[Resolved] Can’t zoom into markers when addresses too close

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem: I'm displaying a map with cluster markers, but I would like to show distinct markers when zoomed in.

Solution: One option is to use the cluster_max_zoom attribute on the wpv-map-render shortcode. This option can be used to break apart clusters when zoomed in past a certain level. It's in the clustering options in the map shortcode popup, or you can set it manually like this:

[wpv-map-render map_id="map-1" cluster="on" cluster_max_zoom="14"][/wpv-map-render]

You can experiment with the numeric value to see what works best for your content.

Another option is you can use the spiderfy feature to spread out markers that are in identical locations.

When I go to my map hidden link and I have a cluster of addresses that are too close I can't get it too zoom in to individual map markers when the addresses are really close. If I go to no clusters it works fine, it's like I need the cluster to break apart at an earlier map zoom level or something?
