Google Maps in Weebly

 

If you would like to include a map on your page to show a specific location, you can do so easily as Weebly has a built-in Google Maps element that helps you do just that. The configuration is simple, but there are some advanced options also. You may also wish to place your map in a layout for readability.

Adding and Configuring the Map

Start by dragging the Maps element to a page on your site.

Showing the location of the google maps element

The default map starts off in a small part of central San Francisco (home of Weebly!). You can easily change the location shown by clicking on the map. This opens up the Map popup. You can make a number of changes from here:

Advanced Map Configuration

You can also change a few of the less used settings via the Advanced menu.

You can also embed a map you've created in Google Maps directly to your site. Just grab the embed code from Google and paste into your site using the Custom HTML element.
