What it does
Many sites need to tell visitors where to go: a shop, a clinic, a chain of stores or a list of service points. A plain embedded map rarely carries enough information, so visitors end up hunting for phone numbers and opening hours elsewhere. This plugin puts that information on the map itself. Each marker can open a card with a description, contact details, working hours and images, so a visitor can find a location and learn about it in one place.
Setup happens through a visual interface, so you can add and adjust maps without writing code. You place markers for each location, fill in their cards and choose which contact channels to show, such as email, phone, messenger or social media. The maps are responsive and retina ready, which means they adapt to desktops, tablets and phones and stay sharp on high resolution screens. It fits local business sites, multi-location brands and blogs that map out places.
Best for
- Local businesses that want visitors to find them easily
- Brands and chains with several store or office locations
- Travel bloggers mapping places they have visited
