Grey box and no map or GPX track shows [WP 3.8.4 GPX 3.5]

No, the same trick didn’t work for that plugin. It’s puzzling because it is working on a localhost installation, but went off at the same time on site.

With the uploads folders downloaded locally and the files checked out into TextWrangler the grep search is <trk>(?s).+<trkseg>

Ok well the workaround has ceased to work, except for the few I did yesterday which continue to work. This is ridiculous.

It was persistent cacheing. The edited files are all working now. This needs a proper fix.

Hi, I’m having the same issue running the Pro version of this plugin. All my Maps went grey today. If this is a google issues, why does the plugin not work when I switch a different base map like OSM? IS the author looking at a fix?

Example of my page https://www.bikepirate.com/banff-legacy-trail/

Where is your server? Ours is in the US although we are in Scotland. I wonder where google is being accessed. The maps on the developers site all work and I presume everything for them is in Germany.
In your case I presume some google service is parsing the gpx file even though you are using an OSM base map, but that’s just a guess. However the name of the plugin would suggest so. Anyway try the workaround.

Hi there, I’m having the same issue and I’m pretty sure that my German hoster has his servers in Germany. I’m not a 100% sure but I think my maps stopped working right when my site got updated to WordPress 4.0.1

Yes I was wondering if the WP update did something. Ours stopped working the same day. I have no way of knowing or finding out.

No.
Perhaps you should add your voice to the developer’s blog https://www.atlsoft.de/wordpress-map-plugin/#tabs1-engl

Try the workaround mentioned above.

update 4.0.1 and same issue ??

As long as the developer does not fix the error you have to use the method that I gave earlier.

Strange thing is the map with a gpx trace on the developer’s page https://www.atlsoft.de/wordpress-map-plugin/#tabs1-engl still works and it has content between the <trk> and <trkseg> https://www.atlsoft.de/programmierung/wp-content/uploads/Marker-Manager.gpx
I’ve tried swapping bits back and forth from the gpx file with one of our gpx files but can’t isolate the offending parts, though I didn’t have time to do it properly.

The plugin definitely uses Google services to build the map even if you only use OSM

@spamcop, unfortunately this string <trk> [\ r | \ n] * [] * <trkseg> does not work for me, not match is found ?? Is the spelling correct? I’d hate to alter almost 100 gpx files in my blog manually.

The developer has asked me to do the following in my Pro version of this plugin. It has solved my problem and everything is running again as it should – I have 400 plus maps with overlays using GPX and they are once again displaying/loading. Hope this works for you.

Please comment out the following lines as shown in the file gmap_v3_gpx_overlay.js found in your plugins directory, under google-maps-gpx-viewer and in the js folder.

Line 137: // strokeOpacity: 1.0,
Line 140: // fillOpacity: map.polies[map.aktPoly].strokeOpacity,

Good luck!

That works. Wonder why? Why is the developer not communicating with us non-pro users?
