Google maps default zoom changed? - google-maps

I used to have a part of a web page for a venue display a map:
<iframe width="934" height="200" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="http://maps.google.com/?q=loc:36.12829973975456,-115.16433477401732&ie=UTF8&ll=36.12829973975456,-115.16433477401732&output=embed"></iframe>
Example of the complete page is here:
http://www.nationalvip.com/venue/4a9248d6f964a520091d20e3/xs-nightclub
This used to render to a pretty decent default street view. Somehow now I get the whole globe displayed and wrapped around. Any guesses as to what can be going on? Is there an easy fix for this?

Not sure what happened to your link, but the following should work
<iframe width="934" height="200" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="https://www.google.com/maps/place/36%C2%B007'41.9%22N+115%C2%B009'51.6%22W/#36.128279,-115.164285,39m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0x0?hl=en-US"></iframe>
It is a satellite view, not a Google Street View, but Street View may not be available for those coordinates.

Google Maps URL Structure For Zoom

Trying to change the zoom level of the map returned below. I am using it as a link in excel. Have looked around and thought this should work as I change the z=1 to z=2, etc.

That is with the "old" google maps, it was never documented and no longer works. If you want a URL for an embedded google map, use the Embed API, it has a documented zoom parameter.
example 2 embedded maps, just changing the zoom parameter in the URL

Google Embed Iframe shows full world map (not location)

I am using the above code to embed a google maps preview on a website. But, the problem is, it is zooming all the way out to the entire world map when placing on website. When I click preview embed size (custom size) on google maps when creating the map, it shows perfectly.
Screenshot included of how it is showing up on website located here: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!category-topic/maps/issues-and-troubleshooting/maps/mac/chrome/KaQPRdnK4ZU
Am I doing something wrong? I'm new to embedding google maps.
this seems to work:
<iframe width="425" height="350" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="https://maps.google.com/maps?t=m&hl=en-GB&gl=US&mapclient=embed&ie=UTF8&ll=35.432002,-78.795919&spn=0.04336,0.084543&z=14&iwloc=lyrftr:m,1091553228966483181,,&output=embed"></iframe><br /><small>View Larger Map</small>
See here: http://jsfiddle.net/5zpd9/
On the older version of Google Maps, has gives you the embed link when click the Chain Link icon:
Oh, and the newer version can be linked by pressing 'Share and Embed map':
Which will show the newer version using:
<iframe src="https://www.google.com/maps/embed?pb=!1m14!1m8!1m3!1d26008.454059026204!2d-78.795912!3d35.428624!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x0%3A0xf25f9e0e1fa54ed!2sLillington+Veterinary+Hospital!5e0!3m2!1sen!2sus!4v1393365205127" width="600" height="450" frameborder="0" style="border:0"></iframe>

how to display a map location from your website using google maps

How do I display map locations on load from my database using google maps?
Let's say I have 3 addresses from my database:
1685 Centennial Way Corona California Riverside County 92882
25492 Centennial Way Corona California Riverside County 92882
1596 Centennial Way Corona California Riverside County 92882
They all have different pages, but I want them to load the location in an iframe of google maps when the user clicks the page. Is there any code that can help me to achieve that without manually embedding the iframe code from google maps website?
<iframe width="425" height="350" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="https://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=1685+Centennial+Way+Corona+California+Riverside+County+92882&aq=&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=42.089199,86.044922&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=1685+Centennial+Way,+Corona,+Riverside,+California+92882&t=m&z=14&ll=33.858119,-117.598538&output=embed"></iframe><br /><small>View Larger Map</small>
Generate all these values from my website to eliminate the need to manually get the code from google maps.
In Google Maps, there is a Link button (looks like a chain) which gives you the HTML for an iframe with your searched location.
For example, for your first example, it is as follows (line breaks inserted for readability):
<iframe width="425" height="350" frameborder="0"
scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0"
src="https://maps.google.com/maps?
f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&
q=1685+Centennial+Way+Corona+California+Riverside+County+92882&
aq=&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=53.87374,114.082031&
ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=1685+Centennial+Way,+Corona,+Riverside,+California+92882&
t=m&z=14&ll=33.858119,-117.598538&output=embed">
</iframe>
The GPS data is unnecessary here, so you can make it:
<iframe width="425" height="350" frameborder="0"
scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0"
src="https://maps.google.com/maps?
f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&
q=1685+Centennial+Way+Corona+California+Riverside+County+92882&
ie=UTF8&hnear=1685+Centennial+Way,+Corona,+Riverside,+California+92882&
t=m&output=embed">
</iframe>
The link version, if necessary, is the same, except without escaped &s (&):
https://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=1685+Centennial+Way+Corona+California+Riverside+County+92882&aq=&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=1685+Centennial+Way,+Corona,+Riverside,+California+92882
You can then replace the address component with the relevant one (and properly URL-encode it) with your choice of scripting language.

How to eliminate the popup window in Google Maps new code?

How do I get an embedded Google Map not to show the pop-up window above the location marker on the map?
One used to change "iwloc=A" to "iwloc=near", but "iwloc does not appear in the code Google gave me.
Here is the code:
<iframe width="760" height="480" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="https://maps.google.com/maps?client=safari&oe=UTF-8&q=1324+Portesuello+Ave,+Santa+Barbara,+CA&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=1324+Portesuello+Ave,+Santa+Barbara,+California+93105&gl=us&t=m&ll=34.415053,-119.726944&spn=0.033988,0.065145&z=14&output=embed"></iframe><br /><small>View Larger Map</small>

google maps image not loading?

So, on the following page, the first broken image you see should be one linking to google maps. If I open up chrome's inspect tool, and right click on the src attribute to open it up in a new tab, it works fine, but it renders as a broken image on the page for some reason. any ideas?

Just follow these instructions of google self: http://maps.google.com/help/maps/getmaps/plot-one.html
In your case you need to add the following code to your html:
<iframe width="425" height="350" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="http://maps.google.com/maps?daddr=19+Chalda+Ct+San+Rafael+CA+94903&ie=UTF8&t=h&ll=38.006014,-122.521711&spn=0.006295,0.007989&output=embed"></iframe><br /><small>View Larger Map</small>
