 * I have updated to the latest version of bgmp and now my maps are not loading.
 * My site was working perfectly fine before hand and I did not updated any other
   plugins at the same time.
 * I’ve spent the last 3hours searching forn answers and trying to get this resolved
   but to no avail.
 * Here’s one of the pages where a map should be.
    [http://www.norfolkplaces.com/indoor-soft-play/](http://www.norfolkplaces.com/indoor-soft-play/)
   On this page I have this shortcode:- [bgmp-map categories=”indoor-soft-play”]
 * Category based maps on my site is a key feature, so unfortunately it looks like
   I’ll have to search for a more reliable plugin if I can’t get this resolved soon.

 * Can you try changing line 1155 of core.php from…
 *     ```
       'details'	=> wpautop( $pp->post_content ),
       ```
   
 * …to
 *     ```
       'details'	=> $pp->post_content,
       ```
   
 * ?
 * I think that might be a clue.
 * Also, could you edit the Hulabaloos Indoor Play placemark, switch to HTML mode,
   and then copy/paste the raw HTML into a pastebin.com entry? Then link to it here.
   That might help me reproduce the problem on my dev server.

 * Hi Ian,
 * Making the change on line 1155 of core.php seems to have worked – Thanks for 
   your help!
 * I’m not sure I follow regarding the placemark- if If edit the placemark in wordpress
   and view the html all I see if the text I added with a href link. Pretty sure
   this isn’t what you need to help replicate it.

 * Hey majato, I’m glad (and, to be honest, kind of surprised) that that worked.
   That’s not the final solution, since wpautop() is needed to convert line breaks
   in the post to paragraphs, but it’s a clue.
 * Would you be willing to send me the following things, so that I can try to recreate
   your environment locally and test different fixes?
    1. Backup of your database
    2. Copy of your theme
    3. List of active plugins
    4. Output from [phpinfo()](http://kb.mediatemple.net/questions/764/How+can+I+create+a+phpinfo.php+page%3F#gs)
 * If you’d like to do that privately, you can e-mail them to [ian@iandunn.name](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-basic-google-maps-placemarks-map-not-loading-after-update/page/2/ian@iandunn.name?output_format=md),
   or e-mail me a link to Dropbox, etc.

 * Hi Ian,
 * like majato, removing wpautop() worked for me on our staging server. All looks
   good now with 1.9.3 so have added it to the live site so you can see the result

 * hope this helps

 * Thanks for the report. I’m still not able to reproduce the bug, and a lot of 
   users need wpautop() in order to keep paragraphs in their descriptions, so I 
   can’t just remove it.
 * I’ll have to keep working on it.

 * We also have the same problem. [http://www.gcrailway.co.uk/find-us/](http://www.gcrailway.co.uk/find-us/)
   I have tried the options above but to no avail.

 * [@tallpauluk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tallpauluk/), actually, it 
   looks like your problem is unrelated to this. You’ve got some errors in your 
   JavaScript console, and that’s probably why the map won’t load. Please start 
   a separate thread for that.

 * I’ve pushed [a second release candidate](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/bgmp-193-rc2-available?replies=2)
   that I’m hoping will fix this, but I’m not sure since I’m not able to reproduce
   the bug.
 * Can you guys please test it out and let me know if it works or not?

 * The release candidate for version 1.10 is out, and should fix this. Please let
   me know if any of you are still experiencing problems with it.
