# shortcode showing two maps

 * Created a map with html5 maps, using the free World (continents) map.
 * I copied the shortcode into a sidebar widget on my site, and it worked fine, 
   but when I tried to use the shortcode on a page, it shows two identical maps,
   one on top of the other. Any suggestions what might be causing this / how I can
   resolve it?
 * I tried refreshing the page to see if it was a one-off glitch, but no joy.
 * The page in question is: [http://www.teabreakproject.com/destinations/](http://www.teabreakproject.com/destinations/)
 * Hope you can help!

 * Hello,
    You forgot to remove the shortcode from the sidebar. Since you’re using
   the same shortcode 2 times on the page, it has a conflict. You need to create
   a second map and use 2 different shortcode.

 * Hello,
 * I have exactly the same problem!
 * I’m using a HTML5 map in the footer, which gets displayed side-wide and works
   fine. But as soon as I add another HTML5 Map to the content-area of a site it
   ends up displaying 2 identical HTML5 Maps in the content-are and no HTML5 Map
   in the footer.
    I already created and used 2 different shortcodes. Still the 
   same problem.
