    That link doesn’t work, please double check it.

    In any case, what you can do :

    1) adding the Marker Cluster add-on
    2) Avoid ticking all categories by default
    3) Upgrade server

    Hope this helps,

    Thanks

    I added the Marker Cluster (activated once again)

    With over 20k in listing I used the server side vs. client setting

    Latest largest dedicated managed server already with quality hosting company.

    What do you mean and where do I view “Avoid ticking all categories by default” ?

    Thank you

    With 20k listings is definitely better to use server side clustering.

    What do you mean and where do I view “Avoid ticking all categories by default” ?

    Avoid loading all markers of all listings from all locations at once. If it’s not fundamental to show them all, that will speed up the map quite a bit.

    If you share a link and credentials we’ll have a look

    Let us know,

    I am going to kill the site after exporting ctp lisings. I am starting from scratch! This time no multisite and no other plugins except for gravity forms for contact forms.

    I still do not understand what is mean by “Avoid loading all markers of all listings from all locations at once. If it’s not fundamental to show them all, that will speed up the map quite a bit.”

    How do we adjust or where are the “settings” to avoid loading all markers of all listing please?

    Regards,

    Hi Steve, I get invalid username.

    What RAM does the server have? 20K listings should not be an issue with a good dedicated server.
    You can also tick GD > Design > Map tab > Enable map cache

    Thanks

    Here is what I did. I terminated the site. Started from scratch and reinstalled a GD. Re-imported and 100% success! Yippie.

    I also installed the “mime” plugin as suggested due to array error.

    Server is huge! With some 12 sites the load is at some 1%.. it does not even breath hard when things are running smootyly. I believe they have RAM set to 512mb or 1024mb.

    It was some conflict with either Autoptimize, W3Cache, or WPMU plugs such at Pro Sites.. Also, this time around the nixed the multisite..

    Thank you for your services.. much appreciated. I will learn to slow it down and backup.. then install and test one plugin at at time someday! lol
