To replace the pins on the map with custom images, please follow these steps:

From Shopify's admin, select Settings.
Select Files.
Select Upload files.
Use the file manager to navigate to, select and upload your custom image.
Repeat steps 3 and 4 until you have uploaded all custom images.
Note: You will need the URLs for these images later so ensure you copy and paste them to notepad or do the next steps in another window so you can refer to them.
From Shopify's admin, select Apps.
Select Store Locator.
Select Settings.
Select Display Settings.

Copy and paste this code in the "Page Footer HTML" field:

<script>
old_add_markers = add_markers;
add_markers = function (){
 // this is the default Icon image displayed on the map
 mainIcon = "####";
 // this is the icon used to display the users address
 youIcon = "!!!!";
 // this is a shadow used for both icons
 myshadow = "****";
 add_markers = old_add_markers;
 add_markers ();
}
</script>
<style>
#direction_destination, .addresses li {
/*this should also be the default Icon image displayed on the map */
background-image: url("####");
}
</style>

paste this code in the Page Footer HTML

Replace ####, !!!!, and **** with the URLs to the images. Please ensure you leave the double quotation marks. ("") (from step 5).
Select Save.

That's it!
