Support » Fixing WordPress » Trigger a map from a hyperlink?

  • Hi,

    Have a client that wants me to list their address in the sidebar of their site.

    THEN – when they view it on a mobile phone they want to be able to touch the address and be able to bring up a google map of the location.

    I have no idea how to do this.

    Any help?

  • Hi, one way to do this is the following:

    In Google maps, locate their address on a map.

    Adjust the map to how you want it to look, eg, zoom level, etc.

    Copy the URL of the Google map from your browser’s address bar.

    In WP put a text widget in the sidebar.

    Paste the URL into the Text widget.

    Add some nice descriptive text, have the link open in a new tab, etc.

    Done!

    You can also take a look for plugins……
