Grey Maps

The error shows that the Google Maps library is loaded more than once, and this can create issues. Likely not the one you are having one, but it can create other problems.

Can you enable the compatibility mode on the WPSL settings page -> Tools section, and see if that errors goes away?

Does it also show the grey map with a default WP theme? Most likely this happens because of a CSS rule doing something with the Google Maps images. If it still shows with a default theme, then try to disable all other plugins to rule out an issue with another plugin.

I have tried your plugin in my wordpress website. I wanted to change the color of button but, i couldn’t change it. I tried one of your coding in the css but i did not getting through it. Please help me as soon as possible.

@preet777 Don’t hijack another thread, just create a new one next time.

The ID you need to target for the submit button is #wpsl-search-btn. You can set the background through CSS.

Something like this should work. It sets the background color to white, and the font color to black. Just adjust the color to whatever you want.

#wpsl-search-btn {
   color: #000 !important; 
   background-color: #fff !important;
}

Hi Tijmen,

We have the same problem. It was always working correctly but now, after typing a city and search I just see a grey screen with the icons. I tried to update your plugin to the newest version but that didn’t make a difference.

@asjbakkie You should start a new thread next time instead of continuing an old one, that way I see it quicker.

Other people have the issue as well, but it seems to come and go. I don’t see any grey areas on your map when I search for Berlin and zoom in and out. I have seen it, but it’s not always there.

I did some searching and I can across several reason. Simple network issues that prevented the correct images from being loaded and other mentioned firewall issue that blocked access to a certain Google Maps server. The last one seems unlikely since the map works fine now, but temporary network issues might very well be the case why it sometimes happens.

Nothing in the plugin code changed that handles the map itself.
