Hi,

I have created a Field type for Maps, however I am unable to get it to display on the front end, any advice?
Also I am wanting to add a form to each page, should I start anew topic on how to create forms?

Hi Barry,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

Would you mind providing me with admin access to the website so that I can take a look at this for you ?

The private fields will be enabled for your next response.

Also please send me a link to the page that has the map on the frontend.

Thanks,
Shane

Hi,

I think I got it, I need to show map and marker...does this look correct or should the map code wrap the marker code?

[wpv-map-render map_id="map-4" map_height="500px"][/wpv-map-render]
[wpv-map-marker map_id="map-4" marker_id="marker-4" marker_title="This is where we will collect you" marker_field="wpcf-coach-holiday-pick-up-point"][/wpv-map-marker]

Yes, I think I have figured it out, did my code that was added to the page look correct to you?
