## Description

This plugin makes it easy to create interactive storymaps directly on your WordPress
site.
 You can define all the characteristics of your stories (title, basemap) and
their associated points (title, description, image, position, zoom level) in an 
intuitive way. Using a simple shortcode, your storymaps will automatically be displayed
on your site.

We are continuously working on new developments and features.
