Every Mapvera map is built from one or more levels — a floor, a wing, or just a single overview image. This is where you upload each level's picture and control how visitors move between them.
Open the Levels tab
-
Open your map in the editor
Sign in to Mapvera and open the map you want to work on in the Advanced Editor.
-
Go to the Levels tab
In the left-hand panel, click Levels.
A brand-new map has no levels yet — you'll see “No levels yet” until you add one.
Add a level and its image
Each level needs its own map image. You can upload an SVG, JPG or PNG — SVG stays crisp at any zoom, so it's ideal for floorplans.
-
Create the level
Click + New Level. An empty level is added to the list and opened ready to edit — no file dialog is forced on you, so you can set it up in any order.
-
Upload the level image
In the level's fields, click the Map button and choose your image. It uploads and appears as a preview thumbnail.
-
Name the level
Set Level name to the label visitors see in the on-map level switcher — for example
Ground,Level 1orCar Park. -
Choose the starting level
Turn on Show by default for the level that should appear first when the map loads. Only one level can be the default.
Level fields explained
| Field | What it does |
|---|---|
| Level name | The label shown in the on-map level switcher, e.g. Ground, Level 1. |
| ID | A stable identifier that landmarks use to say which level they sit on (and used in deep links). Set it once — changing it later can unlink landmarks from this level. |
| Show by default | The level the map opens on. Only one level is the default. |
| Map | Upload or replace this level's main image (SVG, JPG or PNG). |
| Minimap image (optional) | A smaller version of the level image for the corner minimap (when Minimap is switched on in Settings). Leave blank to reuse the level image. |
Order and manage levels
The order of the list is the order of the on-map level switcher — the level at the top of the list is the top of the switcher. So a tower usually runs top floor first, ground last.
-
Reorder levels
Use the ↑ Up / ↓ Down buttons on a level, or drag it by the ⋮⋮ handle to slot it exactly where you want.
-
Delete a level
Click Delete level and confirm.
Landmarks on a deleted level are kept, but you'll need to reassign them to another level (in the Landmarks tab).
-
Publish your changes
Click Save & Publish in the top toolbar to make your levels live. Every publish is saved as a version you can roll back to later.
