Plugin homepage

Syntax little differently than in googlemaps plugin:

<googlemap3 width="number" height="number" lat="number" lng="number">
latitude, longtitude, short signature; long desctiption
latitude, longtitude, short signature; long desctiption with {{:some:image.jpg?300|with image}} and [[:page:link| link to page]]
latitude, longtitude, short signature without longdescription;
latitude, longtitude,;longdescription without signature 
</googlemap3>

Long description for marker you must write in one string, without line break.

Use a semicolon as separator is dictated by the desire to use a comma in the signatures, for example, “Anchho Mountain, height 2696m.”

You can disable the coordinates helper:

<googlemap3 width="number" height="number" helper="off" >

By default it is enabled.
