Change Map zoom

hi,

here’s another thread which may help you with this – https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/google-maps-zoom-level?replies=12

I tried all those and still not working and some ideas in other threads I found. Was hoping I’d missed a zoom setting somewhere.

I couldn’t find anyone who’d actually made it work.

So unless there’s another suggestion, I’ll have to revert to my normal maps plugin for this. It seems to be the only thing I can’t make work with this amazing plugin!

Have you tried adding alert(“testing”); to the code you’re using to check it’s being run when the page loads?

Yes and I get the alert box with OK in it.

This is the code I have put in my theme header.php

<script type="text/javascript">
alert("testing");
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
  $(document).bind('em_maps_locations_hook', function( e, map, infowindow, marker ){
    map.setZoom(2);
  });
});
</script>

Do you still see it if you put it under the line below?

jQuery(document).ready(function($){

No!!

did you add the custom js below the wp_head() in your header.php ?

No ?? but I have now and I can see the alert box but the map stays the same zoom regardless of the setting.

The map is in a textwidget in the sidebar as stated earlier. I have tried putting the code directly in a page but still the same. Can’t change the zoom…
