Site administrators can set parameters for both Single Member maps and the All Members Map via wp-admin > Settings > BP Maps – Members.

Member Maps Admin Screen
The All Members Map has 2 available filters. See their settings above.

Display Filters
The filter options allow your members will have the option to filter the members displayed on the map. If they use Distance filter they can start typing an address and then select an address provided by Google Maps to be used as the center point and select the distance from that address. The filters will appear directly above the All Members Map.

All the templates can be overloaded to your theme or child-theme so that you can adjust the layouts if desired.

This plugin requires our free plugin BP xProfile Location. It creates an xprofile location field type that will be used in this plugin.

So if a Member has an address in their profile fields a Location tab will appear and will link to the Map for that Member.

Map for a Single Member
A Map tab is added to the Members Directory. Clicking a map marker will open an info box that includes a link to that Member.

Just wanted to say added your free plugin followed the instructions all worked first time.
Really impressed so much I bought the Maps plugin you provide and again all worked first time.
But top marks excellent – so rare for things to “just work”!
How can I add the map to the front page?
There is a shortcode that you can use on any page: [membersmap]
Thanks for adding the filter by location feature – it’s great!
You’re welcome.
Is there a way to use LAT/LON in the location field? Just like: 46.776110 15.513891
No you must start typing an address and then select from the choices provided by Google Maps.
Hi thanks for this plugin. As previously said works great right out of the box! I’m wondering if it’s possible to import locations and have them show up on a map automatically. Right now I can import the text of the location (“Las Vegas NV USA”) but it doesn’t show up on the members map until I go through the profile and click Submit. Any ideas? Thanks in advance for any insight!
No you must follow those steps. That is how Google responds with the geo-coordinates for a location.
Great plugins! It does what I expect Is there a way to view the result of search members (via BP Profile Search) directly in the map instead of the directory members first ?
This plugin now supports filtering by: Location + Distance Member Type and Keywords.
As of Version 6.0 of this plugin the BP Profile Search plugin can be used to filter members on the map.
Hi Thanks for great plugin. Is it possible to add more info on the pins in the map? (Crucial) And is it possible to remove the Buddyboss filter next to the members map while still keeping it on “All members”? As of now I have two different filters and the Buddyboss filter does not affect the map filtering so would wish to remove it. Or is it possible to do something so that the Buddyboss filtering would work on the map? (Would be perfect).
To add data to a pin you will have write some code. For an example please see this file which is included in the plugin: readme-add-popup-field.txt There is a separate template for the pins: bp-maps-for-members\templates\members\members-map-item.php
Re BuddyBoss: we do not know why you are seeing their filter on our Maps page – we did not include it in that template. Perhaps you are using their BuddyPress Global Search plugin. In which case we do not provide support for it.
For a fully integrated Member search on profile fields we recommend BP Profile Search which takes a little effort to setup but will work on both the Members listing page and the Map page and reflect the search parameters on either page. Please see the FAQs in the readme.txt for the BP Maps for Members plugin.
I ran into an issue with buddyboss and the latest update. These guys responded quickly helped me troubleshoot and even sent me an updated copy of bp maps for members to solve my particular issue. A+++ support!
Is there a solution for the dropdown selector to filter by Members type’s name and not their slug ?
Thanks for bringing this to our attention. The issue has been fixed in Version 6.8
Hi! Just a quick few questions about this plugin. Can members just enter their city state etc or do they need to enter a full address? When the map feature is being used by members will it show the st’s people live on etc? I would rather not have this level of detail. Only suburb/ city / state and country. Is this possible?
If a member enters a full address then that address will be used on the map. Or they can only enter a city or a state and the marker will be placed in that general location. Either way they must select from the options that Google Maps returns.
We have customized our profile address fields. We have 3 address fields available for each member profile. Will this plugin pick up all three locations?
It will only find locations (addresses) that were added via the BP xProfile Location plugin. The plugin options allows you to pick a single location field for display on the map. So if you have an address field called “Business” and you select that field in the settings then the All Members Map will display all members who have filled out that field.
Is there a way to change the markers? I mean the design of the markers (e.g. color). What if two or more people both only enter for example “San Francisco CA”? How will people be able to click on their profile link?
You can replace the marker icons by following the directions in the readme.txt.
If 2 or more markers have the same geocode they will be separated slightly so that all markers are visible.
I’m looking to filter buddypress members on a map less than 100 km from the connected member and only on certain roles. This seems to be possible with your plugin which is inserted on certain themes. 1. I already have a site with the autocomplete address plugin. Is your plugin compatible with “Location Autocomplete for BuddyPress”? 2. Is there a discount for annual renewal?
1. This plugin requires the free BP xProfile Location plugin. The Location Autocomplete for BuddyPress plugin does not gather geo-coordinates which are needed for maps. 2. All our plugins have a 30% discount for annual renewals. Without a renewal the plugins will continue to work but you will not have access to updates.
HI ok thanks for the quick response but I have a membership base of several thousand members. Do you know how to make conversions? otherwise difficult for this site. Regards
You could probably write a script to submit the addresses to google and then gather the required geo-coordinates but we do not offer that service.
The location map of my members is displayed on chrome however not on internet explorer.
Microsoft officially ended support for the IE browser last year. Therefore we no longer support the IE browser. We have tested our plugin with the Microsoft Edge browser without any issues.
When I have many members in one area there is a blue dot with a number but I can’t see who those people are. Is there a way to show the members listed with the map?
Click on the “blue dot” and it should open up and show all the members in that area. You may need to increase the Zoom value in the settings for the plugin.
Hi. I have 2 questions 1. I would like to show in a map all members in that region. As far as I know this is straightforward. My question is if I move or zoom the map is the map updated with members that were not in the not-zoomed map?
2. Is possible to show pins in the map with different colors de pending on a field? For example depending on gender or status or whatever?
When the map is shown all members will be visible. If you zoom in only members in that area will be visible.
Different pins based on a field is not available at this time but will be considered for some future release.
Does this plugin have the feature to show me in a widget members close to my location?
If you mean geolocation from a mobile device – no it does not. If you mean the location you entered on your profile then there is a distance filter available but not in a widget.
I need to know whether the cost for renewing the plugin license key is the same with the purchase cost.
For license renewals all of our premium plugins apply a 25% discount to the original purchase price.
