## Description

PuntoMappa turns an image from your WordPress Media Library into an interactive 
map. Draw points, rectangles or polygons and give each area its own popup.

 * Draw and edit hotspots directly over your image.
 * Move areas or drag vertices to adjust the shape.
 * Add a title, plain text and a photo, or link an existing published post.
 * Linked posts display their featured image, excerpt and a link to the full article.
 * Choose a popup position for each hotspot: any corner, map center or near the 
   area.
 * Open by click or hover. Hover previews close after leaving the area or popup;
   clicking keeps them open.
 * Long content scrolls. On phones, popups appear below the image and open by tap.
 * Hotspot coordinates follow the image as it resizes.
 * Embed with [puntomappa id=”123″] in the Shortcode block.
 * Translation-ready interface, with language packs managed through translate.wordpress.
   org.

No account, subscription, tracking or third-party service is required. Map data 
is stored in your WordPress database and images remain in your Media Library.

## Installation

 1. Upload the puntomappa folder to /wp-content/plugins/, or upload the ZIP through
    Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin.
 2. Activate PuntoMappa.
 3. Go to PuntoMappa > Add map, give it a title and choose an image.
 4. Select Point, Rectangle or Polygon and draw an area. Fill in its content in the
    side panel.
 5. Publish and copy its shortcode into a Shortcode block on any page or post.

## FAQ

### Which image formats are supported?

Formats accepted by your WordPress installation and supported by the browser. PuntoMappa
does not enable SVG uploads or bypass WordPress upload restrictions. PDF and design
source files must first be converted to an image.

### Can I use an existing post?

Yes. Set the source to Existing post, search for a published post and select it.
Private, draft and inaccessible password-protected posts are not displayed to visitors.

### Can I edit areas or replace the image?

Use Select to drag an area or its handles. Replacing the background preserves proportional
coordinates: review your areas after choosing a different image.

### How does hover work?

Leaving the area starts a 300 ms closing delay. Entering the popup or returning 
to the hotspot cancels it. Click, tap, keyboard activation or focusing a popup control
keeps the popup open until dismissed.

### Can I choose popup positions?

Each hotspot supports four corners, map center or placement near the hotspot. Placement
adapts to available space. On phones, the popup appears below the image.

### Are there limits?

Up to 300 hotspots per map and 200 vertices per polygon. Custom text is plain text
with paragraphs preserved. Zoom, map panning and a dedicated block are not included
in this version.

### What happens when I uninstall?

Maps and images are retained to avoid accidental data loss. Reactivating restores
access to your maps.

### How can I report a problem?

Use the author’s website linked from https://profiles.wordpress.org/leviath/. Include
plugin, WordPress and PHP versions, reproduction steps and error messages. Do not
share passwords or private data.
