Free-Version Releases
Attention: this is not the changelog for the latest stable version 4.29.1 (see related release notes)

With v3.6.5 I added a fix to display the special characters &, < and > correctly when hovering an icon on a map (and not display them as &amp; &lt; or &gt; as before). Unfortunately this fix had the side effect that if other special chars were used in the marker name, that layer maps could be broken. v3.6.6 solves this issue now.

For even more features and optimizations (see the comparision page), please use the integrated pro upgrader to start a free 30-day-trial of Leaflet Maps Marker Pro.

Pro v1.3.1 has also been released today with the following highlight:

  • new options to set text color in marker cluster circles (thanks Simon!)

Bugfixes

  • GeoJSON output for markers did not display marker name if parameter full was set to no
  • GeoJSON output could break if special characters were used in marker names
