The map is embedded into pages or posts using a shortcode, and there are settings to affect how it's displayed. Then you can create markers that will show up on the map using the featured image as the map icon.

Features

  • Each map marker can have a unique custom icon, share a common custom icon, or use the default icon.
  • Options to set the map type (street, satellite, etc), center location, size, zoom level, navigation controls, etc.
  • Setup unique maps on different pages with their own placemarks, map types, center locations, etc.
  • Placemarks can be assigned to categories, and you can control which categories are displayed on a individual map.
  • Marker clustering for large numbers of placemarks
  • Extra shortcode to output a text-based list of markers for mobile devices, search engines, etc.
  • Use HTML, images, etc inside the information window.
  • Compatible with WordPress MultiSite.
