Map
You can chose a Map block by selecting from the Add Block and selecting a Map. It will render a Google map.
This is the normal view mood of the map. IF You watch something like this, Then you must supply Google Map API Key. We will HIGHLY recommend you to use a tiny small Google Map Loader Plugin ( https://github.com/redq/googlemap). It is like an essential thing because Google Map Loader Plugin asynchronously loads The Google Map API and other things like RichMarker and InfoWindow APIs. Thus improving the performance on the Frontend side.
