This section will describe each of these in more detail and when they are used. * **OpenLayers:** Served from a local library file (lib/ol.js & lib/ol.css), provided by OpenLayers. We use this library when you set your block to use OpenLayers ( default). You can find the source files on the [OpenLayers GitHub](https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers). * **OpenStreetMap:** When you select the OpenLayers engine, a default map tile server is used, which is provided by [OpenStreetMap](https://www.openstreetmap.org/). This is a **3rd party service provider** that we rely on to render your map. They may also make use of [MapBox](https://www.mapbox.com/) for some of their assets. * **Google Maps API:** If you decide to use [Google Maps](https://developers.google.com/maps) as your map engine, we will include the Google Maps API as a **3rd party service provider** that we rely on to render your maps. In this case, admin map previews are still rendered by OpenLayers and OpenStreetMap. * **Nominatim (OpenStreetMap):** If you perform an address search within the admin area, we will make use of the [OpenStreetMap Nominatim](https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org) to lookup locations and suggest addresses to you. This is a **3rd party service provider** that we rely on for address searches. ## Screenshots * [[ * Block editor preview * [[ * Block settings overview * [[ * Location settings * [[ * Map settings * [[ * General Settings * [[ * Settings overview with full plugin ## Blocks This plugin provides 1 block. * Map Block The easiest-to-use Google Maps plugin is now available as a standalone block!

And I’ve had some great support from Matthew Lau. No issues with the plugin but just me trying to do things which aren’t( yet) fully supported. Matthew has given me bespoke support with some little code snippets. Excellent service! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/583d8464871b6fd924e18686361eaa59a53356c1d2518f90a8be8005ba61b1fe? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Solid](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/solid-170/)󠁿 [sesentner](https://profiles.wordpress.org/sesentner/) 21, Ochobre de 2024 This is a solid map plugin.
