## Description

A Google Maps implementation for the WordPress block editor. This plugin has no 
functionality for the Classic Editor. Designed to be a feature rich implementation
for Google Maps, this plugin requires a Google Maps JavaScript API key for use.

### Features

 * Unlimited marker locations
    - Specific map center or based on marker locations
 * Unlimited style options
    - 6 standard style options
    - Use [Google’s Styling Wizard](https://mapstyle.withgoogle.com/) to generate
      your own styles
 * Simple map options for height, zoom, default UI, and scrolling
 * Align as default, wide, and full-width

## Blocks

This plugin provides 1 block.

 *   Advanced Maps Block

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/advanced-maps-block` directory,
    or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress
 3. Aquire a [Google Maps JavaScript API key](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/get-api-key)
    from the [Google Cloud Platform Console](https://cloud.google.com/console/google/maps-apis/overview).
    Ensure the API key has the “Maps JavaScript API” and the “Geocoding API” enabled.
 4. Add the “Advanced Map Block” to any page or post using the block editor. The block
    will prompt you for your API key. You will only need to add the API key once and
    will be able to add as many Advanced Maps Blocks as you need after adding the API
    key.

### 󠀁[Great plugin but has bugs](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-but-has-bugs/)󠁿

 [twobyte](https://profiles.wordpress.org/twobyte/) June 12, 2024

This plugin is useful but not yet fully compatible with the block widgets editor:
Function wp_enqueue_script() was called incorrectly. “wp-editor” script should not
be enqueued together with the new widgets editor (wp-edit-widgets or wp-customize-
widgets).  I hope you can find the time to fix this as this so far appears to be
the best google maps block plugin available.
