Nice website to create google maps in any color to fit your design.
I have an API key available.
Is it possible to insert this script in a cmsimple webpage?
Example:

Very quick and not tested:
1. create a file e.g.
userfiles/map-script.htm
2. copy/insert the generated code in this file.
3. on your webpage create a page e.g.
Map with an IFRAME
4. define the source for the IFRAME e.g.
Code: Select all
<iframe src="userfiles/map-script.htm"...><iframe>
The IFRAME may be styled by its own class or ID in your stylesheet.css.

Remotecontent_XH could be useful here.

From what I can tell, this is just about some fancy styling of Google maps. IIRC, there are Google maps plugins available for CMSimple_XH, so probably you could use that.

Of course, it is all about the fancy colours. It used to work until a few months ago. Snazzy announces they can only offer their maps if NOT used with an embed method (which worked fine a while ago).
I have put out a message on (an external Belgian site) freelancers site to help with this, but please feel free if anyone wants to take the "challenge". Does not have to be 'for free'.

I still don't understand where the problem is. On
https://snazzymaps.com/style/265611/moli, they offer to "download a simple example". Just copy & paste both <script> elements from the downloaded .html file into your CMSimple_XH template, and add <div id="map" style="width: 750px;height: 500px;"></div> to either the template or a page.
