WP Open Street Map

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 54% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   When I first tried this plugin it appeared not to support markers. This was down to the way to use the plugin not being clear. After communication with the developers they have changed the way the plugin works and it is now much more intuitive. Brief Instructions: 1) Go to WP Openstreetmap on the WordPress menu. 2) Click “Add New Map”.3) Click on the Map Icon next to the red X.4) Use the + and – and drag the map to where you want to put a marker (Do not just click on the map) or search for an address using the search box.5) At the top of the page select the required marker. Name the marker. Add details you want to appear when you click the marker in Description (You can use html if you wish).6) Click on the map where you want the marker to be.7) Repeat from 4 to add more markers.8) Markers appear on the right hand side of the map. You can edit them here.9) Finally Use the + and – and drag the map so it shows how you will want it to show on your site. Click Save Map Settings. You are returned to the plugin front page where you can copy the shortcode to use on your site. This topic was modified 4 months ago by davidjdean.

   Pros: Works well. Chooose a map and scroll in to location. Copy a shortcode, place it. Now it shows your map. Works with newer versions of WP.Cons: What about markers? What about documentation?

   Not sure how to have a business or place selected as an option. The idea being that visitors can then instantly view details similar to google maps. Currently, just show the place and that’s it. Works fine for basics.

   Some documentation would help. I almost uninstalled because I couldn’t find where to put the pins. This topic was modified 3 years ago by klaifer. This topic was modified 3 years ago by klaifer.

   Dear Developer, I am planning to use this plugin because it’s easy to use and modify. The free extension seems to be enough for my needs. I noticed that there is a daily limit to add new markers to the map, which is fine for me. However, I have a question: is there a maximum limit to the number of markers I can add all together to one map?Thanks!
