Running JavaScript/Google Maps
-
I’m trying to get some JavaScript to show a map, it is for a map with our business locations on it using the google maps API. I’m not sure how to link to the script AND get it to run/show.
This is the guide I followed here for the map code.
This is the link to my JavaScript file.
This is the HTML I open to show that it actually works.
This is the CSS file.I’ve tried
<script> type=text/javascript" src=//brabazon.us/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/script.js"></script>
I don’t get any errors, nothing shows up.I am trying to get it on this page here.
The theme I am using is the “Canvas Child Theme”
I’m also a noob.

I’ve also tried this
<script> src="//brabazon.us/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/script.js" async=""></script>No errors in console, nothing dislpays.I’ve also noticed that after I submit that and I go back in it gets changed to `<script>// <![CDATA[
src=”//brabazon.us/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/script.js” async=””>
// ]]></script>`That looks like a guide to modify a theme, which I don’t think I want to do. I just want to embed this map into a page that already exists.
Maybe a plugin is the way to go… I had hoped this wasn’t true because I went through all the effort into finding that guide and adding in all my own info to the jscript. LAME
I’m going to try WP Google Maps and see how it goes.
