I need to add the map in my wordpress site, but i have to put only the characters after ‘mid=’ Example:
-https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?msa=0&mid=zYSGCTGPw92M.kZ0t92LPNDTM the url of the address;
The problem is that now, whatever address i put in search field of google map, that MID does not change! So in the end i get to have the previous address again. Can anyone give me a hint, how does google maps work now?? How do i get that mid to change?
Thanks all, Best regards!
