[Qgis-user] [QGIS-Developer] Zoom to Scale Plugin - Should we include it on qgis.org?

[Keith Smith]

Hi all
I am a very new user of QGIS and am doing an online tutorial for our wild honeybee conservation work in Africa. I am using version 3.10 but the tutorial calls for us to load the Opelayers Plugin, I cannot locate that for this version?
How do I solve this as I need to bring in Google maps to help show landmarks in the bush in Malawi
I would appreciate a heads on thios
Thanks

This has some similarities to the QGIS 2 plugin called Tile Map Scale Plugin which was never updated for QGIS 3.
