Hi Everyone,
I have a website where a client wants me to be able to provide a link on a Google Map to an exterior file.

Right now when you click a place location tha

Abie has you covered very well here with some some great guidance!

If you want to add a link inside the popup window, you can possibly use the Google Maps JavaScript API. You can access the API through the Google Maps Platform. With the API, you can create a custom map with a popup window containing the link to the external file. You can also add other features such as directions, photos, etc. (src:openaiplayground)


Create a map on your website using the Google Maps JavaScript API. You can find documentation and examples of how to do this on the Google Maps Platform website.

Set up an event listener for when a user clicks on a location on the map. You can use the "click" event in the Google Maps API to detect when a user clicks on a location.

When the user clicks on the location, display a custom popup window that includes the additional information or data you want to show, along with a link they can click to access it.

Use the "window. open" method in JavaScript to open a new window or tab when the user clicks the link. You can specify the URL of the external file or resource you want to link to in the "href" attribute of the link. (src:chatgpt)

Alex, I hope you find the above helpful.

Thanks, Abie,

This is helpful. I just need to figure it out. I do not know how to work with Javascript, but I will work my way through it.

I am doing a comparison of WA hosting vs others, and I was checking to see how much space is available for premium plus websites.

I see from the new premium plus benefit

The upgrade page, when you expand it below the plans, you will be able to see all kinds of data

https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/upgrade

You may discuss customization anytime with Kyle and Carson on their respective profile pages

Hi Abie, thanks for the reply, which is where I got the 60 GB for 10 sites. But I do not know if that 60 GB applies to grandfathered members, or if there is a different number.

Alex

Thanks I will

Getting Started

I have a website request for an interactive map, where you click a Lat, Long location. A popup would then direct you to data that is available for that location. (Oil well)

looks like you may need to add some server side php and be relying on the rest api....
so maybe worth talking to Carson ( the more techie one) as to whether it will be seen as a security risk with hte managed hosting here....
external hosting you can do almost whatever you want - even looking at other cms than wordpress...
a quick scan showed that you may need to develop a rest api - what about adding it as a plugin rather than python - this way it is fully integrated within wordpress...
the data can be added via acf plugin or similar....
not used but interested....
a quick scan of plugins brought up this one
Scientific and Interactive Blocks – inseri core
maybe of some use if it works in this envronment....

Thank you, for the answer. It may be a bit more than I want to get involved with right now, but still good information. It is appreciated.

Yes! Python is widely used in web applications for everything from backend development to automation and AI integration. Many websites leverage frameworks like Django and Flask for building scalable and efficient applications.

If you're exploring how Python is used in real-world applications whether for web development, AI, automation, or even game development this guide might help: What is Python Used For?

Checkout This resource 👉 https://www.cmarix.com/blog/what-is-python-used-for/

Python’s versatility makes it a go-to language for developers looking to build robust and dynamic web solutions. Are you using Python for a specific project?

Thank you for the reply. I will look at the guide.

Alex

I have viewed the cmarix.com site. It looks like just the thing I need - thank you.

Alex

Thanks, Abie,

I knew it would be good to ask the question here.
The WA community is such a great resource. If it can be done, most likely someone is doing it here.

Alex

I will, it will take some time, I am swamped for this month. I am scheduled to discuss this with the client in mid-March, as I cannot get to much of it until the end of February. However, you have given me some good leads to pursue.

Thank you

Alex
