Release list
v2.3.3 — Fix layer stacking + smooth locked pan/zoom
Follow-ups to the crisp-pin-layer work in v2.3.2.
Fixed
- Old map views stacking: switching between map views (Regional / Town / Wide) left the previous view's pins, lines, and labels layered on top of the new one. The old vector layer is now removed on switch.
- Disorienting drag on mobile: while dragging, the map image and the pins/lines now move together as one smooth motion (they were desyncing and lagging behind), then re-render razor-sharp the instant you release.
- Floaty zoom: the pins now stay locked to the map through the entire zoom instead of drifting for a moment and snapping into place.
Verified: exactly one pin layer after repeated map switches; pin tips stay within ~1px of their map location during a drag, after release, and immediately after an off-center zoom.
v2.3.2 — Crisp pins/lines/labels at any zoom
Fixes the pins, connector lines, and labels going blurry as soon as you zoomed in.
What changed
- The map markers are now drawn on a separate vector layer that is not scaled together with the raster map image. They re-render at native resolution at every zoom level, so they stay razor-sharp. Only the background map image softens when magnified (unavoidable for a raster image) — the pins/lines/labels on top of it no longer do.
- Connector lines are now a crisp, constant-weight hairline at every zoom instead of a faint sub-pixel line.
Pin-to-location alignment verified to stay within ~1px of target even at 5× zoom.
Wayfinder Map 2.3.1
- Bigger, readable labels: location and hotel labels were too small relative to the markers (on desktop and mobile) — they're now a comfortable size.
- Bigger markers on mobile for easier tapping.
- Fixed the mobile switcher & Filter bars being hard to read — they were picking up your (light) info-panel color as their background, hiding the text. They now use a fixed dark bar so the text stays legible.
Wayfinder Map 2.3.0 — Mobile pass
Makes the map much better on phones:
- Cleaner mobile layout: the map switcher moves to a bar above the map and the category filter to a bar below it, so the map itself isn't crowded by overlays.
- Readable markers everywhere: pins, the hotel marker, and labels now render at a consistent, readable size on any screen — they were coming out tiny on mobile — and still stay a constant size as you zoom.
- Crisper zoom on mobile: the auto zoom-to-fill is capped on narrow screens so a wide map image doesn't get over-magnified and blurry.
On desktop everything looks the same as before (the switcher/legend stay as on-map overlays, including in fullscreen).
Wayfinder Map 2.2.1
The map's starting (cover-fit) view now centers on the currently-selected location instead of the image center — so the open pin is always in view rather than possibly cropped off to the side. Deep links and list clicks also pan the map to the location.
Wayfinder Map 2.2.0
Map interaction polish:
- Markers stay a constant size while you zoom — pins, labels, and the hotel marker no longer balloon as you zoom in.
- Maps start zoomed to fill the panel (cover-fit), so a wide/short map image no longer sits letterboxed with empty space above and below — including in fullscreen. You can still zoom back out to see the whole image.
- New per-pin Label position option (Above / Below / Left / Right) on the Map Point editor.
Wayfinder Map 2.1.0
Map UI refinements based on testing:
- Switcher moved to the top-left, and the separate filter chip row is gone (it was overlapping the switcher).
- Filtering now lives in the legend — it shows up to 5 categories as a colour key, with a Filter dropdown for the full list.
- New eye button to hide/show the on-map overlays (switcher, legend, info, compass) for a clean view of the map.
Wayfinder Map 2.0.0 — Multiple Maps
Multiple maps + switcher
You can now run several maps in one embed, with a switcher bar to flip between them.
- Maps are their own thing. Create them under Wayfinder Map → Maps. Each map has its own background image, hotel pin, and display toggles.
- Locations can live on several maps at once, each with its own position — set on the Map Point under "Maps & Positions".
- Shared look: colors, fonts, and marker size stay global (Map Settings); image / hotel / toggles are per-map.
- Switcher bar appears above the map when there's more than one map (hidden if just one). Switching is instant.
- New
[wayfinder_map map="your-map-slug"]to embed one specific map without the switcher. - Deep links and the list view automatically switch to the map that contains the location.
⚠️ Automatic migration (one-time)
On update, your existing map is wrapped into "Map 1" and all your current pins are assigned to it — automatically. Nothing to redo; your live map keeps working. Back up your database before updating, as with any major change.
Wayfinder Map 1.7.1
Fixes deep-link buttons so they re-open and re-scroll to their location on every click — previously, clicking a link a second time did nothing if the page was already on that link's hash.
Wayfinder Map 1.7.0
Deep links to specific locations.
- Every Map Point now has a shareable link like
your-page/#loc-pin-slug. Open it (or link to it from a button/text anywhere) and the map scrolls into view and opens that location automatically — even overriding an active category filter so the pin is visible. - The Map Point editor shows a Shareable link with a Copy button.
- Set your Map page URL under Map Settings → Links so those links are complete, copy-paste URLs.
