Hi,

I'm trying to display a map directly in a custom page template like :

...
echo do_shortcode ('[wpv-map-render map_id="map-1" map_width="100%" map_height="180" fitbounds="on" general_zoom="4" single_center="on" cluster="on" draggable="on" double_click_zoom="on" map_type_control="on" street_view_control="on" zoom_control="on"][/wpv-map-render]');

echo do_shortcode ('[wpv-map-marker map_id="map-1" marker_id="marker-1" marker_field="wpcf-address"][/wpv-map-marker]');
...

This code displays correctly the map and marker but doesn't show any button (zoom+, zoom -, etc...) so I can't navigate in the map.

I don't understand what I am missing ?

Thank you for your help.

Hi Shane,

Thanks for your answer but I can't find the solution : the link that you gave me is the link of the actual page.
Can you send me the link of the solution page ?

Thank you very much

Hi Shane,

Thank you for your reply but the solution is :

"Do not use ShortCodes when you call parent data with PHP, instead use the API to create a custom ShortCode to return the same values or echo the API directly if needed/possible."

If I can't use do_shortcode(), can you explain to me how can I create a custom shortcode to replace wpv-map-render and wpv-map-marker ?

Thanks

Hello,

Is there a reason why you would like to load this directly from the php template?

Perhaps I could provide an alternate solution based on the scenario.

Please let me know.
Thanks,
Shane

Hello,

I'm using a specific page template from my them, I'm integrating a map directly in the template, I'm not using View for this.

It seems like you don't have a solution for this issue.

Hello,

What I would need to do in this case is escalate your ticket for assistance from our second tier supporters because i'm not aware of an API that can render the map directly on the template without the do_shortcode function.

Once I get any information then I will let you know.

Thanks,
Shane

Hi Shane,

Thank for your help and time, I found the error, maps need to have a min-height = 200px to display button control....

do_shortcode() works correctly with the shortcodes wpv-map-render & wpv-map-marker
