Thread: Google Maps - Working only for some ads

Google Maps - Working only for some ads

Hi,

Thats's a weird case : I recently upgrade from Classipress 3.x to 4.1.3
I've always used Advanced Custom field for Classipress.
During v3, no problem. I made last Summer the API Google upgrade (with adding bank account and so on...). Still all right.

But recently I upgraded to v4.1.3. and I just observed that the widget about Maps is not working (remains gray, and the address is displayed)... BUT not for all my ads :


About the Maps widget

I checked the Maps settings (Google and Geocoding) : All is okay, every API needed are activated. That should work.
And I guess that does work since some ads are displaying the maps and the direction in the Map widget.
=> Do you thing that is enough to validate the configuration on the Google side ?

To illustrate I took 2 ads, created at the same period (about 2 years ago) :
=> This one is working fine : https://www.pagachey.com/p/lot-de-mms/
=> This one has the map problem : https://www.pagachey.com/p/pack-de-r...-grand-format/


About the Search Module (default Classipress, top of the screen)

- Auto-completion with Google is always working
- I can identify the ads that have the maps problem by making this use case : I just need to fill in the fied "Place" (auto-completed by Google). No matter if I select a category or if I put a keyword in the field "Something" => As a result, only ads with the Maps OK will be displayed.



About a new created ad

If I create a new ad with my current configuration :
- The problem of maps is present
- The ad can not be found with the Search module ! (so just hiding the Maps as described here is not a solution for the users)


=> Would you see something about the meta data of the 2 ads that could cause the problem ?
=> I deactivated all my plugins and tested one by one : it changed nothing.

I observe that about only 10% on 700+ ads have the problem and that all my recent ads have the Map problem. It looks that until a certain date, the address format was right for CP v4 and then I changed something that made the address format not usable anymore by the Maps module.

That's very annoying... thanks for your help.

Regards,
