It works! Thanks for the quick fix. BTW the plugin is awesome.

We disabled your plugin so the rest of our website is working. You can now see the shortcodes. Let me know if reenabling the addin for a short time will help your debug process.

The shortcode is:

[osm_map_v3 map_center=”38.7115,20.6564″ zoom=”12″ width=”100%” height=”1000″ tagged_type=”post” type=”OpenTopoMap” tagged_filter=”Trails” map_border=”thin solid green” mwz=”true”]

Thanks. Look foreword to seeing the latest batch of fixes in the WordPress addin. Thanks.

When I was trying to get your filter to work then all pages had the same named latlng custom fields. over all languages.

To get it to work I’ve now split each language so all in english have one latlng name and the other has a different one. That way I can select the pages for a language group.

No. That would be good if you did :-). Hard to see a pattern to what appears … sometimes one language, then another, then all.

My new workaround (appears to work) is to have two sets of lat lng in differently named custom fields for the two different language pages. I then set latngs= to the language group I want. Bit of a cludge but it works.

So not sure if you want to support use of polylang …… would be helpful … but there is a workaround.

Actually – that workaround doesnt work reliably. I can’t control which language version of the page is used as a marker – even using different categories.

Amazing. Thanks.

Great – thanks so much

I’ve been doing a lot of testing to try to get to the bottom of this. I think the problem is my use of Polylang for multiple language versions of my pages. I have two categories, one for each language. On a map I am showing the markers for the appropriate language by specifying the category for each language in each of the two versions of the page. This is not working – it picks up both language pages. Although there are two categories – the fact they are linked as different languages for the same category means your code gets confused.

To work around I’ve added two dummy categories and don’t link them for language. I can then select the pages I need.

It would help if your code worked with polylang. I think it will be a common use case to show just markers for the right language.

Thanks for your testing efforts too.

I use an addin to add categories and tags to Pages. I’ve also tested with my Posts too.

Thanks so much. That really helps.

Incidentally, if find this also works …

[leaflet-map fitbounds]
[overviewmap category=”Points of Interest” show_thumbnails=1 icons=ovm-leaflet-marker opacity=0.5]
[fullscreen]

As long as there is a custom field called ovm-leaflet-marker with ANYTHING in it. “xxx” works. You get the Leaflet default icon with opacity. My guess is that is a bug … so won’t rely on it. Maybe it helps you implement not having to have “icons=ovm-leaflet-marker”

Thanks again.

I’ve tried this and I’m stuck. Sorry I realise documentation is hard. You product is great.

Can you give me a simple example with an option such as opacity set in the overviewmap? An example with only lat and lng coming from the custom fields would be best – although if any other things have to be in custom fields then that is fine.

Where I am at is:
[leaflet-map fitbounds]
[overviewmap category=”Points of Interest” show_thumbnails=1 icons=ovm-leaflet-marker opacity=0.5]
[fullscreen]

In custom fields I have overview-latlng and ovm-leaflet-marker set to lat,lng and an icon respectively.

Am I close?

So do you mean the marker attributes can only be set in the custom field, and not [overviewmap]?
