Out of the Block vs PDF Embedder

A map block for Gutenberg which uses OpenStreetMap and Leaflet.js. It needs no API keys and works out of the box (or, out of the Block, if you prefer). Benefiting from Gutenberg’s potential, the plugin tries a different take on how to add your locations on the map and rethinks a few things, UX-wise. Instead of manually adding coordinates for each one of your markers, just click-and-drop them directly on the map. You want to adjust their position? Just drag them wherever you want. And instead of filling-in custom fields to set each marker’s popup content, just open that popup and start writing in it, the Gutenberg way (it supports WYSIWYG editing, with links, images, and all). It even stores the map’s zoom level as you use it so that you don’t have to set it by hand. Follow the project’s development on GitHub Release history Roadmap Hooks🪝 Shortcodes Features No need for API keys. Just install and use it. Support for multiple markers. Support for a different icon per marker. Support for polygons and polylines. Marker clustering: group nearby markers into clusters that expand as you zoom in. Dead-simple interface. Don’t search for coordinates and don’t get overwhelmed by too many fields when using multiple markers. Just point and click on the map to add your marker where you want it and edit it’s popup content directly from there. Place search. Find locations by typing keywords. Remembers the zoom that you set when adding the markers and stores it so that you don’t set it by hand (which you can do anyway if you prefer). AI integration which allows you to add markers by using commands in natural language. Just say “please” to activate (e.g. “Please, show me where GOT was filmed”). Requires an API key from an AI Provider, or a site-level AI connector on WordPress 7.0+. Read more. Query Maps: Supports creating a map out of maps added on other posts or post types. This can be quite powerful when, for example, you have a custom post type for “Places” with each place having its own map, and you want to dynamically gather-up all the places on a single map. Shortcode support: You can use the shortcode [ootb_query] as an alternative way to use the aforementioned Query Maps feature (see the FAQ for more info). Support for a location custom field, which can be used to store a post’s or post type’s location, following the Geodata guidelines. Read more in the v.2.8.0 release notes. Adjust the map height. Change the default marker icon with a custom one. Enable or disable map dragging. Enable or disable touch zoom. Enable or disable double-click zoom. Enable or disable scroll wheel zoom. Set a minimum and maximum limit that the user can zoom on the frontend. Setting the same value to both fields will lock the zoom at that level. Support for other Layer Providers: MapBox (using your own API key) and Stamen. Option to export locations in a JSON file Option to import locations from a JSON file

Upload PDF files and embed them directly into your site’s posts and pages. It works as simple as adding images! Your PDF files will be automatically sized to their natural size and shape. You can also specify a width and the correct height will be calculated automatically. Our PDF Embedder plugin is fully responsive, so the embedded PDF will also look perfect, on any device. Additionally, the pdf embedder will automatically resize whenever the browser dimensions change. The plugin has a unique method for embedding PDF files with the immense flexibility over the appearance of your document. The PDF viewer has Next and Previous buttons to navigate the document, and zoom buttons if some areas of a PDF file are too small for your screen. Your PDF files are embedded within your existing WordPress pages so we have full control over appearance, and all Javascript and other files are served by your own server (not by Google or any other third-party who may not be able to guarantee their own reliability). This means your PDF files will load fast, without any speed penalty. Other PDF embedder plugins insert the PDF into an ‘iframe’ which means they do not get the flexibility over sizing. Ours does not and that is an incredible benefit to the overall viewing experience across all devices. In the free plugin, there is no button for users to download the PDF, but download options are available in the Premium versions along with other awesome features. Another Premium feature are Hyperlinks in your PDF being clickable. Links in the free plugin cannot be clicked. Usage Once installed and Activated, click Add Media from any page or post, just like adding an image, but drag and drop a PDF file instead. In the Classic Editor when you insert into your post, it will appear in the editor as a ‘shortcode’ as follows: [pdf-embedder url="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Plan-Summary.pdf"] You can change the default appearance – e.g. width, and toolbar position/appearance through Settings -> PDF Embedder and also shortcode or block attributes. To override your site-wide defaults on an individual embed, see the Plugin Instructions for information about sizing options plus other ways to customize the shortcodes. Premium Features Features available in the PDF Embedder Premium versions: Download button in the toolbar Continuous scroll between pages Hyperlinks are fully functional Full screen mode Edit page number to jump straight to page Track number of downloads and views Mobile-friendly Secure option – difficult to download original PDF Removes wp-pdf.com branding See wp-pdf.com for details! Mobile-friendly embedding using PDF Embedder Premium The free version will work on most mobile browsers, but cannot position the document entirely within the screen. Our PDF Embedder Premium plugin solves this problem with an intelligent ‘full screen’ mode. When the document is smaller than a certain width, the document displays only as a ‘thumbnail’ with a large ‘View in Full Screen’ button for the user to click when they want to study your document. This opens up the document so it has the full focus of the mobile browser, and the user can move about the document without hitting other parts of the web page by mistake. Viewers can then Click Exit to return to the regular page. The user can also swipe continuously between all pages of the PDF which is more natural than clicking the navigation buttons to navigate. See our site wp-pdf.com for more details and purchase options. Protect your PDFs with our premium document embedder version Our PDF Embedder Premium plugin on its Pro plan provides the same simple but elegant viewer as the Basic version, with the added protection that it is difficult for users to download or print the original PDF document. This means that your PDF is unlikely to be shared outside your site where you have no control over who views, prints, or shares it. Optionally, add a watermark containing any text, including the logged in user’s name or email address to discourage sharing of screenshots. See our site wp-pdf.com for more details and purchase options. PDF Thumbnails Our PDF Thumbnails plugin automatically generates fixed image versions of all PDF files in your Media Library, to use on your site as you wish. You can use them as featured images in posts containing an embedded version of the PDF, or as a visual clickable link to download the PDF directly. It also displays the thumbnail as the “icon” for the PDF in the Media Library, making it easy for authors to locate the PDFs they need to insert in a post. See our site wp-pdf.com/thumbnails/ for more details and purchase options. With thanks to the Mozilla team for developing the underlying pdf.js technology used by this PDF documents viewer plugin.
