Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about YaMaps for WordPress Plugin

At the moment, the key is needed only for the search on the map. The rest of the plugin functionality will work without a key. You can get the key (https://developer.tech.yandex.ru/services/) and enter it in the plugin settings page.

Just set type and zoom of the map in the visual editor window. On the site it will be displayed identically.

You can add a block with a classic editor and add a map with it. Later, native support can be added if most users start to use Gutenberg.

Use the tag "echo do_shortcode('')" with your map shortcode insde.

You can choose icon at https://tech.yandex.com/maps/doc/jsapi/2.1/ref/reference/option.presetStorage-docpage/ and set it manually to the "Icon" field. For example "islands#blueRailwayIcon". Also you can insert the URL of your file in the field. For example, PNG-image with transparency.

This is the limitation of Yandex.Map API. You can select a stretchy icon of the desired color at https://tech.yandex.com/maps/doc/jsapi/2.1/ref/reference/option.presetStorage-docpage/ and set it manually.
