StoryMap on Wix website

RebeccaMiller · ‎07-23-2014

Hi everyone,

I am looking at creating a Story Map to go onto a website which has been created using WIX, does anyone know if it i possible to install the template onto a wix site? If not, is there any other play the story map can be hosted which is then somehow embedded into the website? Thanks

Hi,

I don't know WIX in details but you can embed all StoryMaps through a standard HTML Iframe which most of the hosting platform should support.

In Map Journal we gave you the Iframe code through the little chain icon in the header, it looks like:

<iframe width="100%" height="800px" src="http://story.maps.arcgis.com/apps/MapJournal/?appid=c3b8d991a0f24769a0f899d71201823b" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>

If you are not using Map Journal, just modify that code with the URL of your StoryMaps and should be good.

Great thank you, I hadn't seen story journal yet, it looks perfect

Hello again

Just to check is it only possible to get theiFrame code if I create the map in Story Journal?

Or can I also get the code for a Story Map Tour?

The reason I ask is I am creating a historical tour so it may be better suited to Map Tour app. I created a test tour, but could online find the URL of the map, and not the code to embed it.

Thanks

Hi,

We don't yet give the embed code in the Map Tour application.

You will have create it yourself by copy/pasting what you see in your browser bar.

Example:

The code to use is:
