AIT Plugins Get Directions WordPress Plugin

Description

The Get Directions addon adds a routes button with Google Maps to the listing pages created by AIT Plugins, calculating the route between the address registered in the item and the visitor’s current location. The feature is aimed at business directories, tourist attractions, restaurants, and service providers, where guiding the visitor to the physical location is part of the conversion journey.

Main Features

• Item routes button: inserts a “Get Directions” link on each establishment listing in the directory.
• Google Maps integration: triggers route calculation directly in the maps API, with a plotted route from point A to point B.
• Visitor geolocation: uses the browser’s current location as the starting point of the route.
• Native compatibility with AIT Plugins: works joined with AIT themes and directories without extra template configuration.
• Multiple transport modes supported: lets the user choose a walking, driving, or public transport route within Maps itself.

Benefits of Get Directions

• More in-person visits: reduces friction between finding the establishment online and physically arriving at it.
• Direct mobile experience: on mobile devices, the route opens in the Maps app, integrated with the device’s GPS.
• More useful directory: provides actionable information beyond the written address, enhancing each listing.
• Fast deployment: activates the routing feature throughout the catalog without editing individual pages.

Who Is It Recommended For?

• Local directory sites built with AIT themes and plugins.
• Tourism, gastronomy, and services portals with registered physical points.
• Agencies that develop listings and regional guides for clients.

Recommended for those who maintain AIT Plugins-based directories and want to transform each listing item into a navigable destination to the real address.
