There must be a bug that is happening again… this could have been through the latest WordPress update, I will have our developer take a look at this. Sorry for taking so long to get back to you, thank you for your patience.
Is there any update for this? I’m also having the same problem. I really love the Travel Blogger theme mostly because of the automatic tagging of posts on a homepage map widget.
I really hope that this could be fixed soon, or at least with WordPress 3.7.
Can you confirm that this problem is being investigated?
@enduro: As per the Forum Welcome, please post your own topic.
Hi Enduro,
At the risk of angering the forum goddess I can tell you that the only workaround I found was to use raw lat/lon values instead of plain language street addresses, city names, etc. My guess based on troubleshooting my site is that the blank spaces found in the physical addresses aren’t parsed correctly – by using the raw lat/lon those spaces are eliminated.
Good luck!
Sorry esmi, I saw no reason to as this thread was not marked resolved and was the most current topic still.
Thanks FoothillsInno. I’ll try that. Can you provide an example of how you formatted the entry?
Edit: I typed “46.184585,-123.831764” into the “Enter Address Related to Post” with no spaces and still didn’t get anything. It just disappears when I press Update or Publish. Oh well. WP 3.7 doesn’t seem to be fixing the problem, either.
Enduro,
To be honest I finally gave up on Travel Blogger for a number of reasons. I customized another theme to meet my needs and installed a plug-in (Comprehensive Google Map) that offered an auto-generating map mashup feature. Here’s the link to the result :
Contact me offline if you have any questions; there’s a contact link on the Help page of the site.
Wow, what buggy forum software. Let’s try that link again.
Thanks for the help. I bookmarked that plug-in the other day. My site isn’t going live for a couple months yet, so I’m going to continue and hope it gets fixed.
Great looking site, by the way. Like how clean the design is.
Thanks for the feedback. Best of luck with your site. If I can be of any help let me know …
Hey folks,
Again sorry about the late responses here. There is a fix. Here are the details.
For the Google Maps widget, if you are running the latest version of the theme, go under Appearance > Theme Options and Layout, scroll down to Travel Blogger Support, and click on the link to update your Google Maps Locations, and this should fix the issue. If you still have problems with this, please contact us via our support page here:
