Using the Map block, can I set the map popup content or the hint content as showing by default rather than on click

Hello and thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

That's not possible out of the box or with a setting. But, I think that you can trigger a click on a marker using Javascript. Can you share a URL where we can see this map and tell what marker you want its popup to be open?

Hello,
I do not have the maps public as yet.
The plugin I have used for many years is hidden link
It allows showing text and a link to "Directions"
This is very useful especially for Events at a single location. It would be cumbersome with many markers on a map, so a way to enable per marker would be great if you can help with that.

I am sorry, I don't understand what you meant. Will your map hols one marker or several? If it is only one, we can trigger a click on it programmatically. But if there will be several, we can only do it for one marker. Once a marker is clicked it will open its popup and close any other marker's popup.

If the map will have only one marker, Something like this should help:

jQuery( function( $ ){
    $('map>area' ).click()
})

If you will have several markers on the map, or several maps on the page, you might need to adapt the code. If you need further help, please share a URL where we can see the map and the marker(s), and let me know what marker should be opened.
