Concrete CMS Add-on: Japan Map Link

Map Link and Location Guidance System

Map link display block for Concrete CMS

This is a Concrete CMS block that combines a map and regional buttons to clearly display sales areas, locations, and service regions.

The company's sales area, service area, branches/offices, and service areas can be displayed visually and clearly on a map.
You can place buttons for each region, and clicking them will take you to a specified location or guide you to internal pages, external links, or anchor links.

What you can do with this system

You can place multiple regional buttons on the map and set descriptions and links for each.

for example,

• Yamaguchi area
• Around Hofu City
• Ube area
• Shunan district
• Shimonoseki area

You can create region-specific buttons like this, and when a user clicks on them, they will be directed to the respective region's page or service information.

Since the map uses OpenStreetMap, you can display the map without using a Google Maps API key or anything like that.

Main Features

You can display a map on your website using OpenStreetMap.
You can visually display your company's location, service area, sales area, stores, buildings, and other locations.

Displaying region buttons

You can display buttons for specific regions on or around the map.
You can individually set the button name, description, link destination, and latitude/longitude.

This allows for smooth navigation to regional pages, service pages, location introduction pages, and more.

You can also set anchor links like #yamaguchi .
It can also be used to redirect users to the regional description area within the same page.

Individual design settings

You can set the button color, text color, and transparency for each region button.
You can color-code areas by region or highlight important areas.

Sample creation ON/OFF

You can choose whether or not to create a sample button when creating a new item.

Examples of use

Service Area Guide

You can view the service area using a map and buttons.
Clicking on a region name will take you to detailed service information for that region.

Branch and Sales Office Information

You can find multiple branches, sales offices, stores, and meeting halls on a map.
You can find links to detailed pages for each location.

Funeral hall and service area guide

This can be used on funeral service websites and funeral home websites to provide information about the location of funeral halls and service areas.
By linking it with pages for each region and pages introducing the community centers, you can create a user-friendly navigation system.

Tourism and local information website

You can guide people to tourist attractions, restaurants, facilities, event venues, and more using maps and buttons.

Benefits of implementation

You can tell the service area just by looking at it.

Maps allow you to intuitively convey information that is difficult to communicate through text-only local guides.

Strengthen the pathways to local pages.

Because you can link to internal pages from the region buttons, it becomes easier to guide users to regional service pages and detailed information.

Design adjustments can be made in the admin panel.

Button color, text color, transparency, and description can all be configured from the administration screen, allowing for display that matches your site design.

Map display without API key

By using OpenStreetMap, you can display maps without using a Google Maps API key.
