WP Go Maps

Product details

Q: Does this plugin support GPX route maps that will provide an interactive route map with altitude, speed, ...

grade etc for hiking, off-road cycling etc? Similar to https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-gpx-maps/?

If so, does the shortcode (now, or planned) have an option to directly specify the GPX route file by URL so that it can be loaded from the media library, or external URL vs having to upload to a page?

Thank you!

A: Unfortunately we currently do not support automatically pulling the altitude and gradient of a location at this stage.

We do however, have a Custom Fields feature that allows you to create a "Altitude" and "Gradient" field to be used in your markers whereby you can input the respective values to be displayed.

Note that this can be used in conjunction with the Polylines feature to display points in the route displaying information about that point in the route with its altitude and gradient. Please see the second map on the following demo page to see how you can use the polylines feature with a marker at specific locations: https://www.wpgmaps.com/demo/polygons-and-polylines/

With regards to a GPX file, we do have an Import feature that does allow you to import the contents of a '.gpx' file into your map.
