Preview your map from within the dashboard
Your site is not yet live but you want to see how your map will look?No problem! You can easily preview your map and any updates made within the Storemapper dashboard.
Storemapper makes it easy to preview and customize your store locator map before publishing it live. This lets you perfect the layout, colors, filters, and location behavior so your store locator matches your brand — and your users’ expectations.
From the Storemapper dashboard, navigate to the Map Preview tab. Here, you’ll see a live rendering of how your map will look on your website. Any changes you make in the customization settings will reflect instantly.
For any changes made within your account, ensure you refresh the map preview page to see these changes reflected. This does sometimes require a hard refresh (CTRL ALT +R).
Note: the Preview does inherit a little bit of styles from our app so if you’re really cranking on the CSS you might want to do it on your own site to get it just right.
You can adjust pin colors, map themes (light/dark/gray-scale), default zoom level, search radius, and result layout. Add custom filters (like “pickup only” or “authorized reseller”) to help users refine their search. You can even change the copy that appears in search buttons and result cards.
Once satisfied, copy your embed code and paste it on your website — the live version will match your preview exactly. No additional publishing steps required.
This preview and customization process is one of the easiest ways to align your map experience with your site’s design and your customer needs.
