Title: maps on your website
Post by: Matt Gibson on October 29, 2011, 06:12:10 pm: Right,

Am i just being thick? how do you add a static map to a page on your site? ive tried copying a map from google, wont let me do it, ive tried some of the DIY map websites, but it doesnt work either..

I just want a map of the areas we cover, without being able to zoom it etc..

Any help would be appreciated, ive been trying for a while, think im missing something simple.

Cheers,

Matt

You would change the url for the one google maps displayes for your listing.

Yeah i had a look at all that with google, but i dont want to display where my location is, i just want a picture of say, central scotland, to put on my page ''areas we cover'' it just has to be an image file, so ppl cant zoom or move it.
