Interactive World Maps 2.5
Description
Interactive World Maps is a WordPress plugin for building unlimited interactive maps with colored regions and clickable markers. It helps you turn geographic content—continents, countries, and US states—into a more engaging experience by adding hover tooltips and on-click actions. Instead of static images, you can present regional data in a visual format that supports exploration and clearer storytelling. The plugin is fully compatible with the brand new WordPress v.5 and focuses on flexible customization for colors, sizes, and layouts.
With built-in map sets for the world, major regions, virtually all countries, and detailed US state and metro-area views, it’s suitable for regional analytics, event coverage, and location-based navigation. You can highlight areas as complete regions or add marker bubbles where you need more precision.
