Hi there,

I would like to stop google map zooming in with mouse wheel, but retain the rest of the functionalities, map marker and map marker box, manual zoom, etc. I can stop map zooming with CSS, but my code freezes the whole map and removes mentioned functionalities. Is there a code to stop just the mouse wheel zoom?

X: v. 3.2.3
WP: v. 4.2.2

Many Thanks in advance,
Bobby

Hi Bobby,

To prevent scroll, you can add this under Custom > CSS in the Customizer.

.page-id-617 #x-content-band-5 .x-map .x-map-inner iframe {
     pointer-events: none;
}

Hope that helps.

Ahh – Sorry, jumped the gun there! Thats what I meant by “I can stop map zooming with CSS, but my code freezes the whole map and removes mentioned functionalities.” – if you check my map now, you will see that +/- and directions link are also disabled. Is there a way to stop JUST the mouse wheel? Thanks!

Hello There,

Please try to edit your contact page and change the zoom control of your Google Map settings.

This allows to disable the zoom control of the map.

Hope this helps.

Hi, sorry I don’t have that setting. I use “map” widget within column where I have inserted an iframe. Tried using ‘Google map” but its not rendering the address correctly, hence using an iframe.

Hi there,

If you are using an iframe, unfortunately, it’s not possible to disable the zoom on an iframe. It’s only possible if you are using advanced [google_map] shortcode: http://theme.co/x/demo/integrity/1/shortcodes/map/

Thanks!

OK Thanks.
