My Location Page isn’t Appearing in My Embedded Google Map?
As of Yoast SEO 20.0, the settings interface inside our plugins has received a major overhaul. Please update to the latest version of Yoast SEO if your plugin does not look like the screenshots you encounter in our Help center.
Location pages are pages that are created by the Local SEO plugin. The WordPress defaults permit these to have different kinds of statuses:
- Published
- Draft
- Pending Review
- Private
- Password Protected
Local SEO comes with the ability to embed a Google Map via a shortcode or a widget to show your location. Changing the status of the page affects how the map appears for you and your visitors as described below.
Status | Does it show for administrators, authors, or editors? | Does it show for subscribers, users not logged in or visitors? |
Published/Public | ✅ | ✅ |
Draft | ✅ | ❌ |
Pending Review | ❌ | ❌ |
Private | ❌ | ❌ |
Password Protected | ✅ | ✅ |
