PlacePress is a WordPress plugin designed for public historians, urbanists, and other humanities researchers. It’s easy to document locations such as historic sites using the PlacePress block editor to add your site to a global map, allowing you to focus on creating content.
This is the PlacePress Global Map. You can add it to any page. It automatically displays all your geolocated content on an interactive map. Simply create a post using the PlacePress Locations custom post type, add the Location Map block, and the Global Map will update automatically. Each marker on the map uses the featured Location Image in the popup container. Maps can be configured with marker clustering, alternate basemap styles, captions, and default zoom levels, with more features planned for the future.
