Plugin's Marker GeoMashup is fixed now

    Many of you have experienced/ing an issue where some of your markers are not displayed on the geo mashup map.

    That is happening due to Google’s rate limit (Google is accepting no more than 10 requests per second) to its Geo validator. Google rejects an address validation when too many validation requests per second are sent (plugin does address validation when user set marker’s address as a string, not as latitude and longitude.

    As a result of Google’s limitation I have added in plugin version 9.0.0 some basic request rate remedy logic and retry mechanism. After testing, I could see that no markers were lost anymore. I have tested it on my own WordPress with 50 markers and on a few more users’ blogs.

    Please keep in mind:
    A page that has GeoMashup map with large amounts of markers (100+) might take a little bit longer to load as a result of Google’s rate limit of requests per second.

    I hope this helps and gives a little bit more information to you

    Added caching in v9.0.1. The map page might be a little slow on the first load, but its should be faster on each subsequent load as gep mashup data is cached now. When pages/posts are published/deleted/updated/moved to draft – the cache is deleted

    I just updated to v9.0.1 and now the map won’t show at all and tells me “no marker set” but in the backend and in the shortcode, you can clearly see the marker.

    Using WordPress 3.7.1 with the free Hatch theme.

    Mine also broken after upgraded to latest version.

    Can you please provide a link to the live page where the map is?

    I downgraded to 8.0.1 to get the map working. However when you ask now, I upgrade again to latest version to show you.

    Let me see

    Did you try activating -deactivating the plugin? Hm… quite weird

    Would you mind if I have a look at your shortcode configured in the post? Can you email me at azagniotov at gmail ? Alternatively, I can have a look at your admin area…

    I have sent the shortcode to your email. You should have received it from sarangan2 at gmail. Also the lightbox warning box is ugly when things broke. I have a suggestion, please do like only admin (logged in to WP) can see that and don’t show that to normal visitors.

    Deactivating and activating didn’t helped. Only downgrade to 8.0.1 helped.

    Not 8.0.1 but *8.0.5.1*

    Hm….

    @sarangan112
    Thank you for emailing me the shortcode, I can see that there is nothing wrong with it: https://initbinder.com/articles/danmark-test.html

    Can you please try one more thing? Completely remove the plugin (delete and all its data) via WordPress, and install it again?

    Thank you

    This is what I did:
    Deleted the plugin completely from ftp.
    Downloaded the plugin again, uploaded, activated.

    It didn’t helped.

    Sarangan, thank you… please fallback to 8.0.5.1. I am really puzzled – I switched to doing geo address validation from the server side, and the reason why you have no marker in the new version because Google’s service returns an error:
    You have exceeded your daily request quota for this API: OVER_QUERY_LIMIT ..

    Which is a mystery to me as what are the chances you would exceed your daily limit?

    I will try to put a workaround… Thank you

    The Google Geocoding API has the following limits in place: 2,500 requests per 24 hour period… I will try to enable caching not only for geomashup

    Thanks. Downgraded to 8.0.5.1 and it works fine.
