Solved Embed Google map in a post

Interesting topic.

I can get the standard map view to show my location Ok but when I try to add the satellite and/or zoom code it takes me to somewhere in the middle Est. If I remove what I added it resumes to the correct default view.

I must be missing the obvious.. I'm running 3.0.5 at present.

This is the Co-ords for my location, -36.8174635,144.2239816

Can you show the exact code I need for zoom/satellite?

You need to put that into a kunena message [*map zoom=20 type=satellite]-36.8174635,144.2239816[/map] but without the *

What you have added exactly ?

Thanks, I was putting additional zoom sat code towards the end of the string.

Works fine now (sans the *).

Is the vertical "Map Data" bar removable?


And is there any code that will set the altitude by default?

Thanks again

You can change the zoom level to modify the altitude

I don't have this vertical bar, maybe your Joomla! template broke the display of maps :

Thanks!

Yes, no doubt the template.. doesn't cause any other visible aberrations so I'll leave well enough alone.
