How to identify and open a Blizzard map in Editor

I am a bit confused. I thought I could easily select a Blizzard map in Galaxy Editor, change some stuff and play my "modified" version locally.

But I cannot find a good method do to so.

I researched that my maps are cached in "C:\Users\All Users\Blizzard Entertainment\StarCraft II\Maps\Cache". There are folders named SomeHash.s2ma. Many sites say I have to just rename the s2ma file into sc2map, but this does not change anything only the directory has a different name.

Can someone help me to accomplish these steps:

1. I have a map name, say "Lost Temple" and I want the current Blizzard Bnet version.
2. I login and download / play that map.
3. How can I locate the exact cache location
4. (optional) How can I convert that file into sc2map
5. How can I open the file in my Galaxy Editor, edit it and play a locally

I know how to edit a given sc2map file, so once I open it in Galaxy Editor I should be fine.

I would accept to download a sc2map file from some site, but I prefer to know the steps to do it on my own, as versions change and not every site is up to date.

select blizzard maps in the dropdown
search for map name

I looked at that tab, but I did not login. Now I can select the right map. That was what I was looking for. Thank you lefix.
