 * Hello, I’ve recently had trouble with the plugin to get it to update markers.
   Used to work fine, and I can’t recall anything that was done which may have messed
   it up. Tried a few things on my end including uninstalling/reinstalling and the
   weird thing was I could edit markers with a fresh plugin install, but when I 
   restored the markers using the database, it won’t edit anymore. I can still update
   layers fine, but markers won’t do anything. Permissions are set ok and I’m not
   getting any errors. This happens for all markers, but could there be something
   that was entered along the way like a weird character or something which is causing
   the update failure for all markers? Thanks for any advice.

 * Hi,
    please follow the tutorial from mapsmarker.com/readme-first which give you
   a guideline on how to deal with that kind of issues (especially tests for plugin
   conflicts) – could also related to a caching issue with special caching plugins/
   server components. best, Robert

 * Just completed going through all the motions of readme instructions.
 * No luck on this. Went from WP 3.9.2 to 4.0 – didn’t help, updated the Leaflets
   Map Marker plugin to the latest version – didn’t help. Disabled all plugins –
   didn’t help, switched themes – didn’t help. All caching plugins have been outright
   deleted from WP.
 * I ran another experiment where I backed up the marker table using phpmyadmin,
   then deleted all the markers. Was able to create a new marker and edit it a bunch
   of times with no problem. However, when I deleted the test marker and imported
   the backed up markers, I was no longer able to edit. Saving it just doesn’t seem
   to stick. Could I provide you with the sql file of the markers table to take 
   a look at? Wonder if there is anything in there that is causing things to mess
   up.
 * Thanks for your help.

 * Wp debug turned on? Any error messages there? Php and mysql error log available?
   If yes, please also have a look for any error messages when trying to update 
   a marker. Please also have a look at the browser console for any Javascript error
   messages…

 * I turned debug on, looked at the browser console. Had a few errors crop up –

   [http://uptownartsdistrict.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Capture2.PNG](http://uptownartsdistrict.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Capture2.PNG).
   The strange thing about the second error is that I was able to, like before, 
   wipe out all markers from the database with phpmysql, and it let me add and edit
   a new marker fine. As soon as I restored the marker table, it started acting 
   up again.

 * it seems like something went wrong when deleting and restoring the tables via
   phpmyadmin – please make sure all restrictions & other dependencies are exactly
   the same when reimporting!
