Sometimes a business updates its space and the Street View images on Google become outdated. If the original tour was published by you, GoThru allows you to replace the old images with a new tour using the new backend.

Sometimes, even when your tour has multiple levels correctly set up in GoThru, the Elevator Widget (floor selector) does not appear on Google Street View. This guide explains why this happens and how to fix it using the new GoThru interface.

Levels allow you to organize panoramas by floor (e.g. basement, ground floor, upper floors) so they display correctly in GoThru and Google Street View’s elevator widget.
