How verify that the upgrade worked

  • Also in the Chiropractor2Web Options panel, note the Google Maps iFrame section replaces the image upload for your map. Now you can insert a dynamic Google map from http://maps.google.com. Just get the code snippet from Google Maps and insert it here to add a dynamic map to your site.
  • Looking at the page source of your website, you should see:
