I would like to embed a Google Map with a blog. As there is no 'Map Block' I realise I will have to use a html block and paste the Google Map embed code here.

Will the blog still be responsive or will the responsiveness break due to the fact I am embedding an iframe?
Hello Johnny,

If you are pasting the responsive codes generated by Google, it should be responsive (again it depends on what kind of html codes are you using from Google maps)

Even if it isn't responsive, you could add a class to your iframe and add a custom css in your Joomla template's folder to enforce iframe's of such kind to be responsive

I believe it's only about setting the width to be 100% and an auto height.

Hi there,

May i know on how want to display your locations? Is it inside your blog's content or outside of it?
If outside of your blog's content, you can use existing 'Add Locations' feature as you can see on composer itself as shown https://screencast.com/t/mKjv2hoZ. Those blogs will shown like this https://screencast.com/t/adgElbPfq if you use this feature.

Please advice.
