Hi, I have a map in Custom Search. When nothing is found, the Google Map will display oceans. So how to display some default location i.e. Germany instead of it?

Hi Dave

You need to insert a map-marker shortcode in the [wpv-no-items-found] section of your Loop Output in place of the no items found text.

When you insert a marker using the Fields and Views button you have the option to specify an address or lat/lng coordinates directly instead of an address stored in a custom field.

Hi Nigel, thank you for the tip. I also added 1x1px image as a marker, so it´s not visible.
