Create custom interactive maps with free Leaflet-based styles, no Google Maps API key, frontend marker submissions, search and filters.

== Description ==

Open User Map is a flexible map plugin for creating custom maps, community maps, directories, store locators and location-based projects.

You can add your own markers — or let website visitors submit new markers directly from the frontend. New submissions can wait for your approval before they appear on the map, so you stay in full control.

No Google Maps API key is required. Open User Map is based on [Leaflet Map JS](https://leafletjs.com/) and includes free OpenStreetMap and MapBox based map styles, marker styles, address search and flexible embed options for Gutenberg, Elementor and shortcodes.

= 👩🏾‍🚀🤵👩🏻‍🎤👩🏽‍🌾👩🏿‍💻 How to create an Interactive Map =

Create a community map where visitors can add new markers directly from the frontend. You can receive a notification for new submissions and approve each location before it is published.

Your visitors can search for addresses or existing markers worldwide to quickly find the right spot. You can add custom fields and descriptions to the submission form to collect the data you need. Image, video and audio uploads are possible as well.

Let your users collaborate and watch your map grow.
