I am trying to set the "push to talk" settings. I want to use a mouse button (key 3 or 4) which is easier than pressing on the keyboard. However, going to settings and changing it to "push to talk" a...

While I understand the problem of the OP was already solved, there is another thing that might be a factor for someone else (coming to look for solutions to a similar problem):
Only five buttons on a mouse can usually be mapped directly: The left and right, press of the mouse wheel ('middle button') and then two of the auxiliary buttons (usually the easiest to access thumb buttons).
Buttons beyond that will not register as input, so in order to use them in game, you'll need to map them to a keyboard event in the mouse software. You can usually do this either globally, or on a game-by-game basis.
So if you wanted to map your third thumb button to "Full Map", you would assign it to the keyboard event "M" in your mouse software for the profile that's active with BFV.exe.
@EA_AticThe mouse I had the mapping problem was the Logitech G700s. Only the lower thumb buttons (G4 and G5) were recognized. The other two (G6 and G7) as well as the rest of the buttons peppered around the mouse (G8 - G11) could only be used in games by mapping them to keyboard events.
My current G305 only has two thumb buttons and I've had no desire to map the one extra button - I've felt being able to confirm that battery has plenty of power is more important.
Edit: Also note that these two mice are from generations apart, and the mouse software supporting them is different: G Hub for the recent models and LGS (Logitech Gaming Software) for those from a few years back. (SetPoint for the really old ones from late 2010's.)
Edit 2: For some reason, editing this post on mobile kept applying the spoiler tag on the edit. Couldn't remove it.
