Google Maps goes live......

well it's finally here...... google maps on The Good Food Guide the tags on the map act as launch points to different pages on the site... Adding a map to your restaurant page is pretty simple. When you get to the edit page you should see a "show map" link just above the formatting characters list ( bold, italic, hyperlink etc ) clicking this should bring up the map ... zoom, pan till you get to the country / city / location you want.... A single click on the map should place a tag with 2 options.

1) insert map centered here : This is the first link you need to select. It will place a code snippet in the edit area ( make sure the cursor is blinking on a fresh link before you do this )



2) Add a point here : This will place another bit of code ( 44.33956524809713,59.765625,label goes here)... here again ensure that the code is place between the 2 google tags, so it looks like so.....


44.33956524809713,59.765625,label goes here


you can place as many tags as you want.. replace the "label goes here" with a link to your restaurant or city.. eg [[:Category:Paris|Paris]] or [[The Cafe, Paris]].

Hope you guys like this new feature....

Cheers...
