 * Heya Robert,
 * Strange thing happened when I locked down my wp-content folder by adding a .htaccess
   file in the root containing the following code:
 *     ```
       # Prevent Access To wp-content
   
       Order deny,allow
       Deny from all
       <Files ~ ".(xml|css|jpe?g|png|gif|js)$">
       Allow from all
       </Files>
       ```
   
 * Now all the markers from all the maps are gone. It shouldn’t do that. Why is 
   that?
 * Adventurous greetings,
    Coen
