Hi just wondering if I can offset the center of a map to show the marker towards the bottom because its mostly ocean when its centered on the marker itself in the case of my map.

Hi I think I sorted this, sorry for bothering you.

In plugin folder in the file called simple-google-map-short-code.php I changed some javascript as below.

var map_<?php echo $map_id; ?>;
function pw_run_map_<?php echo $map_id ; ?>(){
var location = new google.maps.LatLng("<?php echo $coordinates['lat']; ?>", "<?php echo $coordinates['lng']; ?>");

// Added a new variable (set your own lat and long)
var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(52.0,  -7.0);

var map_options = {
zoom: <?php echo $atts['zoom']; ?>,

Original //center: location,
// New to call variables
center: latlng,

scrollwheel: <?php echo 'true' === strtolower( $atts['enablescrollwheel'] ) ? '1' : '0'; ?>,
disableDefaultUI: <?php echo 'true' === strtolower( $atts['disablecontrols'] ) ? '1' : '0'; ?>,
mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
}
map_<?php echo $map_id ; ?> = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("<?php echo $map_id ; ?>"), map_options);
				var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
				position: location,
				map: map_<?php echo $map_id ; ?>
				});
			}
			pw_run_map_<?php echo $map_id ; ?>();

Might help someone.
