Add a bounding box parameter to URL

[pcav]

so to be able to have a link that points directly to a specific location. See qgis-web-client for an implementation (permalink)

First step done (not yet commited). Added the ability to use a bbox parameter to zoom to a chosen location. I will also add an option in the plugin to allow the user to set the initial extent.

Thanks. What is the syntax for adding the parameter?

[mdouchin]

It will be simply be
&bbox=xmin,ymin,xmax,ymax
I will push it monday morning when I come back to the office.

Hs this been committed?
Thanks.

This has not been implemented with a bbox parameter but with 3 parameters : lon, lat & zoom level. You can zoom on any location, then use the "Permalink" link in the top right corner of the map. For example
https://demo.lizmap.3liz.com/index.php/view/map/?repository=montpellier&project=montpellier&lon=429583.78346480185&lat=5405628.442062924&zoom=4

BBOX seems more standard, and easier to use in many contexts: would it be possible to add both syntaxes?
