Hello,

You can try to fix it the following way:

- open file libs/jquery/jquery.flmap.js;
- go to function setMarkers()
- find this code:



var icon = base.options.alphabetMarkers ? 'http://www.google.com/mapfiles/marker'+base.letters[i]+'.png' : null;


and change it to:



var icon = 'http://your_domain.com/plugins/browse_map/markers/marker.png';

Hi,

I'm using this for custom marker:

Hello,




var icon = 'http://your_domain.com/plugins/browse_map/markers/marker.png';


However, is there anyway that I can resize the marker? My marker img has site 128x128px, but i would like to shrink it to 30x30px. This way the marker will still look nice on retina display.

icon.width = '30';
icon.height = '30';
