So in wordpress have a set of images that pull in, but i want to add a png that will act as a shadow on them. It currently is not adding the shadow to my markers.
Here is my code below. Does anyone see the bug? Maps work fine its just now adding shadows
<?php
get_header();
get_template_part('ts-themes/whatspecies/header-whatspecies');
?>
<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?v=3.exp&sensor=false"></script>
<script>
jQuery(document).ready(function () {
var LocationData = [
<?php
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'post',
'posts_per_page' => 200
);
$the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) :
$a=0;
while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post();
$location = get_post_meta(get_the_id(),'location',true);
if(!empty($location)){
$lat = $location['map_lat'];
$long = $location['map_long'];
$cat =get_the_category( get_the_ID() );
$icon = site_url().'/wp-content/themes/themesmith/ts-themes/whatspecies/icons/map/'.$cat[0]->category_nicename.'.png';
echo '['.$lat.','.$long.',"<a href='.get_permalink().'>'.get_the_title().'</a>","'.$icon.'"],';
}
endwhile;
wp_reset_query();
endif;
?>
];
var map =
new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map-canvas'));
var bounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds();
var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow();
var shadow = {
url: 'http://whatspecies.beresponsive.net/wp-content/themes/themesmith/ts-themes/whatspecies/icons/map/marker-shadow.png',
size: new google.maps.Size(64, 64),
origin: new google.maps.Point(0,0),
anchor: new google.maps.Point(0, 64)
};
for (var i in LocationData)
{
var p = LocationData[i];
var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(p[0], p[1]);
bounds.extend(latlng);
var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
position: latlng,
map: map,
icon:p[3],
title: p[2],
shadow: shadow
});
google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() {
infowindow.setContent(this.title);
infowindow.open(map, this);
});
}
map.fitBounds(bounds);
});
</script>

Marker shadows are no longer supported in version 3.14 of the Google Maps JavaScript API.
