Google Maps problem after 3.1 upgrade

Hi there I have a Google Maps plugin problem.

I updated to Osclass 3.1 and then switched the location data (region & city) to drop-down instead of autocomplete using these instructions: http://doc.osclass.org/Changing_between_drop-down_and_autocomplete_for_locations . Shortly after this, the Google Maps plugin stopped displaying accurate information. All ads posted after the change now have a map showing the default 37.4419, -122.1419 Palo Alto, CA latitude and longitude from the the plugin, instead of the correct local information.

You can see it here:

The ads posted before the osclass 3.1 update and the change to dropdown data still show properly like this:

Can someone please suggest what I should do to fix this?

Thanks very much.

Just filling white space here.
I have no correct solution but when I'm blank (Most of the time) I go for the simple so try this.
Disable an ad that shows in-correct location, then re-enable it or if you have the AMM plugin try reseting publish date.
 
Good luck.

Thanks,

I just checked again and the ads are all displaying the correct google map information, even the ones with the wrong information are now showing correctly. I did nothing so I don't know how this fixed itself. If the problem repeats itself I'll update.

Thanks for the help.

I had nothing but problems with version 3.1. The search kept breaking and so did the region links in the side bar.

And yes, the Google maps plugin pointed to Palo Alto, CA for every listing.

I ended up running version 2.4.1 instead and everything's fine now...

except, after trying to install the import ads plugin, my admin dashboard is totally blank. Just a gray page... Grrr.................

Any ideas on that?

@Anti-NWO
Filling more white space ( blue really) but likely because you down-graded so far back that the plugin is not supported. Most plugins were written after your Osclass version. Try updating to Osclass 3.0.2.
