Map Shortcode

To add a basic map to your page you need to use Visual Composer:

  1. Edit the page and add an empty row
  2. Inside the row add the Google Map shortcode
  3. To set your map markers, first set the Marker Addresses field. Divide addresses with pipe character |
  4. If you want to set the latitude and longitude instead, add them to the Marker Lat/Lng, comma separated, as in 
     30.2174524, 23.9336277 | 31.2174524, 23.9166277

    Divide coordinates with pipe character |. Adding both addresses and lat/lng, the addresses option will be used
  5. If you want to set labels for your markers, add them in the Marker Labels field by the same order you have set your markers.
  6. Fill in the rest of the shortcode options to fully customize your map.
