MAPS Multi-pin maps for Breakdance

Put all your locations on one map, no API key

Open Street Maps shows an interactive map with a pin for every address you add. Type an address and the element finds its coordinates for you. It uses OpenStreetMap, so there is no Google account or API key to set up.

No API key needed Multiple pins Greyscale and sepia filters
Live demos

Four maps built from typed addresses

Each map below is an Open Street Maps element with different settings: a store locator, a delivery area map, a round contact map and a walking route. Drag a map to move it, click a pin to see its address and use the + and - buttons to zoom.

How it works

Three steps to a map

No account, no keys, no coordinates to look up.

1

Add the element

Drop Open Street Maps onto your page. It starts with a single pin in London.

2

Enter your addresses

Add a row for each location and type its address. The element looks up the coordinates and places a pin.

3

Set zoom and style

Choose the zoom level, width and height, then add borders or a greyscale or sepia filter.

Features

What the map can do

A simple way to show where you are.

Multiple pins

Add as many addresses as you need. Every one gets its own pin on the same map.

Address lookup

Type a place name or street address. Coordinates are found for you through OpenStreetMap's Nominatim service.

No API key

Maps use OpenStreetMap tiles and the Leaflet library, so there is nothing to sign up for.

Pin popups

Click a pin to show its address in a small popup.

Auto centring

The map centres itself on the middle of all your pins.

Cached lookups

Each address is looked up once and cached for 30 days, which keeps pages fast.

Colour filters

Show the map in full colour, greyscale or sepia to suit your design.

No scroll trap

Scroll wheel zoom is turned off, so visitors can scroll past the map without getting stuck.

Hide zoom controls

Remove the + and - buttons for a cleaner look.

Use cases

Where it works best

Tips & FAQ

Good to know

Do I need a Google Maps API key?

No. The map uses OpenStreetMap and Leaflet, which do not need a key or an account.

Why do I only see one pin in the builder?

The builder shows a simple preview of the first location. All the pins appear on the front end.

What if an address is not found, or lands in the wrong place?

The builder shows a notice listing any address it could not find. Make the address more specific by adding the town, county, country or postcode. For example, "Easton, Bristol, UK" finds the right Easton.

Can visitors zoom the map?

Yes, with the + and - buttons. Scroll wheel zoom is off so the page scrolls normally. You can hide the buttons if you prefer.

Where is the map centred?

On the middle point of all your pins. Set the zoom level so every pin fits, as in the route demo above.

Where do the filters show?

Greyscale and sepia are applied on the front end only, so the builder preview stays in colour.
