 * Hi,
 * I try to place a location picker via google map into a post type, but doesn’t
   work out, it just shows name and desc but no any buttons. My code is:
 *     ```
       $meta_boxes[] = array(
       		'id'       => 'product_information',
       		'title'    => 'Product Information',
       		'pages'    => array( 'ptd_product'),
       		'context'  => 'normal',
       		'priority' => 'high',
   
       		'fields' => array(
       			array(
       				'name'  => 'Number of days',
       				'desc'  => 'How many days this travel product includes?',
       				'id'    =>  'numberOfDays',
       				'type'  => 'number',
       				'std'   => '2',
       			),
       			array(
       				'name'             => 'Location',
       				'desc'             => 'Where it is exactly located, pick it up in map',
       				'id'               => "location",
       				'type'             => 'map',
       			),
       		)
       	);
       ```

 * Hi,
 * The map uses another text field to fetch the address, so the map field can’t 
   go alone. This [demo file](https://github.com/rilwis/meta-box/blob/master/demo/map.php)
   shows how to implement the map field, please take a look.
 * Best regards
