Im trying to build a link that goes to a page with a map and that also opens a marker. I have the fis code on the map page for testing which works (ive removed variables for testing)

locate Sutton

However if i move it to another page like this the marker no longer opens

locate Sutton

Is this possible to do?

Hello,

There isn't such a built-in feature within Toolset Maps plugin, you might need to consider custom JS codes.

For example:
1) In the "another page", setup a HTML link, pass the marker ID as URL parameter to target page.

2) In the target page, setup JS codes, get the marker ID from URL parameter

3) And use JS codes to click the focus link specified URL parameter:
hidden link

For your reference.
