The most comprehensive & easy-to-use maps plugin for WordPress

== Description ==
We are working hard on delivering the best mapping solution available – helping you to share your favorite spots and tracks.

Display locations and directions on your WordPress site. Organize customized icons in tidy layers on a variety of maps. Maps Marker Pro is your individual Geo-CMS that features highest security standards and a moral code.

With Maps Marker Pro, you can

* pin your favorites places with **markers**,
* search for locations by using geocoding providers like LocationIQ, MapQuest, tomtom or Google Places,
* show **directions** for your locations,
* choose from over **1000 free, customizable icons** from [Maps Icons Collection](https://mapicons.mapsmarker.com),
* add **popup description text or images** for each marker,
* organize your markers using **filters**,
* choose an **individual basemap, size and zoom level** for each map
* display your maps by just adding a **shortcode** - e.g. [mapsmarker map="1"] - to posts, pages, widgets and templates
* on the basemap of your choice: **Open Street Map** (OSM default, DE, France, HOT, Stamen, OpenTopoMap), **Google Maps** (road, satellite, hybrid, terrain), **Bing** (road, aerial, aerials + labels, canvas light/dark/gray), **Here maps** (normal day/night, terrain, satellite, hybrid), **tomtom maps** (day, night), **ESRI maps** (streets, topographic, national geographic, gray, dark gray, oceans, imagery) and any **custom raster tile or WMS map**
