The Google Map Geocoding API is a big step for setup, it would be helpful to perhaps have a network setting for the API so users would not have to bother. Or better yet, if they made use of Open Street Map, which has a geocoding API. One can dream and ask for the sky, right? ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/01fe8aa636b0e65c46f025ab2b97b4df800fb4ad17844698f977b1fddd5eee1d? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great tool for adding depth to Native/indigenous stories](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-tool-for-adding-depth-to-native-indigenous-stories/)󠁿 [pipewrenchmag](https://profiles.wordpress.org/pipewrenchmag/) September 4, 2021 The Native Lands Search plugin is quick to set up, works flawlessly in the block editor, is easily customized using its built-in settings and group or cover blocks, and gives WordPress site owners a great way to expose visitors to key information about Native an indigenous nations around the world.
