Salesforce Map Locators Sync | Salesforce WordPress Location Sync
Salesforce is a popular CRM (Customer Relationship Management) and cloud-based IT application provider with solutions in various sectors like marketing, analytics, and customer service. Salesforce's real-time capabilities allow you to ensure that map locator data stays up-to-date across both WordPress and Salesforce. Any changes made in Salesforce can be reflected immediately on your WordPress site through automated syncing mechanisms. Consider the following use case with WordPress, for example where you want to sync Salesforce objects containing location coordinates on your WordPress site.
Scenarios
- In this case, we have a real estate company that wants to display a map on a WordPress site with all its locations as markers on the map. These locations are stored in Salesforce as objects containing the latitude and longitude coordinates of the locations.
- On a similar basis, another real estate company wants to display a map on their WordPress site marking all the locations with additional details such as address, contact information, website URL, and so on. Here, the Custom Go Map Pro plugin will store all the information in its tables received from the Salesforce objects which contain all the information about different locations.
Components Involved
Case 1
- Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) Plugin: This plugin will store all the latitude and longitude information received from Salesforce and display it on the WordPress Map.
- WP Object Data Sync for Salesforce: This will synchronize the Salesforce objects containing location information to ACF fields in WordPress.

Case 2
- Custom Go Map Pro plugin: This plugin will store all the latitude and longitude information received from Salesforce and display it on the WordPress Map.
- WP Object Data Sync for Salesforce: This plugin will synchronize the Salesforce objects containing location information to the Custom Go Map Pro table in WordPress.
WordPress Salesforce Object Sync | Sync Salesforce Objects bidirectionally with WordPress. Enable real-time sync, scheduled sync, Salesforce Sync with Workflows Automation, sync leads from WordPress to Salesforce, Salesforce ACF/CPT UI integrations, and more.
Solution
In both scenarios, we aim to synchronize the latitude and longitude of locations shown on the map. For Case 1, we'll use the ACF plugin, which helps create a field similar to Google Maps. In Case 2, we'll utilize the Custom Go Map Pro plugin, enabling synchronization of locations along with additional details like contact information, website URL, and address.
To accomplish this, we'll leverage the Object Data Sync for Salesforce plugin to sync location-related data from Salesforce Objects into WordPress. Moreover, we can set up a bi-directional sync, allowing us to store map locations in Salesforce objects as latitude and longitude coordinates. The flow in which the solution will be implemented is as follows:
- To create sync between Salesforce and WordPress the Object Data Sync for Salesforce plugin checks the successful connection between WordPress and the Salesforce application. Once the connection is verified, Object Mapping is performed to map WordPress attributes to Salesforce fields which store the lat and long coordinates.
- Once real-time sync flow is configured for Salesforce or bulk pull of records is initiated, the plugin would inevitably sync those coordinates to WordPress according to the Object Mapping configured.
- In Case 1, The plugin will sync these coordinates from Salesforce to WordPress in a format acceptable to ACF and in turn, ACF will display them as location points on the Map on the WordPress site.
- In Case 2, The plugin will synchronize these objects to the Go Map Pro plugin custom table, and in turn, Go Map Pro will display the markers on the map in WordPress. Additionally, all other details regarding the location such as shop name, contact details, address, website URL, etc. are also synced and displayed on the map along with the location markers.
Conclusion
In the above scenarios, we've demonstrated object mapping to visualize the location coordinates stored in Salesforce on the Maps of WordPress site along with additional details using Object Data Sync for Salesforce plugin and field mapping plugins (ACF and Custom Go Map Pro). Object Data Sync for Salesforce plugin supports various sync options, such as a real-time sync, scheduled sync, and bidirectional sync i.e., WordPress to Salesforce sync and vice-versa and so on, etc.
The Object Data Sync for Salesforce plugin enables seamless integration between WordPress and Salesforce, supporting various third-party Integrations such as WooCommerce, Memberships Pro, Gravity Forms, Contact Form 7, ACF and more.
