Google Maps

<googlemap> embeds an interactive map centered on a place search:


<googlemap place="Colosseum, Rome" />

Attributes

All attribute values must be in double quotes.

Attribute	Meaning	Default
`place`	The place to show — anything you’d type into Google Maps search. Required.	—
`width`	Width in pixels, clamped to 200–1200	`600`
`height`	Height in pixels, clamped to 150–900	`450`
`maptype`	`roadmap` or `satellite` — nothing else	`roadmap`
`region`	Two-letter region code biasing the search, e.g. `region="KR"`	—

The map scales down responsively; width/height set its maximum size and aspect ratio.


<googlemap place="Jeju Island" maptype="satellite" width="800" height="500" />

The stock template {{Googlemap|Colosseum, Rome}} is shorthand for the plain form.

When nothing shows up

The tag renders nothing at all (no error box) when it can’t produce a map. The usual causes, in order of likelihood:

Missing place, or single-quoted attribute values.
A maptype other than roadmap/satellite, or a region that isn’t exactly two letters.
The wiki’s operator hasn’t configured a Google Maps key — embedding is a per-wiki operator setting.

For operators: set GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY in the engine’s environment (a Maps Embed API key). The key appears in page HTML by design — restrict it to your wiki’s domain in the Google Cloud console.
