Features

Two bundled maps

  • US States — all 50 states plus DC
  • US Federal Regions — the 10 standard federal regions

    • Accessible by design

    Areas are keyboard focusable and operable (Enter or Space to activate), labelled for screen readers, and the map carries a no-JavaScript link fallback so it still works and navigates without scripts. Tooltips are dismissible, hoverable, and persistent, and the Great Lakes and name labels are marked decorative so assistive tech is not cluttered.

    Near-zero front-end footprint

    The map is inline SVG with one small deferred script. No jQuery, no web fonts, no map tiles, no external API, and no requests to anyone. Hover and active states are pure CSS, so the map is correct on the first paint with no JavaScript. The script loads only on pages that actually show a map.

    One-click legacy import

    When you activate the plugin on a site that still has the old US Map or US Regional Map data, it creates a map for each and imports it once, keeping your colours, links, and tooltip content. Your old data is left untouched, and you can re-run the import any time from a map's Tools panel.

    Upgrade to Pro

    US Maps Pro builds on this free engine and adds:

  • Drill-down and zoom — click a state to open its counties, or a country to open its regions, loaded on demand
  • Premium map packs — every US county, world countries, and US territories
  • Native lightbox — open rich content for any area in an accessible modal
  • Area grouping — combine areas into one unit that shares a colour, link, and tooltip
  • Document attachments — attach Media Library files that render as download chips
  • Automatic licensed updates
