Map Block for Google Maps
Version: 1.35
Description
Are you using Gutenberg and need a map? This is the map block for you! Install, active, add to content. Done! No nonsense, no unneeded settings. Simple and clear in its function – as any Gutenberg block should be.
Gutenberg is now a core feature so please update to WordPress v5, or install the Gutenberg plugin.
Plugin Features
Works as any other Gutenberg block with the following settings:
* address, or coordinates
* zoom
* map height
* API key – once saved in one block it’s used in all others
Need a non-Gutenberg map solution? Check out our free Google Maps Widget plugin.
For instruction on how to generate a Google Maps API key please read this article.
Installation
Standard stuff. Make sure you have the Gutenberg plugin installed, obviously.
Faq
Yes, yes, it’s frustrating. See detailed instructions from a similar plugin on how to get a map key.

How to fill in longitude and latitude to locate the correct location?
Easy to use

Very easy to use and simple plugin for maps
If only all WP plugins were that simple
By Miro J on August 20, 2024
This is one of the easiest plugins to use and set up. In the desire to add many features, other developers make theirs very complicated and heavy.
If you use Gutenberg (new versions of WP), this is the one to install. Period!

simply impossible to display full width
Great lightweight option

A great way to get a simple, no-frills, map block up and running in minimum time. It doesn't require jQuery as a dependency, which is a huge plus for theme developers.
Some tweaks to the admin UI/UX would be nice, hence the 4 stars, but otherwise a well made plugin.
Actually simple and good Google Maps Blocks plugin
