• An Action ? You can set up diferent kinds of action for when the user clicks in an active area. You can make a new URL open, or simply display a message. Advanced users will be able to create their own Javascript functions for customized actions, like opening information with a lightbox effect.

Customizable

You will be able to costumize the visual of your maps:

• Background color;
• Box border width and color;
• Inactive regions color;
• Individual colors for each active region;
• Markers size;
• Width and Height of the map;

Add the Maps anywhere on your website

You can use a shortcode to include the maps in posts, pages and even in sidebar widgets! You can also add the maps to your template, with a simple php function.

Responsive

If no width is specified it will load with the maximum width available in the container div. For example, it will load and adapt with different sizes for phones/ipads/laptops. However, after loaded it will not change size if you resize the window.

Since version 1.4 the plugin includes an option to make the maps fully Responsive. This will use jQuery to check if the window size changed and will redraw the map with the new available space. RESPONSIVE INTERACTIVE MAP EXAMPLE

Cross device and browser compatible

The maps are built in SVG, no flash is used and therefore they will display in Mac products.

CSS Hacks made easy

There a few features that the Google Geochart API doesn’t provide by default, but the plugin provides a ‘Custom CSS Generator’ to help implement some features like hover colour change effect, implement font icons as markers, change border colour, among others.
