELLITE, HYBRID, or TERRAIN

address      // type in the address for your marker
description  // this is the text that will be displayed in the info box when the marker is clicked

Example:

[map width="390" height="250" zoom="6" type="SATELLITE"]
[marker address="New York, USA"]testing testing[/marker]
[/map]

[map width="690" height="450" zoom="1" type="HYBRID"]
[marker address="California, USA"]It's California[/marker]
[marker address="New York, USA"]It's New York[/marker]
[marker address="Chicago, Illinois"]It's Chicago[/marker]
[/map]
