Map not showing the right location

[mediafactory]

Hi,

I switched to a new server and had all data transferred. Just noticed that my map isn;t showing the right location. In the widget I didn’t change anything, so for example it is saying Rotterdam, but all active maps used via the swift page builder now show a place in the middle of the ocean next to Africa.

Creating a new page with a fresh map block gives the same result.

Any idea what this could be?

Thanks

Hi guys,

To fix this, open up functions.php and change the function on line 949 with the following:

function map_embed($address) {
        if (!is_string($address))die("All Addresses must be passed as a string");

        $address = str_replace(" ", "+", $address); // replcae all the white space with "+" sign to match with google search pattern

        $url = "http://maps.google.com/maps/api/geocode/json?sensor=false&address=$address";

        $response = file_get_contents($url);

        $json = json_decode($response,TRUE); //generate array object from the response from the web

        $_coords['lat'] = $json['results'][0]['geometry']['location']['lat'];
        $_coords['long'] = $json['results'][0]['geometry']['location']['lng'];

        return $_coords;
    }

This will be in the next update.

This does not work for me. I changed the function. But I still have this problem. Any other ideas?

Worked fine for me, be sure to copy the entire code in the map section.

I changed code in the file “/web/wp-content/themes/flexform/functions.php”.

But I still have this problem, although calculated coordinates correct. What can it be?

Hey guys,

Im hoping to get this into a hotfix update this evening, that you’ll be able to update too via the dashboard.

Im not sure where you’re going wrong, as I’ve tested this personally. Could you try with a new maps asset and cleared cache?

Thanks. Where can i find this hotfix in the dashboard?

Hi,

I made the change to the functions.php file and it worked but now it’s reverted back to ‘Chalet Sunset’ i.e. it’s not working again.

Nothing else was changed on the site so I’m confused.

Any ideas?

Thanbs,

Paul

Hey guys,

Hi Ed,

All works now thanks.

Just a note – the map cuts off at each end when used in the box layout. I can’t seem to locate the file where I can edit this and I think it’s part of the overall site CSS.

Is there a fix for this?

Thanks,

Paul

I can not update it, it hangs after some time. I do it in dashboard. Exist any way for update? Thanks.
