WMC Loader

Mapbender can save configurations (see WMC Editor). This configurations can be loaded with the element WMC loader.

You can add WMC Loader to your application as a selectbox or a button which opens a dialog.

When you choose a configuration, the services in the configuration will be merged in your existing application.

Controlling by URL

Load a WMC by ID

To allow loading by ID you have to enable Id Loader in the configuration of the element.

If you have a WMC with the id <wmcid> you may pass the URL parameter wmcid to load the WMC:

?wmcid=<wmcid>
