Having multiple physical locations for your business makes it easier for customers to find the nearest store or service center. Showing all your locations on a single Google Map embedded in WordPress gives visitors a clear, visual way to find you without having to search separately.
The Google Map block in Nexter Blocks lets you add as many location pins as you need to a single map, each with its own coordinates, tooltip label, and custom marker. A similar Google Maps feature is also available in The Plus Addons for Elementor for Elementor users.

Best Used For:
- Franchise businesses, retail chains, or restaurant groups listing all branch locations on one map
- Service businesses displaying multiple city or regional offices for visitors to find the nearest one
- Real estate agencies or event organizers pinning multiple property or venue locations in WordPress
Requirement: This block is part of Nexter Blocks. Make sure it is installed and activated to use this feature. You also need a Google Maps API key to display the map. See How to Generate a Google Maps API Key for setup instructions.
To add multiple locations to the Google Map block, add the block to your page and follow these steps:
- In the block settings panel, go to Content > Pins.
- In the first pin item, enter the Latitude and Longitude for your first location.
- In the Tooltip Content field, add a label that appears when a visitor hovers over the pin, such as the branch name or address.
- To replace the default pin icon with a custom image, upload an image in the Custom Marker field. For full marker customization options, see How to Add Custom Markers in Google Maps in WordPress.
- Click + Add Pin to add the next location. Enter the Latitude, Longitude, and Tooltip Content for each new pin and repeat for every additional location you need.
Note: If some pins are not visible because your locations are spread far apart, go to the Map Zoom setting in the Content tab and reduce the zoom level until all pins appear on the map at once.
If you want to display additional information when a visitor clicks a location pin, such as opening hours, a phone number, or a directions link, pair the Google Map block with the Popup Builder block in WordPress to open a popup with that content on click.
