LMDM Styles for Open User Map

The Open User Map plugin provides global settings for map style and marker icons. This plugin adds more control directly inside the Gutenberg block sidebar, so you can overwrite these global defaults for a single open-user-map/map block.

This is useful when one page needs a different tile style, another map should use a custom marker icon, or individual markers on the same map should use different icons.

Attention

You need to install and activate Open User Map first. Without it, this plugin has no map block to extend.
