map_zoom0-18The initial zoom of the Map. By default Waymark zooms the Map so all Data is visible.
basemapBasemap NameWhich Basemap to display when the Map first loads (instead of the default). The value must match a Basemap Name listed in Waymark Settings > Basemaps.

show_gallery0 or 1Whether to display an image gallery for Markers that have images associated with them. The default can be changed in Waymark Settings > Misc.
show_filter0 or 1Whether to display the Overlay Filter. This enables visitors to filter for which Markers, Lines and Shapes are currently visible on the Map. The default can be changed in Waymark Settings > Misc.

map_hashAlpha-numeric textBy default, Waymark adds a unique ID to the Shortcode HTML container like this: waymark-shortcode-23a60b. When you provide a Map Hash the ID will become: waymark-shortcode-maphash. This can be useful if you are adding multiple occurrences of the same Waymark Shortcode on a single page which will cause a “Map container is already initialized.” error.
