We've added a new map theme called Standard to our ExpressMaps map styles. Standard gives your store locator a clean, familiar look that will feel instantly recognizable to your customers, so they can concentrate on finding their nearest location rather than working out how to read the map.


The ExpressMaps Standard map theme


What's in the Standard theme


  • A light, neutral background that lets your store markers stand out.
  • Bright blue water and soft green parks, so coastlines, rivers and open spaces are easy to pick out at a glance.
  • Clearly graded roads, with motorways and main roads standing out from local streets, plus road number shields.
  • Crisp, easy-to-read labels for cities, neighborhoods, water and streets.
  • More detail as you zoom in: building outlines, points of interest and, at the closest zoom levels, house numbers.


How to switch to Standard


If your store locator uses ExpressMaps, log in to your admin console, go to the Appearance page and choose Standard from the ExpressMaps map style list, then click Save Setting. Your store locator will use the new theme straight away; there's nothing to change on your website.


As always, thanks for being a Store Locator Widgets customer. If you have any feedback on the new theme, we'd love to hear from you.
