Avoid unwanted map interactions with the Google Maps Iframe.
Disable mouse scroll wheel zoom on embedded Google Maps
googlemaps-scrollprevent is an easy solution to the problem of page scrolling with new "Google Maps Iframe Embed".
This jQuery Mobile First plugin prevents Google Maps iframe from capturing the mouse's scrolling wheel / touch scrolling behavior wrapping the <iframe> with a transparent <div> on mouse / touch hover, so you must click / tap the unlock button to toggle the normal navigation. See the Live Demo.
This jQuery plugin is written with CoffeeScript that compiles in JavaScript, so the source files are a little different from standard JavaScript.
Please if you are using this plugin open an Issue with the tag showcase. If this plugin was helpful for you saving some time and effort. Can consider donate as a thank you. Thanks!

-
Include jQuery and googlemaps-scrollprevent Libs in your html.
<!-- html --> <head> // jQuery Google CDN <script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js?ver=2.1.4"></script> // googlemaps-scrollprevent rawgit CDN <script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdn.rawgit.com/diazemiliano/googlemaps-scrollprevent/master/dist/googlemaps-scrollprevent.min.js"></script> </head>
-
Start mapScrollPrevent including the following code.
<!-- html --> <script type="text/javascript"> $(function() { // Only Google Maps Selector var googleMapSelector = "iframe[src*=\"google.com/maps\"]"; $(googleMapSelector).scrollprevent().start(); }); </script>
Or Stop with:
// JavaScript // Stop $(googleMapSelector).scrollprevent().stop();
-
Edit defaults.
<!-- html --> <script type="text/javascript"> $(function() { // Only Google Maps Selector var googleMapSelector = "iframe[src*=\"google.com/maps\"]"; var options = { pressDuration: 1000 }; $(googleMapSelector).scrollprevent(options).start(); }); </script>
-
With Callbacks
// JavaScript $(function(){ $("#btn-start").click(function(){ $("iframe[src*='google.com/maps']").scrollprevent({ onMapLock: function() { // Your code here. alert("Map Locked") }, onMapUnlock: function() { // Your code here. alert("Map Unlocked") } }).start(); }); });
- Enqueue a script with jQuery as a dependency in yout
functions.php
```php
// PHP
// First Enqueue the plugin
function mapScrollPrevent_plugin() {
wp_enqueue_script( 'mapScrollPrevent', 'https://cdn.rawgit.com/diazemiliano/mapScrollPrevent/master/dist/mapScrollPrevent.min.js', array( 'jquery' ) , '0.6.4', true );
}
// Second Enqueue the script
function mapScrollPrevent_script()
{
echo '
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() {
var googleMapSelector = "iframe[src*=\"google.com/maps\"]";
var options = { pressDuration: 1000 };
$(googleMapSelector).scrollprevent(options).start();
});
</script>
';
}
// Do the hook
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'mapScrollPrevent_plugin' );
add_action( 'wp_head', 'mapScrollPrevent_script' );
```
// JavaScript
var options = {
"class": {
/* class for map wrap */
wrap: "mapscroll-wrap",
/* class for hover div */
overlay: "mapscroll-overlay",
/* class for progress bar */
progress: "mapscroll-progress",

},
/* Press Duration */
pressDuration: 650,
/* Unlock Trigger (overlay|button) */
triggerElm: "button",
/* Buton Icons */
