Maps not rendering

Hi Bastien,

thanks for your hard work at developing this plugin!
I experience problem with map rendering on front end.
The address is entered correctly and found by the script, $lat $long are stored in custom fields. But when I try to call [events_map] or [events_details], no map is shown.

— When i use [events_map], it renders me a list of events, like it’s [events_list], these the DIVs of events are wrapped with the following DIV (as my inspector tells):
<div class=”event_loop event_geolist ” id=”event_geolist1″ data-tile=”toner” data-data-disabled-interactions=””>
I believe this is not a browser-related issue.
More, when using a map widget – it works!! But I don’t need any widget, everything is managed via main content area (content lists, map,…).

— When I use [events_details], it gives me grey box with some event details but shows no map.

– More, the setting “show above or below content” does not work, I had to hardcode do_shortcode(‘events_details’) in my theme file, otherwise the box is not shown.

– what is %event_thumbnail%, how do I set it, and why don’t you allow us use post featured images?

How can I make it work? Plugin looks simple, but fires many questions..
Maybe that’s a typical issue I’m experiencing, or something in the core functionality I’m missing?

PS I’m using a paid theme, quite customized by me to adapt to my needs, fresh install from scratch over my older database. I’ve adjusted schema a bit in plugin settings, but there’s nothing special related to map.

PPS by the way, please consider adding any sort of pagination in the future releases!

Hi,

thank you for taking time to write this long report.

The map issue looks like a javascript bug. do you have anything in the console which could help ?

quickly for other questions :

– event_thumbnail is option to display the post thumbnail
– pagination is in the roadmap

No errors in the console (
I have nothing that could help finding the problem point..

Could you at least give me an URL where the problem occurs ?

Bastien, looks like the plugin is broken overall on my site.

1) The link to special page, which you can use
http://dev.infographer.ru/karta-sobytij/
It is a ‘page’ type page, filled with shortcodes, the whole contents is:

START MAP // these texts in caps are for seeing where module work starts and ends visually.
[events_map nb=”-1″ future=”1″ past=”1″]
END MAP, START LIST
[events_list undefined=”list” nb=”5″ future=”1″ past=”1″ geo=”1″]
END LIST, START CAL
[events_cal]
END CAL

2) If you check http://dev.infographer.ru/sobytie-4/, it has empty map
The address is geo-coded correctly, I can even use lat and long custom values if I want to build my own map..

3) On the right sidebar, down there, you see list of events, but it is… MAP WIDGET.
I don’t get, why the _map_ shows List of events instead..

PS tried reinstalling plugin. Looks like I have to try to make a fresh install of WP to identify the problem.

can you try to remove the “tagcloud” widget please ?

whhoooops… It works.

It was a custom function that I wrote to get the list of tags related to specific post category. Simple code, I can’t identify where the problem comes from…

The code is below, for your reference. For sure, there is a conflict. As far as I see maps now, I’ll try to rework my tags function..

Howerver, as for the single post page, the problem still exists, have a look http://dev.infographer.ru/event-5/ . Removing the function from functions.php makes no difference.
```
function get_category_tags($category){
	query_posts('cat='.$category);
	if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();
        $posttags = get_the_tags();
		if ($posttags) {
			foreach($posttags as $tag) {
				$all_tags_arr[] = $tag -> term_id;
			}
		}
	endwhile; endif; 

	$tags_arr = array_unique($all_tags_arr);
}
```

No matters

for your information, your bug is in jquery.st.js around here:
```
st('.tagcloud a').each(function(){
    var number = st(this).attr('title').split(' ');
    number = '<span>' + number[0] + '</span>';
    st(this).append(number).attr('title','');
});
```
I mark this topic has “not a bug” 😉

st(this).attr('title') returns a jQuery object, not a string, so you can’t split it.

Okay, that’s clear. Still, as I noted above, for the single post page the problem still exists..
Have a look http://dev.infographer.ru/event-5/
(no tagcloud is fired there)

Bastien,

In addition to msg above (re: post map issue), fresh update to 4.2.1 now results in error
Uncaught TypeError: Failed to execute 'appendChild' on 'Node': parameter 1 is not of type 'Node'.
For your reference, check the same page http://dev.infographer.ru/karta-sobytij/
(map was working well).

Is it better with the last version ?

updated 4.2.1 -> 4.2.2
— Map is working, confirmed (http://dev.infographer.ru/karta-sobytij/)
— Event details is not working (see http://dev.infographer.ru/event-5/). Console shows no errors. Any ideas?

It might be of importance to mention the fact that, for a single post, the event details box is NOT starting automatically (I suppose it should be, for every of the “event” posts?). I had to hard-code it in single.php, firing the event_details shortcode, in the place you see it now (otherwise, nothing shows). I suppose hard-coding is not the way it should be, as it makes the “Event bar position for single posts” setting pretty useless.
