!! IMPORTANT !!
The WordPress Plugin Review Team required us to provide opt-in feature to display attribution since it is part of WordPress Plugin Guidelines. So you have to enable the checkbox “Display attribution (credit) in the map.” at the WP OSM Plugin Shortcode generater or add the attribution manually to your map. Otherwise it may violate the map or data license, eg OpenStreetMap.

This plugin enables GPX and KML upload!

Licenses of the maps:
* OpenStreetMap: OpenStreetMap License
* OpenTopoMap: OpenTopoMap License
* Stamen Maps: Stamen License
* BaseMap: BaseMap License
* Thunderforest (API key): Thunderforest License
* Others: Depends on the map you are including – check it before including it!

Installation

  1. Upload OSM folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
  3. Generate the OSM shortcode when you write your post / page

IMPORTANT:
Personal data (eg. gpx files) must not be stored in the plugins/osm folder but in the upload folder!
