=== Simple Google Map === Contributors: taylor_CNP Donate link: Tags: google, google map, google maps, simple google map, no api key Requires at least: 2.8 Tested up to: 2.8.4 Stable tag: trunk This plugin will embed a google map using shortcode. == Description == # Simple Google Map We just needed a little embedded google map on the contact page. Every other google maps plugin either was depreciated or just plain didn’t work. So we made our own. And we thought we’d share it with you. ## How it works Google recently released version 3 of their Maps API. The short story is they made it smaller and faster, but with less features. The biggest advantage is that it doesn’t require an API key. So all you have to do is install this plugin and set a few options! Lucky you. For an example and more visit [the plugin's homepage](http://clarknikdelpowell.com/wordpress/simple-google-map/ "Simple Google Map by Clark Nikdel Powell"). == Installation == 1. Upload `SimpleGoogleMap.php` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory 2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress 3. Insert the shortcode into your posts or pages. The shortcode name is SGM and here are the options.. * lat [int] – the latitude of the marker and the center of the map. * lng [int] – the longitude of the marker and the center of the map. * zoom [int] – the zoom level (0-19). * directionsto [string] – the destination address for getting directions. obviously you want this to be the address of your latitude longitude coordinates. * content – what goes inside the infoWindow (speech bubble) that appears when the marker is clicked.
