Filter Map Listing by Viewport is a WP Maps Pro add-on that shows only the listing records whose markers are currently visible inside the Google Map’s viewport. As visitors pan or zoom, the list refreshes in real time so they see what’s on screen—nothing more, nothing less. It keeps dense maps clean and makes scanning faster.
How It Works
- Enable it: Edit your map → find “Filters Maps Listing By Viewport” → tick “Enable Viewport Filter” → Save.
- Front end behavior: When the user drags or zooms, the add-on detects the new bounds and updates the listing to show only markers inside the current view.
- You keep your UI: Works with your existing WP Maps Pro listing panel, search, and filters.
Key Features
- Viewport-aware listings: Results match what’s visible on the map.
- Real-time updates on pan/zoom—no extra searches needed.
- Clutter control: Hide out-of-view items to keep long lists manageable.
- Easy integration and simple backend toggle.
- Responsive and works across desktop, tablet, and mobile.
