[Resolved] Google Map marker from parent post field

I am trying to: display a marker on Google map in a child post type using a field from the parent post.

This part of the instruction is unclear to me:
-----
To define a custom source, you can also set a specific post, user or term ID using the id parameter of the wpv-map-marker shortcode.

In case of post fields, you can also use the following placeholders:

$parent for the native parent post
$post_type_slug for the Types parent post

When the marker from a term field is outside a View listing terms, term ID field is mandatory in order to display a valid marker.
----

This is the marker code at the moment:

[wpv-map-render map_id="store-map"]
[wpv-map-marker map_id="store-map" marker_id="store-address" 
marker_field="wpcf-address"][/wpv-map-marker]

wpcf-address is the field in the parent post. I've retrieved the title of the parent using

[wpv-post-title id="$store"]

, but I don't understand the proper syntax for the map marker.

I've pushed the site to staging. You can see the page result at hidden link

Hi, you will add the "id" attribute to the map marker shortcode, and use the "$store" operator to access the field in the store post type.

[wpv-map-marker map_id="store-map" marker_id="store-address"
marker_field="wpcf-address" id="$store"][/wpv-map-marker]

Is this map designed to only ever show one result at a time? If so, the marker_id attribute looks okay. If the map will contain multiple markers, the marker_id attribute should be unique for each result. You can add the post ID like this if the map contains more than one marker:

[wpv-map-marker map_id="store-map" marker_id="store-address-[wpv-post-id]"
marker_field="wpcf-address" id="$store"][/wpv-map-marker]

Christian, thank you for the help. It's working as intended now.
