Hi Roman,

Thank you for contacting us.

I apologize for the delay, as we had an unusually busy queue during the weekend.

I've checked the link that you've shared ( hidden link ) and noticed that it is already showing visitor's current location marker along with some others.

The way Toolset Map's "wpv-map-render" shortcode works, it can be either used to center map's zoom/focus automatically, so that all available markers are shown or it can be used to show a given latitude and longitude location.
( ref: https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/maps-shortcodes/ )

I'm afraid, the feature to automatically center the map based on the visitor's location (when the map loads) is not available, but, you can use a link or button generated through "map-focus-on-marker" shortcode, which will center focus the marker that is showing visitor's location on click.

You're welcome to submit new feature requests at our dedicated form:
