Googlemaps Plugin Popular PluginLanguage

Plugin for displaying one or more Google Maps within content-items, modules or components of Joomla 1.5.x (native), 2.5.x and 3.0.x (1.6.x and 1.7.x too but not recommended).

Version 2.18 is the latest version. Now also support Joomla 3.0.

In Joomla 2.5/3.0 (1.6 and 1.7) the plugin can be upgraded automatically with the upgrade feature of Joomla at the extensions.

This is the last version where Google Maps API version 2 is supported because this Google Maps version 2 is deprecated from 19 May 2013. So please migrated to Google MAPS API version 3 (set the version to 3.x in the configuration of the plugin).

Also added language support for all the parameters: English, French, Italian and Spanish.
Please send me language files so I can add them to the plugin. Goto my website to contact me.

Look at the demo site first for documentation. If you've problems please do the checklist on the site: http://tech.reumer.net/Google-Maps/Documentation-of-plugin-Googlemap/checklist-placing-plugin-in-article.html

It's the the best PlugIn I have used for maps, and I have tried some of them. The support provided by Mike Reumer is fast (response within the day).
For those who want to place a GoogleMap on module position (that was my problem) the solution is placing it in an article and using the CustomContent Module (here following: Editing /Custom Code in Modules).
Also you can visit Mike Reumer's site and follow Documentation / Maps in components, modules & contact Joomla 1.5.x
Thanks Mike!

I think this is one of the easiest extensions I have ever used!

The only trick I found was the map key google supplied for www.mysite.com did not work - instead I had to use the key for mysite.com (without the www.)

Other than that it took about 2 minutes from download to finished! That's rare with most extensions.

A while back I wanted to include a GoogleMap plugin on my website that works like GoogleStreetview, but without streetview. I wanted a specific Google Map & Directions layout. A few days later Mike emailed me the modified plugin, and it worked exactly like I wanted it to.

Thanks again Mike.

Highly recommended plugin for Google Maps with tons of variables to suit your needs. Best part is, its a plugin.

This is the best maps plugin, and I have tried most of them. The support for this plugin is phenominal, as I had the developer himself answer my questions. End your search here. (I am not one to leave ratings on joomla extensions, but this one required it.)

Easy to install and setup. A beginner can get a map online fairly quickly. If you decide to dig deeper, there are plenty of demos and documentation on Mike Reumer's website to help you along. I got stuck one time, contacted Mike, and received the solution in less than a day. A perfect extension with perfect support. Thank you Mike!

Hi,
Thanks for the great plugin. This is working very good in the articles. Can we use this plugin in the custom component? If yes can you say the process please?
Actually I have placed the code in my custom component (out of php code)as
{mosmap width='500'|height='400'|lat=''|lon=''|zoom='3'|zoomType='Large'|zoomNew='0'|mapType='Hybrid'|
showMaptype='1'|overview='0'|text='sv DWO'|lang=''}

Then I didn`t get any map there. Just it is displaying the code only PLease say is it possiable? or not?

Thanks.

Does what it says and more. I have used this extension on several sites and it has always been very easy to use and is extremely customizable. Only once had trouble, and it was not due to the extension, but Mike got back to me with a solution almost immediately. Great plugin, great support. If you need to display maps on your site, look no further.
