Google Maps Integration And More


Steve Herschbach

Recommended Posts

I just did the latest update to the forum. There have been a lot of new "embeds" added. This is where you copy a link from another website, and the forum automatically includes the linked item into the post. YouTube is the one you are most familiar with, but the forum supports many more, like Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, etc.

One that might be particularly useful on the forum is Google Maps integration. Find a location in Google Maps, copy the link, and paste into the post. I did it for the Reno Events Center, and here is what you get....

That is way cool, Steve.

I want to try.......note the little arial view link in the bottom left of the map.  Click that and you get the arial view.  Beautiful.

Here is the little town of Cerrillos, NM.   The Casa Grande Trading Post is worth a drive to visit.  It also has some good hand drawn maps,although they are a bit pricey.
