Rather new to umbraco. Trying to get a scribble map embedded in our website, but umbraco says it is not supported. Would anyone know if there is a workaround to embed such a map? Or would you know an alternative mapmaker?
My map needs to show pins in a number of location with a short text explanation when clicking on the pin - so nothing too complicated I would say.
Thanks for your replies All. Reading the links you provided, I realised I lack a huge amount of knowledge to properly work with umbraco. Will have to read up first to be able to follow your advices at all.

Hi Harro,
What do you mean Scribble Maps?
Can you share code example?
Thanks,

Thanks for your reply Alex.
Scribble maps: www.scribblemaps.com.
When you make a map you get the following embedding / sharing options
or an embedding code
hope this helps?
Thanks in advance Harro
Hi Harro,
Okay since you have an iFrame, then I would add a textarea to your document type, so the editors can add the iFrame code on the page. https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/getting-started/backoffice/property-editors/built-in-property-editors/#textarea
When you have done this then add the iFrame code on the page, and then write out the value on the template or a partial view using Razor code.
You could use code something like this:
Remeber to change the "documentTypeAlias" so it match your alias for the field.
If you want to use strongly typed Razor then you can use this code. The code above is dynamic Razor code.
Hope this helps,

Hi Harro and Dennis,
Also you can add it like macro to your rte I think.
