How to get the MID of a location in google maps?

I need to add the map in my wordpress site, but i have to put only the characters after ‘mid=’ Example:

- the url of the address;

• mid=zYSGCTGPw92M.kZ0t92LPNDTM the part of the url i need to see;
• zYSGCTGPw92M.kZ0t92LPNDTM the code to put in google maps source field.

The problem is that now, whatever address i put in search field of google map, that MID does not change! So in the end i get to have the previous address again. Can anyone give me a hint, how does google maps work now?? How do i get that mid to change?

Thanks all, Best regards!

Check out this question for information on URL parameters. I'm not sure what you need the MID for, but it sounds like MID might be a Map ID (just guessing), which does not change even if make a new search. If you want to search via your URL try instead.
