WP 3.8 /WP Geo 3.3.3 not respecting controls pref

Please try downloading and installing the current in-development version of WP Geo and see if that fixes your issue.

Certainly some issues with control have been addressed in the forthcoming version.

PS. Have you switched the WP Geo settings to use Google API version 3?

I have been on API v3 since the beginning. I will try downloading the dev version to see if that helps, thanks.

Well, that didn’t work. The pan and zoom controls are still sitting on top of my map, despite the prefs being set not to in settings. Is there another place that controls this in either the shortcode options or template options?

In the previous version, these controls did not show up btw, and all the settings are identical. (and I have tried changing the controls settings to other sizes with zero effect, it is always the same large panning disk and plus/minus signs)

Any other suggestions?

Stephen, I think I have been able to create this locally now when the setting is set to show no controls – it’s sounds like that is the option you have selected?

I’ll look into where the problem is…

Hi Ben, Thanks for getting back to me. That was the setting I had, but to be clear it does not matter which of the settings I choose (smaller/larger controls) from the dropdown, I am always getting the exact same large panning control and plus/minus zoom control.

Thanks!

And just so I can recreate your setup, have you set the maps to show automatically or are you using a shortcode or template tag – if so which one?

You can check out the site here: https://satoristephen.com

For single post pages, I am using a simple text widget (with a plugin that allows shortcodes) and the shortcode [wp_geo_map]

For the homepage, however, I am using the following code in my template:

<?php $paged = ( get_query_var( 'paged' ) ) ? get_query_var( 'paged' ) : 1;
$custom_query = array(
'posts_per_page'	=> 10,
'paged'	 => $paged
);
$newquery = array_merge( $wp_query->query, $custom_query );

wpgeo_map( $newquery ); ?>

Both the above are unchanged since 3.3.2 (and WP 3.7), which worked just fine.

Thanks!

Stephen,

I’m made a couple of updates, can you try the development version again?

That fixed it, thanks!

Great, will try to get a proper release out soon.

ugh! Somehow when I updated to the latest version, it broke my front page widget, which used to show all points on the map from all posts on the main page. But since updating, they are all gone, and the map is centered on london.

The individual single post pages are working.

I just redownloaded the dev version you linked to above and installed it, and thankfully it works properly. Don’t know what the diffs are between it and the release version.
