First Google Map

First Google Map Shortcode uses shortcode [googlemap] to covert a plain text address to a Google map. It can be placed on widgets, posts and pages.

If you are looking for a simple, light way to show Google map, First Google Map is the right plugin for you. It uses caching (wordpress object cache) to improve performance, reduce database access. The code is based on Brad Williams’ demo.

Shortcode

Shortcode: [gmap]
For example, to show Edinburgh Castle: [googlemap title=’Edinburgh Castle’ width=450 height=300 zoom=14]Edinburgh Castle, Edinburgh EH1 2NG[/googlemap]

• title: title of the Google map. Default: ‘Edinburgh Castle’
• width: width of the Google map. Default: 256
• height: height of Google map. Default: 256
• zoom: zoom of Google map. Default: 14
