Google Maps Satellite view

  • Is it possible to specify in the simnor_map shortcode to force satellite view?

    The google maps API uses:

    mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP

    in “var mapOptions” to specify the map type. You would need to change google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP to google.maps.MapTypeId.SATELLITE (other options include HYBRID and TERRAIN)

    Hey,

    I’m not too familiar with writing WP plugins, but I dove into this and it was an easy enough change. I added a select menu on the shortcode creation page (simnor-shortcodes/includes/tinymce_button.js) and added the type to shortcode_atts arra (simnor-shortcodes/includes/shortcodes.php) which sets the map type in for mapTypeId

    It isn’t really a huge change, but in case you want to add it to your plugin, I’ve added a link below.
