To create a new editable map you will have to create a map page, as well as a geojson page to hold all the data for the pins and markers.


Step By Step Guide


1.
First Create a geojson page. After the page is created, save the page. The name must not be in use if you want to create a new map.




Example: " geojson:RadensMapInfo "


2.
Save the GeoJson page. This is were the pins and markers information will be stored.


3.
Next create a regular page were your map will be. The page name must not be in use if you are creating a new map. Example: "Radens Map"





4.
When the page code loads, edit the line called " |geojson=<name> " and replace <name> with the name of the GeoJson page you created.


Example " |geojson=RadensMapInfo "




You can protect your map from being edited by going to the GeoJson page and clicking "more" followed by "protect". Note: you will not be able to edit the map if it is protected, you will need to un-protect the map to be able to edit it again.
