Hi everyone,
Here is the code to display a Google map into a post :
| Code : |
{ mosmap width='500'|height='400'|lat='25.354826'|
lon='51.183884'|zoom='3'|zoomType='Large'|zoomNew='0'|
mapType='Satellite'|showMaptype='1'|overview='0'|
text='QATAR'|tooltip='QATAR'|marker='1'|align='center'}
|
To display the above code I was obliged to add a space after the first { and cut the line with returns. Don't forget to remove the space to obtain this > {mosmap.....etc, and returns. The code must be on one line to be functional.
You can change any of the parameters:
width, height to whatever you want although if its too small, you won't see very much.
You must put the units behind the number like 100% or 400px. In fact I recommand to let the default values.
lon and lat for the coordinates and/or address to search for the coordinates (use standard of your country)
zoom can be anything as specified in the Google Maps API.
zoomType, can be Small or Large, this controls the type of zoom function displayed or None so there is no zoomcontrol.
zoomNew, can be 1 for continues zoom and doubleclick and zoom or 0 for click to center (default 0)
zoomWheel, can be 1 for mousewheel zoom and 0 for no mousewheel zoom (default 0)
mapType can be Normal (default), Satellite, Hybrid, Terrain or Earth.
showMaptype is 0 for no Maptype controls and 1 shows Maptype controls (default 1)
Overview is 0 for no overview window in bottom right corner and 1 shows the overview and 2 for overview enabled but close initially (default 0)
text is for the marker, that will show on the map with a balloon. If you don't want to see the text, just set text=" and it will not display, the text is the data displayed above the location pin. Usually it would be used to display an address or hyperlink. A hyperlink is possible use the format: <a href=linkAddress target=linkTarget title=linkTitle>linkName</a>. Don't use (double) quotes!
marker is for opening the infowindow (1 default) or close the infowindow (0) initially.
dir for adding get directions form for a route at maps.google.com to the coordinates.
tooltip is for the marker to have a tooltip when the mouse is on the marker (don't use HTML)
icon is the url to a icon for the marker so it can be different then default of Google
address is for a address to search for the coordinates
gotoaddr is for a searchfield and button so the user can search a address on the map (default 0)
kml is for a url to a kmlfile to load as a overlay on the map for multiple markers or a route
traffic is for showing traffic on the map (Only USA currently)
align is for placement of the map in the content (left, right, center or none)
