Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Gmap Block Pro
Pro turns the embed into a real map you control. Add as many locations as you need, give each one its own marker and info window, restyle the map to match your theme, and stop it hijacking the page scroll.
Pro needs a free Google Maps API key. The plugin walks you through creating one and includes a Test this key button that tells you exactly which Google API still needs enabling, so you are never left guessing at a blank map.
