[Pro] Link to Mapquest Map

Hi all,

I am new to Freeway, and am having trouble linking to a Mapquest map. I am sure it is very simple - I just haven’t been able to figure it out!

I will have a small button on my website that reads “Map & Directions.” When it is clicked, I would like a new page to open with my address mapped on Mapquest (not Google Maps). Mapquest gives me the sample code (see below), but I have not been able to make it a working link using the Edit Hyperlink function. Mapquest’s sample code is:

Map This Location

Anyone have any experience making something like this work?

Thanks very much,

Andrea Z.

Hi Andrea

Create the button > select the button > apple ‘k’ (edit hyperlink) select external from the top tab > paste full url in the box > select target and from the drop down > choose _blank (this will open the map in a new window) and that’s pretty much it.

Hope this helps

Regards
RG
