    just upgraded and the map has disappeared in all posts

    by examining the generated code the [gmap] shortcode is missing but no "google maps" code is placed there

    i noticed too that there is no place for googlemaps api key. are we using a "general key"?

    thank you for your time.

    Hey herrpedro,
    the Google Maps API v3 doesn't need any key any more. Have you tried to check the settings and save them once again?
    Cheers!

    I also have problem with the upgrade.

    The map isn't showing, just the when I use a static map it works.

    Here I wanted to have a 900x500px big map showing all geotags/posts. I worked well in the previous version.

    Hi Roddan,
    have you tried to save all settings once again? The way they are stored in the database has changed and it may cause trouble if you don't save them once again.

    Yes, I have saved them once again. They are showing as static maps under posts, (see: http://moltocreative.se/gatukonsten/2011/04/07/fiskar-och-skejt/)

    But the map are not showing as a Dynamic map. Just static. Thats a problem for me when I want to show all the posts/photos in one map and let people find new street art.

    OK, hope you will find something. Before releasing this version I was a little bit afraid if it works well, becasue I changed almost the whole code. I didn't discover any problems but there is always something...:-). Saving the settings once again is very important. You should also check that the "Init maps when page loads" option is activated.

    Hi Roddan,
    maybe you can create a test post with a dynamic map. I will have a look at it.

    Hi herrpedro,
    maybe you can also create a post or a page (the latter one wouldn't be visible to your visitors) with a dynamic map and send me your link. I will have a look at it, too. But now I have to get off, because I have to catch a train tonight :-).
    Cheers!

    Hi again,

    So here is the testpost with a dynamic map.

    http://moltocreative.se/gatukonsten/2011/04/10/testpost/

    Code used: [gmap width="500" height="500" type="roadmap" static="false"]

  13. herrpedro

    this one is static

    http://www.panoramapalace.com/map-test

    the code is

    '[gmap marker_query="numberposts=5&offset=1&category=4"]'

    '[gmap static="false" marker_query="numberposts=5&offset=1&category=4"]'

    @Roddan,
    please add units (px or %) to the width and height values. If I do so, the map appears on your site.

    @herrpedro:
    At your page it seems to be a little bit more tricky. Perhaps you can remove all [gmap] tags from your test post and add the following:

    [gmap width="100%" height="400px" visible="true" static="false"]

    Maybe you can also try to disable all other plugins for a second, reload the test post once again and tell me if this will solve your problem.

    @ bobs1982

    I tried adding px or % and none of that worked. Could it be a database-problem after the upgrade to 2.0?

    @Roddan:
    That's strange because when I look at your source code I see the following:
    <div id="gmap_116_0" class="gmap dynamic" style="width:900; height:500;">

    If I change this to
    <div id="gmap_116_0" class="gmap dynamic" style="width:100%; height:500px;">
    I see your map. Usually the values for width and height are taken straight from the shortcode/options page without further processing (that's why it is neccessary to add the units). Maybe you can check both, your [gmap] shortcode as well as the default values on your options page and see if they both have a % or px at the end. Thanks!

    sweeettttt
    my maps are back

    but it seems like you're not using width and height from the "geotag options" settings?

    i just upgraded to 3.1.1 (last one)

    and again....
    i removed all the options and.. (just left the ones in geotag panel) and all it is working....

    in page too....

    all and all and i didnt know what was wrong :(

    other than that i'm pretty happy with your feedback

    @herrpedro:
    Glad to hear it's working. The width and height values should be taken from the Geotag options page. Only if you expressly set a value in the [gmap] shortcode the plugin will take this value...

    @herrpedro:
    You're welcome :-). I was afraid that the options will cause some trouble...maybe I should force the plugin to delete all old options in the database. I will have another look at your weblog when I'm back home.

    I added this "hardcode":

    <div id="gmap_116_0" class="gmap dynamic" style="width:100%; height:500px;">

    in to a html-view of the testpost. And now that work. However this code (in the same testpost)

    [gmap width="100%" height="500px" type="roadmap" static="false"]

    Dosen't work. Strange.

    @Roddan:
    That's really strange. Maybe you can try to delete the width and height values from the options page, then save them and set them again to something like 100%/500px and save them again. I think some "old" options might disturb the plugin. If this doesn't help, we can try to delete the old options from the database.

    Well, now the map is showing under all posts. Thats great. Don't really know what I changed.

    However, the map isn't showing under pages. I've activated twice the option of showing maps under pages in the settings-page. But with no luck. The map dosen't even show in the source code of my page.

    Whats up with that?
