Google Maps Geocoding + Styled Map Demonstration
One of the problems we often run into with Google Maps is that they come in iframes. Frankly, iframes suck. They have no SEO value, you can’t style what’s inside of them, and they’re difficult to make responsive. While the Google Maps API still falls back on them when it renders, at least we can make a lot of options dynamic. Dynamic options can be driven by PHP, or WordPress ( something I experimented with but didn't finish here ).
The method of doing so, however, is a bit opaque; unless you’re really into reading API documentation. Want to figure out how to geocode an address then show it in a styled Google map? LOL U, have fun reading. I mean really, would it be so hard to get a nicely commented example?
Stay thirsty, my friends.
