Plugin Joomla per visualizzare la cartina di Google Maps sul sito
La maggior parte dei siti aziendali (basati su Joomla, su WordPress o totalmente “fatti a mano”) contiene una sezione “Dove Siamo”, una pagina cioè con tutte le indicazioni geografiche per raggiunger la sede dell’azienda.
L’ultima tendenza è quella di inserire e integrare in questa pagina la cartina di Google Maps, che permette di zoomare e navigare tra le strade e le zone circostanti alla sede. Per facilitare e personalizzare l’inserimento di questa cartina su un sito con Joomla io utilizzo…
il mambot “plugin_googlemap2″. Questo plugin è in continuo sviluppo e potete scaricare qua l’ultima versione: Download .
Di facile utilizzo, ha un’interfaccia semplice con molte opzioni, quì di seguito una breve spiegazione dei principali parametri da poter impostare:

| lon, lat | for the coordinates or address to search for the coordinates (use standard of your country) |
| zoom | can be anything as specified in the Google Maps API. |
