Hi there,

I can display a google map without any problems except when i try to hide the marker. I am displaying a map of a region (Provence in France) and therefore a specific marker is undesired. If i add the marker="false" to the the shortcode, the map is not displaying anymore. If i enable the marker, the map displays fine..

Any idea what is going wrong?

Hi,

You can unzip the attached file to striking\framework\shortcodes folder to fix the issue.

It will contained in the new release.

Did you use a address in the adressfield or did you use lat long values?

Remove the address and use lat - long values !

simonswiss

The address field is blank - i used lat and long values. I can see the demo working on your shortcode pages but it doesn't work for me.. ??

Thank you for your quick reply, your support is amazing!

Do you have multiple maps in one page or in a sidebar aswell?

simonswiss

nope, it's on the frontpage. Here is the link - at the moment i have left the marker="true" so the map displays

Can you give me the shortcode used here?

put it between [code] [/code] tags..... replace the [ ] by <>

 [gmap zoom="9" latitude="43.3" longitude="6.05" width="960px" height="370px" controls="true" panControl="false" scaleControl="false" overviewMapControl="false" scrollwheel="false" maptype="HYBRID" align="right"]

if i add [marker="false"] the map does not display anymore..

BackuPs

if i add this to my page with the marker set to false it works on my site.

the marker is gone and the map displays


[gmap zoom="9" latitude="43.3" longitude="6.05" width="960px" height="370px" controls="true" panControl="false" scaleControl="false" overviewMapControl="false" scrollwheel="false" maptype="HYBRID" align="right" marker="false"]

simonswiss

so it must be some sort of clash with another plugin? Google maps work absolutely fine except for the marker issue.. strange!

simonswiss

i just tried to create a test page with nothing else than the map on it - still the same issue - the marker="false" makes the map dissapear

*******UPDATE *********************

However it does not work when i remove the gmap in the footer which also has a marker. Sorry didn't think of that.

This sounds like a bug

i will send kaptinlin a email.

i have reported it here as a bug in 4.03

I know that it works on other sites.. I have de-activated ALL plugins and it still doesn't show up.

simonswiss

For the moment being i put the marker back as it breaks my map without it. Waiting for a fix hopefully. thanks in advance!

simonswiss

Thank you @KaptinLin i replaced gmap.php with your new file and the map now displays ok without a marker.

Thank you very much for your support and for a truely amazing theme!

KaptinLin
