the language that is set in the admin panel.

  • Manage an unlimited numbers of stores.
  • Provide extra details for stores like the phone, fax, email, url, description and opening hours. There are filters available that allow you add custom meta data.
  • Support for custom map styles.
  • Choose from nine retina ready marker icons.
  • Show the driving distances in either km or miles.
  • Shortcodes that enable you to add individual opening hours, addresses or just a map with a single marker to any page.
  • Compatible with multilingual plugins like WPML and qTranslate X.
  • You can drag the marker in the editor to the exact location on the map.
  • Show the search results either underneath the map, or next to it.
  • Show Google Maps in different languages, this also influences the language for the driving directions.
  • Show the driving directions to the stores.
  • Customize the max results and search radius values that users can select.
  • Users can filter the returned results by radius, max results or category.
  • Supports marker clusters.
  • Customize map settings like the terrain type, location of the map controls and the default zoom level.
  • Use the Geolocation API to find the current location of the user and show nearby stores.

שאלות נפוצות

How do I add the store locator to a page?

Add this shortcode [wpsl] to the page where you want to display the store locator.

Oops! Something went wrong

You can fix this by setting the browser key on the settings page.

There are weird characters in the search results, how do I remove them?

This is most likely caused by a plugin like W3 Total Cache that tried to minify the HTML output on the store locator page. You can fix this by excluding the store locator from being minified on the settings page of the caching plugin you're using. In W3 Total Cache this is done by going to Minify -> Advanced -> Never minify the following pages, and fill in the page you don't want to have minified. So if your store locator is used on mydomain.com/store-locator, then fill in 'store-locator'.

Can I use different markers for category or individual store locations?

How to use custom markers is described here, you can also only use different markers for a few locations, or just for the categories.

The map doesn't display properly. It's either broken in half or doesn't load at all.

Make sure you have defined a start point for the map under settings -> Map Settings.

The map doesn't work anymore after installing the latest update

If you use a caching plugin, or a service like Cloudflare, then make sure to flush the cache.

I can't dismiss the pop up asking me to join the mailing list, how do I fix this?

There is probably a JS error in the WP Admin area that prevents the pop up from being dismissed. Try for a second to switch back to a default WP theme, disable all other plugins, and then try to dismiss the newsletter pop up again.

Why does it show the location I searched for in the wrong country?

Some location names exist in more then one country, and Google will guess which one you mean. This can be fixed by setting the correct 'Map Region' on the settings page -> API Settings.

The store locator doesn't load, it only shows the number 1?

This is most likely caused by your theme using ajax navigation ( the loading of content without reloading the page ), or a conflict with another plugin. Try to disable the ajax navigation in the theme settings, or deactivate the plugin that enables it to see if that solves the problem.

If you don't use ajax navigation, but do see the number 1 it's probably a conflict with another plugin. Try to disable the plugins one by one to see if one of them is causing a conflict.

If you find a plugin or theme that causes a conflict, please report it on the support page.

After more than one year of running the store locator on our website I can say with confidence that the plugin works perfectly fine. The free version offers A LOT. Modifications of the templates provide plenty of freedom for customization. Support is great. Now, everybody has specific ideas how a store locator should look like. The developer has to make a decision. So don't expect an all-in-one-solution that will match everybody's needs.

This is a great free plugin. You can do a ton with it out of the box and you can also customize quite a bit.

I've used this plugin for multiple sites over the last ten years. I've considered other plugins with different features but come back to WP Store Locator because it's relatively simple to configure and customize with CSS. I've been improving accessibility across multiple sites and submitted a request and received a friendly reply within a couple hours. Fernando informed me that they're working on a major new version (3.0) which may include accessibility improvements. (I specifically requested the UX setting for opening directions in a Google map to be in the same window or to include a label or icon denoting when opening in a new tab.)

The support for WPSL is second to none. Instant replies from a real human. The only feature I would love to see added is that if a user conducts a search and no store is available with thier search radius, that the results would show the nearest available stores. The number of stores shown could be configurable also. We have distibutors on the East and West cost of the US, if a customer in say, Texas, searches by thier state they don't see any results.
