  • Very useful plugin

    As I am developing a site for a Mountain Refuge I was desperate to find a plugin that would help in their request to show the paths and trails around the mountain. Not only is this the only one that works well, but does the job I required. Great work!

  • fatal error fixed, great plugin

    Elisabeth turned around a fatal error into a working plugin really quickly. The plugin works, looks good and does what I want - what more can you ask for? Howard

  • Good combination of features

    I need to display both a map with points of interest as well as displaying GPX tracks. This is the first plugin that I've found that easily combines both features into one plugin. I've used other separate plugins for each feature, but often when you have two map plugins on one page you get display errors or Google API conflicts, so they don't work. I'm very excited to find this one plugin for all of the features, and one that is being updated and supported currently

  • So Happy to find plugin with profile elevation

    Easy to use. So Happy to find plugin with profile elevation
