Problem: The map marker is displayed in the correct location on the backend of my site, but the map on the front-end of the site does not show a marker.

Solution: Be sure to add the marker shortcode along with the map shortcode if using the classic editor. Both are required to display a map with a location marker.

[wpv-map-render map_id="map-1"][/wpv-map-render]
[wpv-map-marker map_id='map-1' marker_id='marker-[wpv-post-id]' marker_field='wpcf-street-address'][/wpv-map-marker]

Problem:

I have a map which is set to draggable="off" and I would like the cursor to remain a pointer when hovering over the map versus the hand / grab.

Solution:

There isn't such kind of built-in feature within Toolset Maps plugin, you can try to setup CSS codes to style the marker, for example: below document
