How Do I Add a Map to WooCommerce?

Last updated on January 23, 2023 @ 7:03 am

Adding a map to your WooCommerce store is a great way to show your customers where your products are located. You can add a map to any page on your WooCommerce store, including the home page, product pages, and checkout page.

There are two ways to add a map to WooCommerce: using a plugin or manually adding the code to your theme. We’ll show you both methods so you can choose the one that’s right for you.

Method 1: Adding a Map to WooCommerce Using a Plugin

The easiest way to add a map to WooCommerce is by using a plugin. We recommend using the Google Maps for WooCommerce plugin. It’s free and easy to use.

To install the plugin:

1. Go to Plugins > Add New in your WordPress dashboard.

2. Search for “Google Maps for WooCommerce”.

3. Install and activate the plugin.

To use the plugin:

1. Go to WooCommerce > Settings in your WordPress dashboard.

2. Click on the Integration tab and scroll down to the Google Maps section.

3. Enter your Google Maps API key in the box provided.

4. Select the pages where you want to display the map.

5. Click Save Changes.

Your map will now be displayed on the selected pages of your WooCommerce store.

Method 2: Adding a Map to WooCommerce Manually

If you don’t want to use a plugin, you can add a map to WooCommerce by adding some code to your theme.

To add a map to WooCommerce:

1. Copy this code and paste it into your theme’s functions.php file:

function my_custom_map() 
{ $args = array('zoom' => 2, 'width' => 100, 'height' => 100,'cluster' => 1, );WooCommerce_get_template( 'map.php', $args ); 
} [] [] [wcp_map] [/wcp_map] [display_map] [show_on=product_page,checkout_page] [map_style=default] [cluster=1]

Paste this code in your (child) theme's functions file

function my_custom_map() 
{ $args = array( 
'zoom' => 2, 
'width' => 100, 
'height' => 100, 
'cluster' => 1, ); 
WooCommerce_get_template( 'map.php', $args ); } 

Use this shortcode in any post or page where you want to display the map

[wcp_map] [display_map],[show_on=product_page],[checkout_page],[cluster=1],[zoom=2],[width=100],[height=100], [map-style=default], 
PRO TIP: If you are using WooCommerce to sell products or services online, you may want to add a map to your site so that customers can find your business location. While adding a map to WooCommerce is fairly straightforward, there are a few things you need to keep in mind to avoid any problems.

First, make sure that you have a valid Google Maps API key. Without a key, your map will not work. Secondly, be sure to add the map to a page that is easily accessible from your WooCommerce store. The last thing you want is for customers to get lost trying to find your business!

Follow these simple tips and you should have no trouble adding a map to WooCommerce.
