Hi Waqar!
I want to know if it is possible to create a map with Toolset Maps to have a dynamic map of the location of our registered users
Hi,
Thank you for waiting and here are the steps to create a user view that shows each user's location on the map:
1. For this example, suppose that there are two single-line user fields for the city (user-city) and the country (user-country) and you'd like to show a list of all users with the "subscriber" role.
2. From WP Admin -> Toolset -> Views, please create a new view and set it to show the users with the subscriber role.

3. In the "Loop Editor" section, you'll include the shortcode for the map, map marker, and for any fields, that you'd like to show:

For example:
[wpv-layout-start]
[wpv-items-found]
[wpv-map-render map_id="map-1"][/wpv-map-render]
<!-- wpv-loop-start -->
<ol class="wpv-loop js-wpv-loop">
<wpv-loop>
<li>
Name: [wpv-user field="display_name"]<br>
City: [types usermeta="user-city"][/types]<br>
Country: [types usermeta="user-country"][/types]
[wpv-map-marker map_id='map-1' marker_id='marker-2' address='[types usermeta="user-city"][/types], [types usermeta="user-country"][/types]'][/wpv-map-marker]
<hr>
</li>
</wpv-loop>
</ol>
<!-- wpv-loop-end -->
[/wpv-items-found]
[wpv-no-items-found]
<strong>[wpml-string context="wpv-views"]No items found[/wpml-string]</strong>
[/wpv-no-items-found]
[wpv-layout-end]
Please note how I've used the values from the user's city and the country fields to pass on the "address" attribute value, in the "wpv-map-marker" shortcode:
https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/maps/maps-shortcodes/#wpv-map-marker
4. After that, you can insert this newly created view on your page, using the shortcode:
( ref: https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/views/views-shortcodes/#wpv-view )
[wpv-view name="user-view"]
And this is how the view shows on the front-end:

I hope this helps and please let me know if you need any further assistance around this.

Waqar
