Thank you John
Another question. How can i get the coordinates for the starting point on a route?
Thomas
The easiest way to do this is to download the route as a GPX Track file. You can open this in any text editor and see all the coordinates.

Hi, great site.
I found a syntax to display the embedded animation in kilometers and to choose a particular map type. What other options are supported? The playback speed is a bit to fast for what i would like to do, and I would like to add the time (set the start time with a set pace, default pace of 6 is fine). Is it possible to set the playback speed in the embedded html? Is it possible to have the time of day also shown.

Hi John - glad you like ths site. At present I'm afraid there are only two options to override the default embedded maps settings - the units and map type. I've added your suggestion to our feature request list though (number 51), so anyone interested in this can vote for it there.
John
Thanks for the response. /John
Hello, I've embedded maps on my website https://bikingwithkidsadventure.wordpress.com/2016/05/28/wonder-filled-washington-our-route-part-1/ and the map doesn't show when I load it. It just shows a hyperlink. I'm on a laptop using Google Chrome. Thanks for any help!
Derek
Hi Derek - It looks like you've just got the link to the route map on your website rather than the full HTML code needed to embed the map. Maybe the content management system you are using has stripped out the iframe code? You'll need to copy and paste the full embed code we provide and ensure that this unchnaged when you publish your web page.

Hi - can you share the link to your blog page and I have a look at it?
John
Thanks John. Problem is, I having published it because the preview shows it doesn't work.
Once I save it, it doesn't show on visual the map anymore only the two links, which I've pasted below. I think WordPress is not allowing this embed map. Because once it's passed into HTML version it change the whole link, and shorten it.
Do you know WordPress blogs which could embed your map without problem?
