How to Use Google Maps in Your Wix Blog
Would you like to add a map to your blog post and just found out that Wix Apps don't work in blog posts. Well, there is a way around that.
Use a Free Map Generator that You Can Embed
Use the free map generator Embed Google Map and get your map in your blog post in just a few clicks!
This is what you should do:
Add the name of the area eg Aruba
Zoom the map the way you would like it to appear.
Set the dimensions; you probably have to play a little with this. I started with 900 px but then saw it was too wide for the blog. Probably best to limit the width to 700 px.
Click Get HTML-Code
Copy the HTML-Code
In the Wix New Blog
Now go to your blog post in Wix
Click + in your blog post and select </>
Click the +pencil
Paste the code
Click Update
Click on the map that you just inserted and set the width |<->| and height of the map. Best to use the same dimensions as you used in Embed Google Maps. I ended up using 700 x 400 px.
The Result
That's it, you're all set now. The map (700 x 400 px) looks like this:
