    About this demo

    What you’re looking at

    1. Search by address or ZIP code. The search is geocoded by Google and results are sorted by distance, with directions from the searched address.
    2. The list and map stay in sync. Select a result to open its marker, or a marker to jump to its result.
    3. Ordinary WordPress content. The 34 parks are posts in the plugin’s built-in Locations post type, geocoded automatically when saved.
    4. The Modern style preset. One setting, plus an accent color, corner style and list position. No CSS needed. Switch to Classic above to compare it with the original look.
    5. Filters that answer instantly. City, postal code and category filters run in the browser with no extra requests, and options with no matching parks are disabled. Filters can use any taxonomy, as a select, radio buttons or checkboxes.

    Features

    Everything in every license

    Single Site, Multi Site and Unlimited licenses all get the full plugin. They only differ in how many sites you can activate.

    Data

    Your data, your way

    Use the built-in Locations post type, map the address fields of a post type you already have (ACF Google Map fields are detected automatically), or load JSON, XML or KML files, local or remote.

    Import

    Bulk import

    Import a CSV from the dashboard, or script it with the wp cardinal-locator import WP-CLI command. Locations without coordinates are geocoded in the background.

    Search

    Search & filters

    Address and ZIP search sorted by distance, name search and maximum distance. Filter by category, any custom taxonomy, city, state, postal code or country, as selects, radios or checkboxes.

    Display

    Map & list options

    Cloud map styling with a Map ID, Advanced Markers, marker images per category, inline directions, pagination, featured locations, a modal layout, and miles or kilometers.

    Scale

    Built for big datasets

    A dedicated mode for 1,000+ locations queries a REST endpoint and a custom coordinates table instead of loading everything into the page.
