Sort Markers List

Hi,

the option to sort the list of markers can also be found in the free version. Navigate to settings / Map defaults / “List of markers settings” where you will find the option “Order list of markers by”
which you need to change to “marker name”

best,

Robert

Thanks Robert,

When I follow your instructions exactly and try to save I get this error …

“Forbidden

You don’t have permission to access /wp-admin/options.php on this server.”

Any suggestions?

Just for interest I changed the permissions on that options.php to 777 and tried again, same error.

Tried in a different browser, same thing. Both browsers (FF then GC) in safe mode, no addons.

Cheers.

Sounds like a general permission issue or a plugin conflict. Try to temporarily disable all other plugins to verify if this makes a difference.
If this does not help, please try the other approaches from https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-fix-the-403-forbidden-error-in-wordpress/

Thanks Robert,

It was actually caused by mod_security which saw a variable in the plugin as a threat for some reason. Saving any setting change generated the same error. It was just the same on about 8 other sites with the same hosts. The host kindly added an exclude for the variable that was causing the issue and has propagated across all of their servers.

By the way, ever since I installed the plugin I see this warning hundreds of times down the marker config pages in the backend …

Warning: count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable in /home/xxxxxxxxx/xxxxxxxx/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/leaflet-maps-marker/leaflet-marker.php on line 169

Any thoughts please?

Thanks for your help and for a really good plugin that we will use to replace Google Maps on dozens of sites.

Cheers,

Tim

Hi Tim,

glad to hear that you found the issue and that your hoster could fix the mod_security config.

Regarding the warning: this is due to PHP 7.2, but has no effects – will check if this can be fixed.

Also great to hear that you use our plugin on dozens of sites, anyway please also be aware that the gap between our free and pro version is getting larger and larger, as due to lack of ressources we decided to focus on developing our pro version with priority – which is faster, has more features and is more actively maintained. You can give it a try by starting a free 30 days trial.
best,

Robert

Thanks.

I completely understand why you would focus on the Pro version and I’m sure it’s worth purchasing. In future, when we need a more advanced map we will definitely recommend buying it to our clients.

Cheers,

Tim

Much appreciated!
FYI: just found and fixed the warning count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable... – will be included in the next release.
