Now let’s move on to the module setting.

5.1.Content

Basic Layout

  • In the “Basic” layout settings, you will see this dropdown menu.
  • In the “Content” menu, you can customize the map’s appearance, add title and descriptions, and set the location that you want to display on the map.
  • The iFrame code can be used to embed the responsive Google Maps on your website. You can generate this code on Google Maps easily.
  • To set the location of the map, click on the “Location Card” tab and proceed to clicking on “Content”, enter the address, city, state, or zip code of the location you want to display on the map.
  • Under the “Content” button, there is also a details button where you can add further details or redirect links to your outset, right on the map!
  • Below the “Content” section on the location card, we also have a “Card Position” dropdown where you can choose the position where your location card appears on the map.

Advanced Layout

content advanced
  • In the advanced layout module settings, you will see these dropdown menus, with each of them working to customize your map addition.
  • The “Content” and “Layout” dropdowns function similarly in both the layouts, so let’s jump straight to the “Location”, “Map” and “Pointer”
  • Starting with the “Location” menu. Here, you are required to provide the latitude and longitude coordinates of your location in order for the marker to show up on the map. You can also add a “Button” to the map and the location’s image on the Info Card that you can customize according to your needs.
  • Moving onto the “Map” menu, you will get a variety of options to customize your map content, location, zoom level, as well as the Map Themes.
  • Next comes the “Pointer” dropdown where you can edit the map pointer icon as you please. 

5.2.Styles

Basic Layout

  • Once you’ve set up the location, click on the “Style” tab to customize the appearance of the map. Here, you can edit the content, map, and location card appearance.
