Embedding Maps with a Custom Share URL

Using a custom share URL is a great way to have users stay within the page the map is embedded on. This is optional, but allows consistency with URLs and branding. To set up a custom share URL, there are two steps.

*Note: You must have already included the iframe code within your website for this passthrough javascript to work. Find instructions on embedding you map within an iframe here.

HOW TO  ADD THE URL TO THE CONTENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (Step 1)

1. Log into the CMS

2. Choose the Extensions tab.

3. Enter the Sharing URL and save your changes. The sharing URL will be the same URL for the page the map is embedded on. 

HOW TO PASS THE HASH WITH CUSTOM JAVASCRIPT (Step 2)

In order for the sharing URL to correctly point to the location, a snippet of custom javascript must be added after the iframe. In addition, there needs to be  a jquery library included in the page. If you do not have jquery, add the below:

 <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

1. Within your webpage html, include the applicable script below within a opening <script> tag and a closing </script> tag 

Your direct map link begins with https://map.concept3d.com, use this code: 

2. Test sharing a location to make sure the javascript was included correctly!
