        Hello! Loving this component - Zh GoogleMaps.
I am using the Map find control (geocoding) and it is working beautifully. I have one minor issue - the bicycle route does not work.
Ideally, a fix for this would be good, alternatively some way to remove 'Bicycle' from the list of Options?
Thank you.

        Hi.
If you mean "Bicycling" from drop down list when you draw a route - it works, but today there are not 2 parameters (used defaults)
- Avoid Highways = false
- Avoid Tolls = false
And in bicycle case - route drawing with Avoid Highways = false, and it means riding bike on highway.
In future releases I'll add this two parameters, and will set for bike and walk to avoid = true by default
I think like in google's routes - press parameter link

        Thanks for the reply.
I'm not sure you quite understand... or maybe I don't!
I am using a simple, basic map and allowing users to enter their address into the find control, and select destination from markers on the map. A route is then automatically drawn between the two points (I'm not drawing my own routes). It works fine with Driving and Walking. Bicycling just doesn't do anything. I shouldn't think google would consider any of the roads in my area (North of Scotland) as Highways either, so don't see why that would be a problem?
Any ideas on what I can do to remove or fix the bicycle option just now?

        I understand you right.
About year ago, when I create this feature all works. Now I've checked it on my maps - yes, it doesn't work.
Geocoder not return route, and I don't show anything.
I thing I'll add error catching and show error (for example you enter not real address or simple charter line without any sense).
And check, may be I need add some new (or correct) riding parameters for bike and walk route
I'll check it on next week
Thanks.

        What should I do now then? Will I just disable the Map Find Control entirely until you can release a fix? I can't really use it with bicycle not working - people would get confused.
Thanks for your support so far. An exemplary component overall.
PS entering a captcha every time I post is a little annoying! Is Kunena set to do that all the time or just for newbies like me?!

        If you need you can
- if you disable this feature - they can't draw route at all
- you can disable only drawing route, and people can find its address
- if you leave it for a week as is, for this time may be a few people try to ride bike, and the other can build route
- if you have a little programming knowledge - you can by yourself remove this parameter, until I fix problem
PS moreover, there is a new parameter "Transit" in documentation, I think I'll add it too when will change code
PPS I think captcha only for new members. In other case - a lot of spam
