We just released v4.31.2 which is a maintenance release mainly for a bug which could stop Google geocoding to work properly. Version 4.31.2 fixes this issue on all affected instances and also adds an important optimization for faster map loading.

An updated to the latest version is – as always – highly recommended. If you access to updates and support has expired, please click here for more information on how to optionally renew your access. Although your license key never expires, unless you renew your access to updates and support, you will not be able to get plugin updates including new features, optimizations, bug and security fixes, translations updates as well as access to our helpdesk with dedicated 1:1 support. Therefore we always recommend updating to the latest version of Maps Marker Pro.
