<p>Using the MapBox plugin you can quickly and easily embed maps from MapBox Hosting into your site. MapBox hosting is an easy-to-use service for hosting maps. Whether you design custom maps in <a href="http://mapbox.com/tilemill/" rel="nofollow ugc">TileMill</a> or use the existing layers in our tileset library, MapBox makes it easy get maps onto your site.</p>
<ol>
<li>Visit <a href="http://tiles.mapbox.com" rel="nofollow ugc">tiles.mapbox.com</a> and find the map you want to embed.</li>
<li>When viewing the map click the “Embed” button. It’s in the bottom right corner of the map.</li>
<li>Adjust the height and width of the map in the popup.</li>
<li>When you’re happy with the map, copy the ’embed code’. It begins with “<iframe”.</li>
<li>On your WordPress site add a new post, or edit an existing one.</li>
<li>Switch the editor to “HTML” and paste the embed code where you’d like the map.</li>
<li>Save, then view your post and enjoy the map!</li>
</ol>
<p>You may notice that the MapBox plugin converts the embed code into a WordPress <a href="http://en.support.wordpress.com/shortcodes/" rel="nofollow ugc">shortcode</a>. The <code>mapbox</code> shortcode can take several options, all of which are optional. The order doesn’t matter at all.</p>
<ul>
<li><code>layers</code> – a comma seperated list of layers. The format of each layer is <code>{account}.{layer}</code>.</li>
<li><code>width</code> – the desired width of the map, in pixels.</li>
<li><code>height</code> – the desired height of the map, in pixels.</li>
<li><code>lat</code> – The latitude where the map should be centered.</li>
<li><code>lon</code> – The longitude where the map should be centered.</li>
<li><code>z</code> – The ‘zoom level’ of the map. Zoom level ’12’ is a street level view, ‘1’ is the view from the moon.</li>
<li><code>options</code> – Controls and other options, a comma seperated list.</li>
</ul>

HTML5 Maps

This is a well-executed plugin. However, the maps that are provided in the free version are really not those that any user would want to use. 

Continents and regions are available at the free level, but individual countries, US States, or individual counties within states are what you'd really want to be interactive. And these are not available in the free version.

I'm all for supporting the work of developers and I invest in premium plugins regularly. Unfortunately, the pro version of this plugin is priced very high. It's a shame, this could be a very map solution.

A heavily crippled free version and expensive pro version

Nice looking interactive responsive and mobile-friendly HTML5 Maps incl. US, World and more, with an option to customize view and behavior of the maps
