Since v3.1, which introduced conditional javascript loading into the footer as default, I have been struggeling with bug reports that users maps don´t show up anymore. First I thought this is only due to lacking wp_footer()-template tag in their theme, but although I released several minor updates, the problem still existed and I couldn´t reproduce this on my server.
Thanks to Norman and Evan, who granted me admin access to their sites, I could finally find out whats wrong: the popular Jetpack plugin (>3 million downloads) breaks my plugin as it duplicates javascript output in the footer. I opened a support ticket and hope someone from automaticc will take a look at it.
Anyway – as I can´t wait for an update from them, I implemented a workaround with the help of John Cotton – many thanks! So this means that v3.2.5 now can be used out-of-the-box again without Jetpack users having to change the option “where to include javascripts” to header+inline.
In case you changed this option too, I´d recommend changing it back to footer, as afterwards javascript files will only be included if there is a shortcode on your page – resulting in better performance of your site.
If the message “loading map – please wait…” exists anyway, please first check if your template uses wp_footer();-template tag – if yes, please follow the steps from the readme-first post in the support forum, as this could be a conflict with another plugin.
