< Template:MapframeForObjects

Because of this bug in Extension:Kartographer it is not possible to have automatic lat-lon and automatic zoom for objects that have type=line or type=shape via the standard Module:Mapframe and Template:Maplink.

Update - bug T227402 was partially fixed in Module:Mapframe when feature data are being loaded from Wikidata (this module edit), but when using "raw" parameter with custom KML the bug is still present in Template:Maplink.

List of bugs that affect performance of this template and also performance of Template:Maplink (these templates behave similarly):

  • T229800 - Map thumbnail does not show sometimes

Usage

This template is meant to be used for all map object types other than point (for example type=line or type=shape) and is especially meant for using the automatic map positioning and automatic map zoom. For these auto-features to work properly do not specify following template parameters:

  • frame-lat or frame-latitude
  • frame-long or frame-longitude
  • zoom

For other parameters the usage is same as in Template:Maplink - please see its help.
