Toolset Maps is a WordPress plugin that allows you to add address fields to any content type or users and display any content on Google Maps.
Toolset Maps User Guides include detailed documentation for creating these special address fields, adding pointers to them and displaying them on maps.
When you ask for help or report issues, make sure to tell us the versions of the Toolset plugins that you have installed and activated.

Problem: I would like to create a map marker using an address from a custom shortcode.
Solution: When you create the map marker shortcode, choose any fixed address and insert the shortcode. Then replace the fixed address with your custom shortcode. The result will be formatted like this:
I've set up spiderfy on on my map which works nicely when clicked, can I force it to default to the spiderfy layout from the start? Otherwise users aren't going to know that there are multiple markers at one address.
Solution:
The client slightly adjusts some markers so they aren't in exactly the same location & use clustering.
Problem: I'm trying to use Layouts, WPBakery Page Builder, and the Newspaper theme together but I'm not able to get my page templates to appear as expected.
Solution: Toolset Layouts and WPBakery should not be used together, so it's best to deactivate the Layouts plugin. The Newspaper theme doesn't work out-of-the-box with Content Templates, but you can follow the steps in our Theme Support for Content Templates document to help fix that problem.

The issue here is that the user's map was not displaying any markers.
Solution:
For this user the issue was that they added their map marker shortcode outside of the view loop so there wasn't any information being provided to the map for it to display.
Problem: I would like to customize map pins (markers) so that when someone clicks a marker they are redirected to a custom URL.
Solution:
Right now there's no easy way to link to a specific URL when a marker is clicked. The easy way to handle this is to add the link inside the marker shortcode. The link will then be displayed in the marker popup. In this example I am adding a link using a URL custom field with the slug 'map-link-slug':
[wpv-map-marker map_id='map-1' marker_id='marker-[wpv-post-id]' marker_field='wpcf-location']
[types field="map-link-slug" title="Click this link..."][/types]
[/wpv-map-marker]
To customize the marker click action instead, you would need to write your own custom JavaScript. We don't offer much support for this feature because it's an advanced customization. With that being said, you can access the Map Marker objects in JavaScript at
