Map Block for Google Maps

by WebFactory

Version: 1.35

Download
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.

Standard stuff. Make sure you have the Gutenberg plugin installed, obviously.

Google Maps API key … grrrr … what where how!?

Yes, yes, it’s frustrating. See detailed instructions from a similar plugin on how to get a map key.

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

simply impossible to display full width

Great lightweight option

By verism on January 19, 2023

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

By rogermarley on November 6, 2022

Actually just got on with being a google maps block plugin, making it dead simple to insert map blocks, unlike all the other overengineered overly complicated maps plugins.

Perfect
