The Channel

What is Flidu’s Google Maps website widget?

It’s a Find Us / Get Directions channel inside your website widget — not just a buried footer link. It helps visitors see where you are and open directions before they leave your site.

Directions Link
One tap opens your configured map link in a new tab.
Address On The Row
By default, each location shows its city, area, or address, so visitors know where they’re heading.
Location Picker
With Multiple Locations (Pro and above), visitors pick a branch from a list and its map link opens.
Arrival Tips
In a location list, each entry can carry a short tip — parking, entrance, floor, or reception.
The Journey

From website visit to real-world visit

Turn “where are you?” into a short route — the visitor opens your widget, taps Find Us, picks a location if you list several, and your map link opens in a new tab.

On Your Website

How the Google Maps button appears on your website

It works as a Get Directions button for your website: visitors see a red map-pin row in your widget. With one location, the row shows your address under the title by default, and one tap opens your configured map link in a new tab. If you list several locations, the tap opens a list first, and each location opens its own map link.

Clinic
One reception entrance to guide patients to.
Restaurant
Parking behind the building, noted in the channel description.
Studio
A second-floor entrance that visitors often miss.
SaaS Office

Multiple Locations

Multiple locations for branches, offices, and venues

Visitors pick a location from a list, and that branch’s map link opens in a new tab. Each location has its own name, city/area, address, map link, arrival tips, and show/hide toggle — and locations can be reordered. Multiple Locations publishes on Website Widgets Pro and above.

Arrival Tips

Add arrival tips visitors actually need

Arrival Tips are Find Us–specific. In a location list (Multiple Locations, on Pro and above), each location shows its tip under its row — parking, entrance, floor, reception, or delivery details that a plain map link can’t give.

Visitor parking is behind the building.
Use the Harbor Street entrance.
Reception is on the 5th floor.
For pickup, use the side gate.
Weekend classes are in Building B.
Deliveries use the loading bay at the rear.

One Widget

Place Google Maps beside your other widget channels

Find Us can sit beside support, booking, pricing, and review channels — so visitors can contact you, ask questions, book, or visit, all from the same widget.

Channel Instances

Use more than one Google Maps channel in the same widget

Instead of forcing every address into one generic row, add separate Find Us entries for different visitor intents — each with its own label, sitting beside your other channels. Separate channels of the same type publish on Website Widgets Business and above.

Multiple Google Maps channels

Separate channel entries, each positioned beside other channels for a different job.

Main Office
24 Harbor Street, Suite 500
Event Venue
Pier Hall, 3 Dockside Road
Main Office + Event Venue
Store Directions + Pickup Counter
Clinic Locations + Emergency Entrance
Training Center + Workshop Venue
HQ + Warehouse / Delivery Gate

Not the same as Multiple Locations mode. Multiple Locations is one Google Maps channel with several locations inside it. Multiple Google Maps channels are separate channel entries you can place beside other channels for different visitor intents.

Page Context

Use different Google Maps widgets on different pages

Each widget can have its own channel mix, order, labels, and map setup — so every page can guide visitors to the right place. Running more than one published widget needs Website Widgets Starter or above.

Find Us + Ask AI

Use Google Maps with Ask AI

Ask AI can answer “where are you located?”, “do you have parking?”, or “are you open on Saturday?” from the content you’ve given it — and Find Us, on the Contact tab, gives the address and a link that opens directions.

Ask AI
Do you have parking, and are you open Saturday?
Yes — visitor parking is behind the building, and we’re open Saturday 10:00–14:00.
Ask AI answers location questions from your configured business content.
Find Us gives your address and a link that opens directions.
Flidu does not read live Google Maps traffic or route data — the map link opens externally.

Engagement

See how often visitors tap Find Us

From Website Widgets Starter, Analytics counts clicks on your Find Us channel alongside your other channels, and Pro adds a Top pages list. Analytics and Data Hub stay product-line specific.

Flidu counts widget engagement only. It does not record which location a visitor picked, visitor GPS, live routes, or whether a visitor arrived — your map link opens externally.

More than a basic map link

A buried footer link stops at one destination. Flidu puts your location one tap away in your website widget.

What Is Flidu’s Google Maps / Find Us Channel?
It’s a Website Widgets channel that puts your location in your widget: visitors tap it and your map link opens in a new tab. In the dashboard it is listed as Find Us / Maps.
Is This A Google Maps Website Widget?
Yes. It works as a Google Maps button for your website, inside your Flidu widget — one tap opens your map link for directions.
Is This The Same As Embedding Google Maps?
No. There’s no embedded map. Find Us is a button that opens your configured map link in a new tab.
Do I Need A Google Maps API Key?
No. There’s no Google Maps API, no runtime dependency, and no map quota to manage.
Can I Use A Google Maps Share Link?
Yes. Paste a Google Maps share link as your Map Link and a tap on the channel opens it.
Can I Use Another Map URL?
Yes. Any valid map URL works — Flidu simply opens the link you configure.
Can I Show Business Hours?
Not inside Find Us. To show opening hours, add the Business Hours channel, which lists your weekly schedule in the widget on Website Widgets Starter and above.
Can I Add Arrival Tips Like Parking Or Entrance Instructions?
Yes, in a location list. With Multiple Locations, each location shows its arrival tip under its row — parking, entrance, floor, or reception details.
Can I Add Multiple Locations?
Yes, on Website Widgets Pro and above. Switch to Multiple Locations and visitors pick a location from a list, then that branch’s map link opens. Every plan includes one location.
Can I Create More Than One Google Maps Channel?
Yes, on Website Widgets Business and above. You can add separate Find Us entries — such as Main Office and Event Venue — each with its own label, beside your other channels.
Can Different Website Pages Use Different Google Maps Setups?
Yes. With more than one published widget (Starter and above), each page can show the location, labels, and channel mix that make sense there.
Can Google Maps Appear Beside WhatsApp, Telegram, Booking, Reviews, Or Ask AI?
Yes. Find Us sits beside your other contact, booking, and review channels on the Contact tab, and Ask AI has its own tab in the same widget.
Does Flidu Track Visitor GPS Or Map Navigation?
No. Flidu tracks widget engagement only. It does not track GPS, live routes, or whether a visitor arrived — the map link opens externally.
What Can Owners Learn From Find Us Engagement?
From Website Widgets Starter, Analytics counts clicks on your Find Us channel alongside your other channels, and Pro adds a Top pages list. Flidu does not record which location a visitor picked.
