Free v3.9.2 with compatibility fixes (RTL support) is available

This release focuses on improving support for RTL (right-to-left) languages as well as fixing some compatibility issues.

For even more features and optimizations (see the comparision page), please use the integrated pro upgrader to start a free 30-day-trial of Maps Marker Pro.

Pro v1.9 has also been released today with the following highlights:

geolocation support: show and follow your location when viewing maps
search function for layerlist on marker edit page

Now let´s get to the highlights of v3.9.2:

support for using WMTS servers as custom overlays

Thanks to feedback from dimizu you now also can configure WMTS/tile servers as custom overlays. Just navigate to Settings / Overlays and add the endpoint of your tile server into the field “Tiles URL” (with previous versions this did not work 100%, especially if the tiles url used special chars like &).

optimized RTL (right-to-left) language support

With pro v1.9 I optimized the support for RTL (right-to-left) languages and fixed an issue with settings page, where settings could not be changed properly if RTL was active:

rtl-support

Other changes and optimizations

compatibility check for plugin “WP External Links” which can cause maps to break
updated jQuery select2 addon to v3.5.1
added backticks (`) around column and table names in all SQL statements to prevent collisions with reserved words

Bugfixes

some settings were not selectable when RTL (right-to-left) language support was active
custom overlays and custom basemaps with & and {} chars in URLs were broken
potential XSS security issue on fullscreen maps (discovered by https://security.dxw.com/)
default marker icon was not used for maps created with shortcodes directly (thx Bernd!)
broken layer maps/plugin installations on mySQL instances using clustering as reserved word (thx Tim!)
