    I just entered a new place as if a public user of the directory. The data loaded okay except for difficulties with the city name and region in Thailand but these were finally resolved. After posting the entry though I was surprised to see that the listing in Thailand was instead placed in a directory under Singapore (see the attached file that shows the directory). Also, for this as for every other entry the map on the detail page is coming out blank except for the icon because it begins so zoomed in that it appears as if the map is not working (see the other attached file showing this). The map on all the detail pages appears the same way – too zoomed in – but the mapping works fine when zoomed out or on an aggregate page. How do I fix this so the map is not so zoomed in, and shouldn’t the entries in other countries and regions have a directory structure that matches their country? In case it helps the site is equestrianasia.com – directory tab.

    I am in the admin area and looking at the new entry and see that the location ID for the Windy Equestrian new entry is Thailand-Chiang Mai-Chiang Mai, which is what I expected. Why does it enter correctly but show up differently on the user screen when the user reviews the posted entry, per the earlier attachment?

    I don’t know why exactly but your site is not checking for updates to the addons, and location manager is out of date, you can update them via FTP or you can provide me FTP details and i can try and check to see why it is not checking for updates?

    ok i found that the api url was being changed somehow, i have fixed it in out update script and i have updated your plugins and it seems to have fixed your original problem.

    FYI you should go in to GD>auto updates and refill in your details as i have removed them during testing.

    Thanks,

    Thank you since I can see that some functionality is working much better, especially addresses are now automatically filling where they can and the map is changing. However, two issues are still not addressed:
    1. the permalink continues to have Singapore in the link chain even for an entry in China (I just tried one to see how it would enter – I entered it through the wp admin area rather than from the normal director front end in case this would affect your analysis)
    2. the map on the right side of a detail page continues to show as if there is no content except the icon because it is so close in – this makes the page look as though it has an error for the map and users would not be inclined to click on the minus until it finally looks like a map.

    Hi again. The permalink seems to be working correctly now. After I exited and re-entered the admin area the permalink shows differently – or perhaps it changed from a default to the correct one upon saving. The map problem remains, however. Thank you.

    You can set the map zoom level in the map widget.

    I reset the zoom level for the map widget from 1 to 10 and there was no effect. The map still displays poorly in the right column – for both Safari and Firefox. I also tried to uncheck the auto zoom but this also did not seem to have any effect. What do I need to change and what do you recommend as the settings?
