Hide map type and overview in dynamic PHP map

[2point5kids]

I’m dynamically generating my map in PHP, and I want to hide as many of the map controls as possible.  I see that you have the ability to hide the map type and overview arrow when creating maps in the regular admin, but I don’t see how to do that in my PHP.

Help please.

Hi,

Here’s a shortcode to disable pretty much everything. You can find a list of the various options in the documentation – I was assuming the arrow you meaen is for the overview map control:

[mappress maptypecontrol="false" streetviewcontrol="false" traffic="false" overviewmapcontrol="false"]

Thanks, I had looked at that documentation and assumed that I didn’t need to set overviewmapcontrol because its default was listed as false.  It is actually true.

This is how my final code looks for a PHP implementation:

echo $mymap->display(array(“directions”=>”none”, “maptypecontrol”=>false, “overviewmapcontrol”=>false));
