v3.4 – including Bosnian translation and backend usability improvements – is available

Happy new year! I am glad to be able to present you the first new release in 2013 and hope that many more (including the pro version) will follow soon 😉

One personal request: as WordPress added a new review feature for plugins hosted on wordpress.org, I kindly invite you to leave your opinion about my plugin at http://wordpress.org/support/view/plugin-reviews/leaflet-maps-marker.

If you want to keep up to date with the latest Maps Marker development, please follow @MapsMarker on twitter, on Facebook or Google+

And now let´s get into the highlights of v3.4:

Bosnian translation (bs_BA)

Thanks to Kenan Dervišević, http://dkenan.comthe plugin is now also available in Bosnian. If you installed a Bosnian version of WordPress, the language file gets loaded automatically. As always, you can also go to Settings / Misc / Language settings and change the language you would like to use within the plugin there:

default option to assign new markers to a specific layer

In Settings / Map defaults / Default values for new marker maps you can now set the default layer which new markers should be assigned to by default:

Please enter the desired layer ID into this field – if you don´t want to assign new markers to a layer, please leave 0 as default value. Thanks John Shen for this suggestion!

I already started on working on the pro version. I plan to be finished with v1.0 by March and hope to be able to stick to this plan. One new feature is already finished: support of Google Adsense for Google basemaps. Other features like marker clustering, display of routes/GPX-files, adding markers from frontend and lots more are still under development.
