JSON Data on Google Maps is a WP Maps Pro add-on that turns a JSON file into interactive markers and listings on your map. Upload your JSON, map its fields to the marker title, content, and images, and the add-on renders everything on the map and in the listing panel. It is responsive and built to work cleanly with WP Maps Pro’s UI.
How It Works
- Open the mapping tool: Go to
WP MAPS PRO → JSON File To Map
. - Pick a map and upload JSON: Select your target map, then upload the JSON file.
- Map fields: Choose which JSON keys become Title, Latitude, Longitude, and optionally description, images, categories, or extra fields. (Title, lat, lng are required.)
- Enable on the map: Edit the map and turn on Enable JSON Locations under “JSON To Google Maps (Addon Settings),” then save.
- View results: Your JSON records appear as markers with matching listing cards and infowindows.
Key Features
- Upload and map JSON quickly with a simple backend screen.
- Full control of display: Decide what shows in the listing and infowindow using your JSON keys.
- Supports various sources: The add-on accepts JSON from different sources, then standardizes output on the map.
- Works with WP Maps Pro listings, filters, and skins so the map feels native to your site.
- Responsive and admin-friendly with a focus on fast setup.
