A new addition to our PTB Addon line-up introducing the PTB Map View, an addon that allows you to display posts on a map by querying the location field from a custom post type. It works hand-in-hand with the Post Type Builder and PTB Extra Fields addon. It works by linking the Map field type on the selected custom post type then displays the posts on a map based on their location. You can insert your own custom image marker, select from our icon library, or use the default marker. When a marker is clicked users will see a pop-up preview of the post, and if they click the preview, it will redirect them to the actual post. The addon smartly adds/removes markers when you add/remove a post, ensuring that it only queries posts that have a location field. This is perfect for displaying properties for real-estate sites, restaurant locations, and store locations. Check out our demo page to see how you can use this cool new addon!

Would this allow the public to make posts in a form that has a location field and then it shows up on the map?

Yes, that is correct. As long as the post is built with the Post Type Builder plugin – https://themify.me/post-type-builder.
