Mapoza Click-to-Load for Google Maps lets you embed Google Maps in a privacy-friendly and performance-friendly way.<\/p>\n\n

Instead of loading the Google Maps iframe immediately, the plugin shows a placeholder and button first. The map is only loaded after the visitor clicks.<\/p>\n\n

Features:\n* Shortcode-based map embedding\n* Loads Google Maps iframe embeds on click\n* Default settings for height, button text, and privacy message\n* Translation-ready\n* Lightweight and easy to use<\/p>\n\n

Example shortcode:<\/p>\n\n

[mapoza_ctlgm_google_map embed_url=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=...\" height=\"450px\" button_text=\"Load map\"]<\/p>\n\n\n
