      Hello,

      I am having trouble getting my google maps sharable link to work with the iframe. I have downloaded and activated the fancybox pro plugin. Below is the code I am using.

      Map of historic properties in San Augustine County, TexasSan Augustine County Map

      Thank you,

      Ben Davis

      Hi Ben,

      Google Maps (like PayPal checkout) is one of those sites that have so called frame-break-out scripts running to prevent them from being embedded. If you wish to embed a Google Map, you’ll need to get the iframe embed code (same way as you got the link, just choose embedding option) … inside that iframe code, there is a URL that you need to extract. Copy the complete code snippet to a text file and find that URL in the src="..." part of the code.

      Copy that URL and use that to create your FancyBox iframe link.

      Also note that the map needs to be “Public” to be embedded like that…
