 * Hi
 * So far I like the functionality of this plugin however when I add a map to my
   blog post page it appears at more than full width despite the width being limited
   to say 400px. The set height seems OK.
    I need the map to appear in my post like
   a photo at say 400x268px.
 * Please help!
 * Thanks
 * Andrew

 * Yes, please tell me – right after Width input field, there are selectbox – % 
   or px, what is selected in your case there? Also, can you send me link to your
   map?

 * Hi. OK I saw that I had not changed from % to px, so I now have the width I want.
   I now have the following problems:
    1. The alignment to the right within the 
   blog post isn’t working (it stays left and then is also mis-aligned v the text).
   Alignment right has been selected. How do I get it left and how do I align it
   horizontally correctly both left and right? 2. The map doesn’t fit into the text
   in the same way as my photos. There needs to be a gap between the map and the
   text next to it (identical to the photos) 3. How do I get rid of the Google Maps
   Plugins text below the photo?
 * Thanks

 * Hello.
    You can wrap map shortcode into some html elemtn for example like this:
   <div style=”float: right; padding-left: 30px;”>[SHORTCODE]</div>

 * Hi and thanks, that solved it! How do I remove the plugin reference at the bottom?
   I understand you wanting to promote your plugin but I don’t think my readers 
   have any understanding of what a plugin is and it just gets in the way. Would
   that be possible?
