Displaying Maps
Learn about the options for displaying your map to users.
After you've made your map, you've got to show it off to everyone! There are a few ways to do this with Mapster WP Maps.
- If you use Gutenberg, there is a "Map Select" block, where you can choose from the maps you've created, and everything will be automatically taken care of for you 
- If you want to use Shortcodes directly (as in a widget, or on a post), you can find the shortcode on the Map Editing List (on the right-hand side, near the date you created the map) and copy-paste that shortcode where you like 
The following parameters are available for the shortcode [mapster_wp_map]:
- id-- this specifies the Wordpress ID of the map to be displayed
- zoom-- this specifies a custom zoom level that will override the one set in the map options
- latitude-- specifies a custom starting latitude, overriding map options
- longitude-- specifies a custom starting longitude, overriding map options
- single_feature_id-- used to display a single feature (a Location, Line, or Polygon), using the- map_idas the base template (without any of its default features showing). Use the Wordpress ID for the feature
- feature_ids— similar to single_feature_id, this allows you to load multiple features manually into your shortcode. Just separate the IDs with commas.
- You can use the map post directly and view it as a post, and it will automatically contain the map you created for it 
Please let us know if you need more options!
