Markers showing up as seperate maps not one map with multiple markers

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

Problem: I created a View that includes a Map and several Markers, but instead of all the Markers showing on one Map they are all showing on separate Maps. I want one Map with all the Markers.

Solution: Make sure the wpv-render-map shortcode is not placed in between the wpv-loop tags in the Loop Output editor.

Hello,

We are currently working on creating a map with multiple markers. We created the view as per the instructions in the wiki but once the view is embedded within the page, each marker appears as a separate map instead of the same map with multiple markers. Can you please advise why this would be the case?

Thanks in advance

Most likely the problem is the map shortcode is placed inside the same wpv-loop tags as the marker shortcode. This results in multiple maps being rendered on the page. Instead, move the map shortcode just above the wpv-loop tags, or completely outside the View. If this does not resolve the problem, please copy + paste the code from your View's Loop Output editor here for me to review.

Hello Christian,

Here is the code to verify.

[wpv-layout-start]
[wpv-items-found]

<wpv-loop>
[wpv-map-render map_id="map-4" map_width="100%" map_height="800" cluster="on" spiderfy="on" cluster_min_size="2" cluster_grid_size="60"][/wpv-map-render]
[wpv-map-marker map_id="map-4" marker_id="marker-[wpv-post-id]" marker_field="wpcf-frp-address"][/wpv-map-marker]
</wpv-loop>

[/wpv-items-found]
[wpv-no-items-found]
[wpml-string context="wpv-views"]No items found[/wpml-string]
[/wpv-no-items-found]
[wpv-layout-end]

Okay thanks, as I suspected the wpv-map-render shortcode is inside the wpv-loop tags. You should move the wpv-map-render shortcode to be outside of the wpv-loop tags. Anything inside the wpv-loop tags will be repeated for each result in the View.
