 * Hi there.
 * Always happy to help 🙂
 * Are you referring the the default custom marker set in the ‘Advanced Settings’
   tab, or the custom marker that is specific to each marker you add?

 * I’d like to know how to do this as well. In my case, I’ve assigned a marker to
   a specific listing within a map.

 * Hi [@gocreative](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gocreative/)
 * Just to confirm, would you like to reset your custom marker? This can be done
   by going to ‘Maps’ -> ‘Edit’ -> ‘Advanced’ and resetting it there.

 * No, I have edited a specific location (one of the pins on my map) and changed
   the map marker for that pin only — NOT the entire map.

 * Hi there
 * You can then edit that marker and remove the URL to the custom marker – this 
   will revert it back to the original red pin. Does this help?

 * There’s no field which shows the URL of the custom marker. That’s what I’ve been
   looking for all along but it doesn’t exist.

 * No, I’m not a Pro user. But are you saying that in the free version, once you’ve
   set a custom marker image for one of the pins on a map, it’s impossible to remove
   it? I ended up having to save a copy of the default pin image from the plugin
   folder, upload that via Media Library in WordPress, and assign it as the custom
   image for the marker in question. So that’s fine now, but I’m still not seeing
   any markers/pins appear on my map whatsoever.

 * Hi [@gocreative](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gocreative/)
 * The marker will use the ‘default’ marker at the time and assign that icon to 
   that marker – changing this will require you removing the marker and then adding
   it again with the default marker being changed as ‘advanced markers’ are a Pro
   only feature.
 * Is [http://northstarsprayers.com.au/stockists/](http://northstarsprayers.com.au/stockists/)
   the only site you’re experiencing issues on? Or another site that you can send
   me a link to as well?

 * OK, thanks for clarifying. And yes, that’s the site with the issue. I’m not aware
   of any others as I have avoided upgrading the plugin on other sites that use 
   it. This particular site uses the Enfold theme, but there’s never been a problem
   before the upgrade to version 6.3.18.

 * Actually, I’ve just realised that this site is actually using the Pro add-on.
   Also just confirming that I have already been through all of the troubleshooting
   steps you provided on your website (e.g. deactivating/reactivating, checking 
   the XML folder path exists, etc).
