This plugin adds a dynamic, location-aware map to a website, allowing visitors to find and explore nearby points of interest. It is designed for site owners who need to provide local search functionality, such as for business directories, travel sites, or community portals. The tool integrates directly with the Progress Map plugin to extend its core mapping features.

• Live Google Maps Integration: Pulls Points of Interest (POIs) directly from Google Maps, ensuring the location data is comprehensive and current. This includes businesses, landmarks, and other place types.
• Interactive Search and Filtering: Provides a search form where users can either use their current location or enter any address. They can then filter results by specific place categories, like restaurants or schools.
• Detailed Place Pages: Each location on the map links to a dedicated page showing the address, distance, website, photos, and user reviews. This gives visitors the information they need to make a decision.
• Integrated Routing: Users can get directions to any selected place directly on the map. The tool supports multiple travel modes—driving, transit, walking, and bicycling—and displays step-by-step instructions in a widget without requiring a page reload.
• Admin Customization: Offers settings within the admin panel to adjust the plugin's visual style and behavior, allowing it to match the existing design of your website seamlessly.
