Plugin (Mambot) for displaying one or more googlemaps within content-items of Joomla. You can set width, heigth, latitude, Longitude, zoomtype, initial zoom level, text displayed in a marker and of course the google api key. It's developed from versions 1.0 that was available on www.mambotastic.com. This version is using api 2.x of Googlemaps and also has a new parameter for choosing maptype.
Usage:
{mosmap width='500'|height='400'|lat='52.052312'|lon='4.447141'|zoom='3'|zoomType='Large'|mapType='Satellite'|text='sv DWO'|key=''}
You can change any of the parameters, such as width, height to whatever you want although if its too small, you won't see very much.
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.
mapType can be Normal (default), Satellite or Hybrid.
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.
key is for the google map api key. |
