 * I’d like to use the shortcode in a page template, but the following simply echos
   everything to the screen, but does not render the map:
 * `echo do_shortcode('{google_map}'.$locaddress.'{/google_map}');`
 * This is per the Function Reference:

 * Unfortunately the current version of the plugin doesn’t support shortcode. However,
   the support can be added in the future.

 * Hi Nikka,
 * Thank you for the feedback. Support for shortcode has been hanging on my todo
   list for quite some time and I’m planning to implement in December, finally.
 * Best regards,
    Petteri

 * Hi Nikka and Borellidesigns,
 * New version 3.2 of Embed Google Map plugin was just released and it supports [
   google_map] shortcode. You can use it in templates like this:
 * echo do_shortcode(‘[google_map]’.$address.'[/google_map]’);
 * Best regards,
    Petteri
