Mapster WP Maps

Description

Mapster’s on a mission! With Mapster WP Maps, we’re trying to make the best map editor and creator available for WordPress. So many of the existing plugins out there are outdated, difficult to use, and, worst of all, hide really basic features behind a paywall.

Check out Mapster WP Maps Pro for much more advanced features such as mass editing, huge imports, store locators, hover styling, and more.

With WordPress Maps, we currently integrate MapLibre (the open source Mapbox), Mapbox, and Google Maps.

Learn more about the plugin, get started, and check out the documentation at https://wpmaps.mapster.me/.

We also have a site full of examples at https://wpmaps.mapster.me/examples/!

You can use this plugin with or without access tokens and API keys, however you need.

A few features across different map types include:

  • Live map editor as you change and edit your map
  • Ability to add circles, markers, text, lines, polygons, and popups to your maps, and style them in many ways
  • Unlimited number of maps, unlimited features and markers
  • Control over map size, display, controls on the map, interactivity, and more
  • Integration of location searches, directions plugins, and more to come

We have a feature request forum open where you can feel free to submit feature requests and we will prioritize and respond to these.

This plugin effectively replaces our previous WP Mapbox GL JS plugin, which was a bit old and difficult to develop. This new plugin is much simpler to use and allows much more efficient development and bug fixing.

We have some FAQs and instructions up at https://wpmaps.mapster.me/, with more coming in the coming months! Please hit us up with any feature requests or bugs that you run into.

Love,

Your Friends at Mapster

The Mapster app is fantastic. Has a amazing functionality out of the gate and if you need additional features the Mapster team is quick and responsive. Thankful I have the app!

For a long while, I carried around the idea to add a map to my photo-homepage, but the whole topic felt quite overwhelming. Victor Temprano's YouTube tutorials on the issue where a great help, and I was very happy to find out that he and his Mapster team also offer a (free!) Wordpress plugin. I like it a lot, it's powerful, logical, and it's UI doesn't get into the way of achieving what you want. What I am amazed with most though is the kind, supportive spirit in which Mapster/Victor is doing their business/service. It feels great to deal with actual people who share my love for detail (or very much surpass it when it comes to maps ;)). I don't have a business (yet), but would definitely start here to look for solutions!

Respect for creating this, doesn't seem to be anything else out there quite like it for embedding Mapbox in Wordpress and especially Divi theme Mapbox embeds. Will report back :]

I've been looking for and working with mapping software for a while now, including ArcGIS. Now I've found the replacement for my ArcGIS developer subscription.

I use Mapster WP Maps on the project website the-planets dot app , in the new Globe view provided by Mapbox. It looks awesome. It is a pleasure to work with this plugin and fantastic how well Victor, the developer, responds to support queries and help requests. A 5-star rating, well deserved.
