			<description><p>Hi, sorry for the confusion. I thought you were reacting to my post. My version is to make the map to hybrid (satellite+roads) in default with the option to switch to roadmap. If you are going for simply changing to satellite as default it goes like this:<br />
- keep default custom.js<br />
- in both script.php + script_list.php change as follows:<br />
line 78 <code>mapTypeId:&#039;roadmap&#039;,</code> to <code>mapTypeId:&#039;satellite&#039;,</code><br />
line11<br />
<pre><code>jQuery(&#039;#footer&#039;).prepend(&#039;&#60;div class=&#34;markerNav&#34; title=&#34;&#60;?php _e(&#039;Prev&#039;,&#039;themolitor&#039;);?&#62;&#34; id=&#34;prevMarker&#34;&#62;&#60;i class=&#34;fa fa-chevron-left&#34;&#62;&#60;/i&#62;&#60;/div&#62;&#60;div id=&#34;markers&#34;&#62;&#60;/div&#62;&#60;div class=&#34;markerNav&#34; title=&#34;&#60;?php _e(&#039;Next&#039;,&#039;themolitor&#039;);?&#62;&#34; id=&#34;nextMarker&#34;&#62;&#60;i class=&#34;fa fa-chevron-right&#34;&#62;&#60;/i&#62;&#60;/div&#62;&#60;?php if($toggle){ ?&#62;&#60;div id=&#34;mapTypeContainer&#34;&#62;&#60;div id=&#34;mapStyleContainer&#34;&#62;&#60;div id=&#34;mapStyle&#34; class=&#34;satellite&#34;&#62;&#60;/div&#62;&#60;/div&#62;&#60;div id=&#34;mapType&#34; title=&#34;&#60;?php _e(&#039;Map Type&#039;,&#039;themolitor&#039;);?&#62;&#34; class=&#34;satellite&#34;&#62;&#60;/div&#62;&#60;/div&#62;&#60;?php } ?&#62;&#039;);</code></pre>
<p>to<br />
<pre><code>jQuery(&#039;#footer&#039;).prepend(&#039;&#60;div class=&#34;markerNav&#34; title=&#34;&#60;?php _e(&#039;Prev&#039;,&#039;themolitor&#039;);?&#62;&#34; id=&#34;prevMarker&#34;&#62;&#60;i class=&#34;fa fa-chevron-left&#34;&#62;&#60;/i&#62;&#60;/div&#62;&#60;div id=&#34;markers&#34;&#62;&#60;/div&#62;&#60;div class=&#34;markerNav&#34; title=&#34;&#60;?php _e(&#039;Next&#039;,&#039;themolitor&#039;);?&#62;&#34; id=&#34;nextMarker&#34;&#62;&#60;i class=&#34;fa fa-chevron-right&#34;&#62;&#60;/i&#62;&#60;/div&#62;&#60;?php if($toggle){ ?&#62;&#60;div id=&#34;mapTypeContainer&#34;&#62;&#60;div id=&#34;mapStyleContainer&#34;&#62;&#60;div id=&#34;mapStyle&#34; class=&#34;roadmap&#34;&#62;&#60;/div&#62;&#60;/div&#62;&#60;div id=&#34;mapType&#34; title=&#34;&#60;?php _e(&#039;Map Type&#039;,&#039;themolitor&#039;);?&#62;&#34; class=&#34;roadmap&#34;&#62;&#60;/div&#62;&#60;/div&#62;&#60;?php } ?&#62;&#039;);</code></pre>
<p>It is important to change it in both files. This worked well for me. So if there is any trouble with this version someone more competent will have to take over. ;)<br />
Take care<br />

			<description><p>I have it working! </p>
<p>Strangely, for me anyway I only had to change the custom.js files? I replaced the other 2 with the originals that were downloaded with the theme. Changed the custom.js as per Shadowalkers instructions, uploaded it and it now works. </p>
<p>Thanks to both of you:-)</p>

			<description><p>Just to add, I have copied exactly as you mentioned Shadowalker to see if hybrid would work but I am still seeing satellite and the toggle will not work. </p>
<p>I will switch back. Any other suggestions?</p>

<p>Sadly no, still not working. I think I have done it right although I am somewhat confused with the mention of 'hybrid' too.</p>

			<description><p>In my original post, you will find the exact snippet of code to replace and what to replace it with. As well as the exact changes to script and script_list. Simply changing all instances of satellite to roadmap will not work! It gives the exact error you are describing.

			<description><p>Hello and thanks for the reply. </p>
<p>Not really sure what needs to be changed in the custom.js file. I changed 'all' instances of the satellite to roadmap and it didn't work. What it did do was stop me from using the actual switch on the page, the small map icon appears but the switch wouldn't move. </p>
<p>Thanks </p>

			<description><p>You have to make changes to all three files (custom.js, script.php and script_list.php) for the change to work correctly. And I tested them only on the newest version of the theme.

			<description><p>To use the "satellite" view by default for the main map, do the following...</p>
<ol>
<li>Open "script.php"</li>
<li>On line 11, change all instances of <code>class=&#34;satellite&#34;</code> to <code>class=&#34;roadmap&#34;</code></li>
<li>On line 78, change <code>mapTypeId:&#039;roadmap&#039;</code> to <code>mapTypeId:&#039;satellite&#039;</code></li>
<li>Save file.</li>
</ol>
<p>If this helped, PLEASE don't forget to rate the theme on your downloads page on ThemeForest.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
