While the plugin shows as activated, it is not functioning.

I think Piwigo 14 is not compatible with rv_maps.
When you update to 14 it shows a message that rv_maps is not supported.

There were even problems with this plugin before with version 13: #19

[davemosk]

Well, it would be good to get these problems fixed, eh!

[ClaudiaLev]

Yes, this would be fine, but I think that this plugin is not longer under maintenance and no one feels responsible. I switched to the Open Street Map-Plugin. It is not as good as rv_Maps, but it works.

Thank you for the recommendation, @ClaudiaLev - that works well! Much appreciated.
