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.

WP PlugIndex currently records Max Interactive Maps version 1.2.0 as active, updated 11d ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
Max Interactive Maps adds a bundled SVG world map to WordPress. Place pins with a visual editor, choose their labels, destination URLs, colors and icons, then embed the published map using its shortcode. Maps do not require a third-party map service, map tiles or an API key.
Key Features
Drag-and-Drop Pin Placement – Add and position pins on the bundled world map
Percentage-Based Positioning – Pin anchors scale with the map’s SVG canvas
5 Pin Icon Styles – Choose from Simple Dot, Teardrop, Star, Flag, or Pushpin designs
Custom Color Controls – Set land color, water/background color, border color, and individual pin colors
Responsive Maps – Maps resize with their container and use smaller icons on narrower screens; crowded labels may need author adjustments
Place Structured Data – Labeled pins contribute Place entries to ItemList JSON-LD, with optional latitude/longitude you enter per pin; coordinates are never generated automatically
No Map-Service API – The map is bundled locally; WordPress supplies the editor libraries
Keyboard Controls – Focus and edit pins from the keyboard, including arrow-key positioning and a managed settings dialog
Save Feedback – Clear warnings for rejected or conflicting map edits and protected damaged records
Use Cases

Business locations and branch offices
Event locations
Real estate property maps
Tourism and attraction maps
