The autogenerated map links seem to have vanished from Oxford Guide pages. Could we have them back, please?

I removed the maps links at the same time as updating to leaflet, as it didn't seem worth maintaining a hacked display_metadata.tt any more, but I can put the links back if people want them.
Was it particularly streetmap you were interested in, still?

The map links are really useful - it'd be very helpful if you could put them back! The inline maps are too small for me. If you don't want to do this, though, I'm happy to write a script to populate the map_link field in the edit interface from the os_x and os_y fields.
Personally I mostly use the streetmap links, but others might prefer different ones.

I'd rather not denormalise the data like that :)

Nice! Would it be better to do it the other way around? As it stands, to use this in RGL/CGC I'd have to go through and remove all the map links from the data. Could we INCLUDE custom_auto_map_link.tt by default, and fall back to map_link only if there isn't one? Also, it might be better to call the template custom_auto_map_links.tt, since I at least will want to put in more than one map link.
Also, I'd like to see some tests for this new feature, as with all new features.

Okay. The logic is right for Oxford, because we assume that if a map link is provided, it's more interesting than a generic one. But the Oxford custom template can easily replicate that functionality.

Okay.
This is back on my list.
