I recently upgraded Hot spots to the latest version - 6.0.11.

I have discovered one type of map view that no longer works. When I add a map using Joomla's Menu system - and use Map View as Menu Item Type the map isn't being centered correctly.

In the Settings Override for the map view I set the center of the map using latitude and longitude. For example:
mapStartPosition=31.6854166, -91.24765

This is for a map that displays at:
https://www.natcheztracetravel.com/natchez-trace-mississippi/lorman-natchez-ms/map.html
The lat/lng I am using is a little bit northeast of Natchez, Mississippi.

The map that is displayed is centered around Tupelo, MS which is the mid-point of all the map locations on the site. I guess this is the default map center location that I am trying to override.

The settings override worked until I upgraded hot spots.

Did something change?
