Features
Website visitors can add locations
Just by clicking on "Add location" a form will popup where they drop a marker and provide some location details. After submit the location is "pending" and waits for your approval to go public.
Simply drop location markers
Adding locations is as easy as dropping a location marker on a map. You can search for addresses worldwide to quickly find the right spots.
Filterable Marker Categories
Organize locations in multiple marker groups. Each group (category) can have an individual marker icon and will be accessible to visitors.
Add custom fields 🥳
Add your own custom fields (Text, Link, Checkboxes, Dropdowns, etc.) instead of using the defaults. Beside that you can customize many defaults like max. upload filesize, Text after submit, email notification, restrict to registered users, auto-publish and much more.
Extend user registration form
The "Add location" feature can be added to the native WordPress user registration. Build awesome user maps with this simple extension. See it in action here.
Gutenberg Block, Elementor Widget & Shortcodes included
The Plugin comes with a Gutenberg Block, Elementor Widget and Shortcodes so you can easily add the map or individual location details to your content. Use custom attributes to generate filtered maps with specific locations.
Beautiful Map & Marker Styles
Choose from multiple awesome map and marker styles and find the one that fits best to your website. You can also upload your own custom marker.
Email user & admin notification
Users can opt-in to get a notification email as their location has been approved and is publicly available. Admins can get notified when a new location proposal is needs to be verified.
Comprehensive settings
You can customize many defaults like max. upload filesize, Text after submit, email notification, restrict to registered users, auto-publish and much more.
Free Map Source, No API Keys!
The map is based on the awesome open-source JavaScript Library Leaflet. Unlike other plugins there are no API Keys or Access Tokens are required.
Export & Import 🥳
Maybe you already have a list of places you need to show on the map. No problem – just make use of the CSV Export & Import feature. This also comes in handy for bulk editing a lot of locations.

Use Cases
Use Case: Bar and restaurant guide
Where are the top locations for food and drinks in your city? Ask your audience for their recommendations! Prepare some categories like food, drinks, music etc. and let them drop the markers right in the frontend. Watch your map grow fast!
Use Case: Community building
Extend the WordPress user registration form with an "Add location" input. Your new users can drop a marker on the map to share their location. Use it to build an awesome user map and help your audience connecting.
Use Case: Sound map
Get your audience a soundmap. Your visitors can not only upload text and images to their locations but audio as well! This way e.g urban (or remote) areas can be discovered by its specific soundscape.
Use Case: 500+ kite & windsurfing hotspots worldwide
We thought it's about time to serve a useful map to all the surfing enthusiasts worldwide. With 500+ kite and windsurfing hotspots oranized by a handfull of regions and detailed information on most of the spots, this was an easy go. Surely this project grows and many cool features will be baked in.
DetailsNote: This use case was built with our old plugin "Locations and Areas". Now the Regional navigation (Areas) is also available in Open User Map.
Reviews
Love it
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This plugin is exactly what I need, the pro version offers me all the flexibility that I needed (2 personalized icons, automatically approved, updates to my mail, bulk import). The support is also excellent, very professional and friendly.
@tinevancorenlandNice plugin and great support
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I was searching for a plugin where users can easily add locations. This plugin is exactly offering what I was searching for. Beyond that, the support is excellent and especially very fast.
@kostenlosladencomExcellent
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The only map plugin that makes life super easy, if you want your website visitors to be able to drop a marker on a map, fill out some additional information, and have it added to your core map with approval.
@5lionsExtremely Useful Plugin & Fast Support
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I mostly like the fact that this plugin does not require an API key to work, it is easy and simple to use, essentially plug and play. Thanks to the team.
@mariaojobA great plugin and a great developer
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
A wonderful plugin that does everything I need. Easy to use and navigate, as well as to edit and customize the content. Easy for other users to add locations. All in all a good package! And what a wonderful developer! So nice and responsive, makes using the plugin trustworthy and if you run into issues, you're not alone 🙂
@leeviaroviitaBest leaflet map plugin to make a living map
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I've tried many different plugins, but most of them use google maps or some other (not free) map systems where they normaly charge you by requests/visits. Here you will need the pro version to use it properly, but you won't have any other expenses other than that. It is totaly worth the money. You will be able to make a LIVING map that it is build by the visitors.
@marty333Great plugin and great support
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I really don't leave reviews very often but this plugin is exactly what I've been looking for. The free version gives you a bundle of useful tools and the Pro version gives you additional tools to make it your own. Support is quick and easy and a bug was fixed in 24 hours (and over a weekend!). Can't fault that service.
@tom29Crystal Clear Map Plugin
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This is not another map plugin. You don't have to install complex map frameworks, authorized and payable map hits, other plugins, etc. If you want to collect data (text, images and sound files) from registered or non registered WP users this is the right plugin. You have categorized data, custom map markers, data filters, custom fields, etc all in one map page. Easy to use and very friendly. Thanks Daniel for this great plugin!
@stom1Just what I needed
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Open User Map has the exact functions I was looking to implement on my site. Easy to setup and have running right away. The developers are very helpful and working actively to update and add features and support the users in a timely fashion. Great job!
@dbark9Great plugin with great support
