Directorist – Listings with Map

Directorist – Listings with Map is an official extension of the popular Directorist directory plugin, designed to display your website's listings on an interactive real-time map. This tool is intended for owners of local directory sites, real estate portals, restaurant guides, hotel directories, travel platforms, and any business that needs to present its listings in a visual and geolocated way.

The extension introduces a map-based page layout where listings appear alongside a dynamic cartographic interface. Typically, listings and search filters are shown on the left side of the page, while the map with location markers occupies the right side. This arrangement allows visitors to explore listings while simultaneously viewing their geographic location, significantly improving the browsing and business discovery experience.

Directorist – Listings with Map is compatible with map providers such as Google Maps and OpenStreetMap. Site administrators can choose their preferred provider and configure map settings directly from the WordPress dashboard, including zoom level, initial location, and overall map behavior.

One of the standout features is the automatic synchronization between search results and map markers. When users apply search filters or browse categories, the map updates instantly to show only relevant locations. This interactive connection between listings and the map helps users discover businesses based on geographic proximity, which is especially valuable for local directories and location-based services.

Additionally, the extension offers multiple layout options for directory pages. Administrators can display listings and the map in two- or three-column layouts, adapting to the aesthetics and structure of each website. Listings can be displayed on directory pages, search results, category pages, and location pages.

This tool is ideal for those looking to improve the usability of their directory and offer visitors a more intuitive way to find businesses, services, or properties. With its flexible configuration and native integration with Directorist, Listings with Map turns any directory into a top-tier visual and geographic search experience.
