Tell us what you are trying to do? I would like to be able to import .gpx files for display on maps

Is there any documentation that you are following? No, I have searched forums

Is there a similar example that we can see? No

Hi,

Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.

I'm afraid, the Toolset Maps plugin doesn't support showing map data from the .gpx or .kml files.

To make this work, you have the following options:

1. You can hire a professional ( ref: https://toolset.com/contractors/ ) to help you with the custom import of .gpx or .kml files data into Toolset's address type custom fields, which can then be shown on the map.

2. You can use a third-party maps plugin like "Leaflet Map" ( ref: https://wordpress.org/plugins/leaflet-map/ ) that supports the map's data from external sources or files.

regards,
Waqar
