GeoDirectory Custom Map Styles

Maps on a directory site can use different colors and visual styles from the rest of the site. GeoDirectory Custom Map Styles gives site owners controls for changing map appearance to suit their branding and the information they want to show. For Google Maps, the plugin lets you adjust individual layers, including roads, water, parks, and railways. You can also set separate styles for detailed location maps and category overview maps.

The plugin supports Google Maps and Open Street Maps. Google Maps styles can be adjusted with settings such as color codes, hue, gamma, saturation, lightness, and weight. For Open Street Maps, choose from preset styles or enter API details for premium layers such as Open Cycle Maps. You can also import styles from Snazzy Maps and personalize them for maps across a GeoDirectory site.
