    I am using the basic google maps placemarks plugin for the website http://www.wunderkeeper.ch/wundertour/ on the computer it shows without problem but when viewing it on my ipad it gets heavily disorted. other pages such as the mentioned page washingtonhousechurches.net do look well. i have looked into everything i can think of to find a difference but was yet unable to find a reason it’s not working on my site.

    it’s a free to play augmented reality game on i-devices advertising a exhibition in the natural historic museum in case you wonder 🙂

    i’d be very happy for any hints where this problem comes from.
    thanks you

    It looks like you don’t have the viewport meta tag set. Did you disable it?

    Hi Ian, Yes i disabled it because i hoped (as described) to solve the problem. However in both modes (i reverted it to the original again) it has the same problem. It looks as if the overlayed graphics (the map is consisting of 2 image layers) are mixed up heavily.
    thank you

    I had to change to a different google maps plugin, as it’s important that the service works. thanks for your help

    No problem. I haven’t heard any other reports of it not working with the viewport meta tag in tact, so I’m guessing there’s something in your theme or another plugin that’s causing the problem.

    Hi, We love this plugin too, but we have also noticed the same problem actually. ipad 1 & 2 are fine, but it’s on ipad 3 where the problem seems to rise.

    The website(s) (more than one) display fine on the ipad 3, but the map is all scrambled. The position, width and height of the map are correct, but the it is just the map itself. We have the following meta tag in use to support the responsive build:

    <meta name=”viewport” content=”width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, minimum-scale=1, user-scalable=0″ />

    but the plugin seems to ignore it? We have also tried adding:

    function removeBGMPHead()
    {
    global $bgmp;
    remove_action( ‘wp_head’, array( $bgmp, ‘outputHead’ ) );
    }
    add_action( ‘after_setup_theme’, ‘removeBGMPHead’ );

    to see if this was conflicting to ensure our meta tag is used.

    Any other suggestions would be great to hear.
