Continuing the discussion from Embedding custom created Google Maps:
One more tiny, awesome detail of Discourse: Because gmaps embeds capture mousewheel events, thereโs an invisible shade over the embed that you need to click to remove. Click or tap once, and itโs usable. Donโt click or tap, and you can scroll on by.
