It requires no third-party plugins( no ACF needed) and works with any properly coded WordPress theme. **Features:** * Interactive map powered by Leaflet (bundled) and OpenStreetMap — completely free, no API key required * Country filter dropdown with store count per country * State / region filter — dynamically populated based on selected country * Optional city filter * The list follows the map — it shows the stores in the visible area, with a result counter, so large cities stay manageable * Search bar — filter stores by name, city, address or postcode * “Use my location” button — sorts stores by distance, and only asks for the location after the visitor clicks * “Get Directions” link, phone and opening hours for every store * Marker clustering for maps with many stores * Infinite scroll for large store lists (loads in batches of 20) * CSV import (up to 500 rows per upload, updates existing stores instead of duplicating them) and CSV export * Coordinates lookup from the store address in the admin * Two integration methods: shortcode and Gutenberg block * Fully responsive — works on all screen sizes * Contained or full-width layout option **Privacy note:** Map tiles are loaded from tile.openstreetmap.org. The visitor’s location is only read when they click “Use my location”, and it is sent only to your own site to sort stores by distance. See the External services and Privacy sections for details. ### Third-Party Libraries This plugin bundles the following third-party libraries in minified form: * **Leaflet** (v1.9.4) — BSD 2-Clause License Non-minified source: https://github. com/Leaflet/Leaflet * **Leaflet.markercluster** (v1.5.3) — MIT License Non-minified source: https:// github.com/Leaflet/Leaflet.markercluster ### External services This plugin relies on the following third-party services. None of them receives any data until the action described happens. #### OpenStreetMap tiles The map images are loaded from OpenStreetMap servers (tile.openstreetmap.org) every time a page containing the store locator is displayed. The visitor’s IP address and the map area being viewed are sent to OpenStreetMap as part of those requests. Terms of use: https://operations.osmfoundation.org/policies/tiles/ Privacy policy: https://osmfoundation.org/wiki/Privacy_Policy #### OpenStreetMap Nominatim Used only in the WordPress admin. When an editor clicks “Get coordinates from address” while editing a store, the address typed in the form is sent to the Nominatim search service (nominatim.openstreetmap.org) to obtain its latitude and longitude. Site visitors never contact this service. Terms of use: https://operations.osmfoundation. org/policies/nominatim/ Privacy policy: https://osmfoundation.org/wiki/Privacy_Policy #### Google Maps Each store shows a “Get Directions” link that opens Google Maps (google.com/maps) in a new tab with the coordinates of the store. Nothing is sent to Google unless the visitor clicks the link. Terms of use: https://www.google.com/intl/en/help/ terms_maps/ Privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy ### Privacy The plugin never asks for the visitor’s location on page load. If the visitor clicks“ Use my location”, the browser coordinates are sent to your own site’s REST API to sort stores by distance. They are not stored and are not sent to any third party. The button can be disabled in the settings. If you use this plugin, you should disclose the services listed under “External services” in your site’s privacy policy. ## Screenshots [⌊Adding a store: address, contact details and opening hours.⌉⌊Adding a store: address, contact details and opening hours.⌉[ Adding a store: address, contact details and opening hours.

Upload the `bloom-desktop-store-locator` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory, or install directly through the WordPress plugin screen. 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** screen in WordPress. 3. Go to **Store Locator Settings** to configure global settings. 4.

The plugin is completely theme-independent and uses its own styles prefixed with `bloom-desktop-`. ### Do I need Advanced Custom Fields (ACF)? No. The plugin uses native WordPress metaboxes and has no third-party plugin dependencies. ### How many stores can I add? There is no hard limit. The store list loads in batches as the visitor scrolls, the map groups nearby markers, and the list can follow the visible map area so large catalogues stay manageable. ### Does it work with page builders? Yes. Use the `[bloom_desktop_store_locator]` shortcode in Elementor, Divi, WPBakery, or any other page builder. ### Can I show different countries on different pages? Yes. Use one Store Locator per page. Each block has its own Title, Description, Country, “Only show stores from this country” and Footer text (the shortcode has` title`, `description`, `default_country`, `lock_country="1"` and `footer`), so one page can be “Our stores in Spain” and another “Our stores in the United Kingdom”. Texts left empty use the ones from the plugin settings. ### Is the map service free? Yes. The plugin uses Leaflet (open source) and OpenStreetMap tiles (free). No API key is required. ### How do I find the latitude and longitude for a store? Fill in the store address and click **Get coordinates from address** in the Map Location metabox. The plugin looks the address up with OpenStreetMap and fills in both fields. You can also type the coordinates by hand. ### How does the CSV import work? Go to **Store Locator Settings Import & Export**. Upload a CSV with the following columns: Required: `title`, `latitude`, `longitude`, `country` Optional: `address`, `city`,` state`, `zipcode`, `phone`, `website`, `hours` A row whose title and coordinates match an existing store updates that store instead of creating a duplicate. A sample CSV is available to download from the same page, and **Export CSV** downloads all your stores in the same format. ### What happens to my stores if I delete the plugin? Nothing, unless you enable **Delete all stores and settings when the plugin is deleted** in the settings. Deactivating the plugin never deletes data. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/f54912cc76b8429d84438f0e9e4ff7601c932b74aa53c78ad87c0316b05d8b12? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Excelent plugin!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/excelent-plugin-580/)󠁿 [juliancdev](https://profiles.wordpress.org/juliancdev/) November 2, 2026 Do the job!
