## Description

Beverage Finder helps breweries, wineries, distilleries, and beverage distributors
show customers which retailers carry their products.

**Features**

 * Interactive Google Map with a sortable list of nearby locations
 * CSV import (works with Encompass sales reports or the included template)
 * Edit any location in the admin: name, address, products, and coordinates
 * Download all of your locations as a CSV
 * Brand/product filter
 * Visitor location via the browser’s built-in geolocation (no API needed)
 * Custom map pin
 * Location expiration based on last delivery date
 * Unlimited locations
 * Responsive and mobile friendly

**How it works**

Import a CSV that includes latitude and longitude for each location. Locations appear
on the map immediately. Re-importing updates delivery dates and coordinates for 
existing retailer/brand combinations instead of creating duplicates.

Need coordinates for a large address list? You can look them up yourself on Google
Maps, use any geocoding tool you like, or use the separate hosted service at [beveragefinder.net](https://beveragefinder.net),
which exports a CSV you can import here. The plugin works fully without it and does
not connect to it.

### External Services

This plugin connects to the Google Maps Platform to display the map.

**Google Maps JavaScript API** (Google LLC)

 * What it’s used for: rendering the interactive map, location markers, and the “
   your location” marker icon.
 * When data is sent: every time a visitor views a page containing the `[beverage_finder]`
   shortcode.
 * What is sent: your Maps API key, the page’s referring URL, the visitor’s IP address
   and browser details (as part of any request to Google), and the map coordinates
   being displayed.
 * Terms of Service: https://cloud.google.com/maps-platform/terms
 * Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

The visitor’s own location (if they allow it) is read by their browser and sent 
only to your WordPress site to sort results by distance.

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or install it from Plugins  
    Add New.
 2. Activate the plugin.
 3. Go to **BevFinder** in the admin menu and enter your Google Maps JavaScript API
    key.
 4. Import your locations CSV (including latitude and longitude).
 5. Add the `[beverage_finder]` shortcode to any page or post.

## FAQ

### Do I need a Google Maps API key?

Yes. The map is displayed with the Google Maps JavaScript API. Create a key in the
[Google Cloud Console](https://console.cloud.google.com), enable the Maps JavaScript
API, restrict the key to your domain, and paste it into BevFinder  Maps.

### What CSV format is required?

Use the template included in the plugin (BevFinder  Show Instructions  Download 
the CSV template). Columns, in order:

Distributor Number, Distributor Retailer ID, Retailer Name, Address, City, State,
Zip, Distributor Product Num, Supplier Product Num, Brand Name, Product Name, On/
Off Premise, Salesperson, Delivery Date, Latitude, Longitude

Rows without latitude/longitude are imported but won’t show on the map until coordinates
are added.

### How do I find latitude and longitude?

Search the address on Google Maps, right-click the pin, and click the coordinates
to copy them (for example `37.7749, -122.4194`).

### Is there a location limit?

No. Import as many locations as you like.

### How does location expiration work?

Locations whose last delivery date is older than the number of days set in **Expire
Locations After** are hidden from the map. Importing a newer delivery date shows
them again. Set the value to 0 to never expire locations.

### Can I fix a location without re-importing?

Yes. Under My Locations, search for it and click Edit. You can change the retailer
name, address, brand and product names, coordinates, and whether it shows on the
map.

The retailer name, address, and coordinates apply to every product at that location,
so you only fix a moved store once. Edited locations are marked “Edited” in the 
list, and later CSV imports won’t overwrite them — imports only refresh their delivery
date.

### What happens when I delete all locations?

All locations are removed from your map. There is no undo.

### Can I customize the map pin?

Yes. Upload an image in BevFinder  Maps (minimum 44 x 60 px).
