CMS - Embed links & Maps

[Grant1 (Grant)]

Hi everyone,

Need some help with CMS,

I am after having a separate embed link on each of my CMS pages but cant see this as an option. If this is like the many features that webflow has not made available yet can you advise a work around?

Also the same with the map on each CMS page.

Thank you!!

It’s so frustrating how much customers are limited here.

Is there any work arounds for any of these?
