    I am not seeing a way to set the zoom level in the Map Sidebar Widget, where can I find or set the zoom level for the sidebar Map widget?

    Thanks

    Thanks Guust, I called myself as having looked there but totally missed it. I am using OSM. Changing the zoom level doesn’t seem to affect the map zoom in the sidebar. Any suggestions?

    That sounds like a caching issue then.
    Post the URL of the page in question, and your WP admin details in a private reply and we’ll have a look at your settings if you like.

    Thanks

    I can see it is not zooming as expected.
    I’ll get the developers to have a closer look.
    Thanks

    This is strange. I added a new listing and the map zoom looks perfect, but still not right on the original page that had the issue.

    Hello There,

    You have ticked option “Use post map zoom and type?” in GD Map widget, so on detail page it applies the zoom level saved with post listing.
    Unpick that option or set desired zoom level on map and save listing.

    Regards,
    Kiran

    Kiran,

    You nailed it. That was the issue. I unchecked “Use post map zoom and type?” and it works now perfectly.

    But just to clarify your next sentence “on detail page it applies the zoom level saved with post listing”…. I am not seeing any settings on the post listing edit page. Might be nice to know about this setting. Where would I find this setting?

    Thanks!!

    See Places > Custom fields > Address > Use user zoom level.
    When a listing is saved, the zoom level of the map is saved too.

    Thanks
