Very Simple Google Maps
Beschrijving
Adding an embedded Google Map is a must for most websites. I have created a simple way to add your map with just a simple shortcode. Despite the name there are some nice features that makes this plugin simple but powerful.
Features Included
- Simple to use with just a shortcode.
- No admin settings to mess with. All features are set within the shortcode.
- Can be styled with CSS
- Optionally link your map marker to your Google business listing directly so your business name is shown.
Gebruik
The basic shortcode to use is [vsgmap address="street address to display"]
See the FAQ for full usage options.

FAQ
- Shortcodes what??
The shortcode you need to use is this:
[vsgmap address="street address to display"] - What are the options for use with the shortcode?
The following options are available:
address=”street address to display” (Enter the street address for the location to be shown. NOT a Google Map URL)
align=”left” (default is left. Valid are left, right, center)
width=”400″ (default is 400. Any pixel dimension is valid)
height=”380″ (default is 380. Any pixel dimension is valid)
info_window=”A” (default is A which displays marker popup. Other option is near and the marker popup will not appear until marker is clicked on)
zoom=”14″ (set the default map zoom level. Valid options are 1 through 16)
companycode=”” (Enter Google string cid from company maps listing URL)
maptype=”” (default is m, m = normal map, k = satellite, h = hybrid, p = terrain)
- How do I find the Google cid code???
Find your company listing on a Google Maps result page and click the link to email the link. It will open an email and the full link will be visible. The cid # is usually easy to see. you only need the part after cid= you do not need the whole thing. You can also try this web page CID Finder: http://ryanbradley.com/tools/google-cid-finder
- How can I put a border around the map?
The plugin wraps the embed within a div so this can be achieved with with css.
Simply add the following to your themes style.css
.vsg-map iframe { border: 1px solid; }
Of course you can change the css any way you like.
