Info boxes allow you to display additional information about an entry on a map by clicking the marker. When you click the marker, a box appears with content about that entry. This article will show you how to configure them using [GravityView Maps](https://www.gravitykit.com/products/maps/). Info box functionality was added in Version 1.4.

## In View Settings, click on the Maps tab

## Configure the Info Box settings

**Title:** This text will be used as a link to the single entry. If left blank, the default link text will be "View Details".

**Content:** You can use Merge Tags, shortcodes, and HTML in the Info Box content. Works well with [](https://www.gravitykit.com/docs/gravityview/shortcodes/gv-entry-link/) and [](https://www.gravitykit.com/docs/gravityview/shortcodes/gvlogic-shortcode/) shortcodes.

**Image URL** must be the full URL of an image. Use with Merge Tags from File Upload fields.

**Image Alignment** changes the placement of the image in the Info Box.
