Features

The feature list from the plugin's own readme on WordPress.org, trimmed to the essentials.

  • No need for API keys. Just install and use it
  • Support for multiple markers
  • Support for a different icon per marker
  • Support for polygons and polylines
  • Marker clustering: group nearby markers into clusters that expand as you zoom in
  • Dead-simple interface. Don’t search for coordinates and don’t get overwhelmed by too many fields when using multiple markers. Just point and click on the map…
  • Place search. Find locations by typing keywords
  • Remembers the zoom that you set when adding the markers and stores it so that you don’t set it by hand (which you can do anyway if you prefer)
  • AI integration which allows you to add markers by using commands in natural language. Just say “please” to activate (e.g. “Please, show me where GOT was…
  • Query Maps: Supports creating a map out of maps added on other posts or post types. This can be quite powerful when, for example, you have a custom post type…
  • Shortcode support: You can use the shortcode [ootb_query] as an alternative way to use the aforementioned Query Maps feature (see the FAQ for more info)
  • Support for a location custom field, which can be used to store a post’s or post type’s location, following the Geodata guidelines. Read more in the v.2.8.0…

  • It is NOT out of the box!

    Demanding Billing Address and this plugin is not Open Street map, as the title suggests.

  • Loved it!

    In 5 minutes I had a map with a marker. Easy!

  • Great plugin

    The plugin is easy to set up and use. Had some difficulty to get the map showing, but it was quickly resolved.

  • Great and Easy

    This is one hell of a nice plugin. It allows you to easily put a block on your site and add (multiple) markers. You can easily change the contents of the popup (just don't go wild) and is GDPR friendly. If that's what you need this is the plugin to go to. If you need other stuff (e. g. filters and stuff) - keep looking. But for a simple map that just works and has a easy, clean interface take this one.

  • Very nice - but only for Gutenberg

    <p>The plugin is really great.<br />Too bad it only works with the Gutenberg editor.<br />I prefer to use the Classic Editor, but there I can not use the plugin so.<br />I would have to adjust the HTML source code by hand.</p> <p>The Map is not loading, if CloudFlare Rocket Loader is active.</p>

  • Simple to use

    I have testet a lot of OSM plugins. I only needed a card with two markers. This plugin is simple. In a few minutes the card is ready.
