FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Maps.co Geocoding
Turn an address into coordinates, and back, using Maps.co — free at low volume and no card required.
What it does
Same job as Google's Geocoding API, from a service you can use without a billing account. Maps.co is built on OpenStreetMap data: less precise than Google on individual buildings, entirely adequate for a town, a postcode or a delivery radius.
The response is an object with named methods, and lookups are cached, since an address does not move.
Features
- Turn a written address into latitude and longitude
- Turn coordinates back into a display address
- Get map links for Google, Apple, Bing and OpenStreetMap without building URLs
- Read the OpenStreetMap type and id behind a result
- Cache lookups for as long as suits, and clear one on demand
- Start without a billing account, which Google's equivalent requires
Installation
Quick start
Geocode an address when it is saved:
And a link somebody can actually open:
What it does not do
It will not reliably find a specific flat in a building, or a new-build street.
For that, Google's Geocoding API is worth the billing account —
arraypress/wp-google-geocoding is the same shape.
Requirements
- PHP 8.3 or later
- WordPress 7.1 or later
- A Maps.co API key (free tier, no card)
