Is there any plugin or another way to integrade with google maps? My purpose is when a user gives his post code to find his address in google maps.

Thanks a lot.

We don't provide a Google Maps plugin. It's relatively easy to output a Google Map from an address using their URL usage though. Example as follows.

www.google.com/maps/place/ADDRESS_HERE

This works with zip code as well and will highlight the zip code area. So you could just use a text field or integer field for them to supply zip code then use the profile value layout to substitute in the URL. Example as follows.

Code:
[cb:if cb_zip!=""] <a href="https://www.google.com/maps/place/[value]">Map!</a> [/cb:if]

If you want to embed the map you'll need to get an API key and use the below usage.
