I was having trouble with a map I created before. Every time I tried to open the file, it crashed my Dreamweaver. I slowly rebuilt the map one address at a time and found that it crashed when I got to 25. The page itself has no problems online, I just can't open it in Dreamweaver to edit it.

Here's a link to a version that has more than 25 addresses:

Here's the one I edited and stopped at 25:

I know there is a limitation if you're using addresses, but all my map points have Longitude/Latitude.

Hello Ann.

If you are receiving constantly DW crashes, please try to clear your DW cache file:

No, it's still crashing, even after I trashed the cache file. It only happens on pages that have more than 25 addresses on the map. So that was my original questions. Is there a limit to how many addresses I can list on one map?

Hello Ann.

There aren't any limitations. I am unable to recreate that error you received so far i tested.
Can you specify your OS & DW versions ?

Hello Ann.

I am unable to recreate your issue, using the exact same configuration here. I will suggest the following troubleshooting:

1.) Download fresh copy of the product from our page and install it in EM & DW.
2.) Clear your Dreamweaver cache.
3.) Try to place again the extension on the page.

If the problem still exists , probably your dreamweaver corrupts the installation.

Regards:Vulcho.

Well, I tried downloading a fresh copy of the Google Maps extension, clear my Dreamweaver cache and then rebuild the map. But as soon as I added the 25th address, it shut down the program.

Is there anything I can do at this point? Do I have to split it into two maps? I need to fix a couple of issues with the original map, but I'm stuck.

The question of whether there's a limit to the number of addresses you can put on one map is a pertinent one in the realm of digital cartography. While there may not be a strict numerical limit, practical constraints such as map readability, processing power, and user experience often come into play. Advanced mapping platforms like Google Maps or MapQuest can handle a significant number of addresses, but excessively large datasets might lead to performance issues or cluttered visual representations. However, utilizing efficient mapping techniques and technologies can mitigate these challenges. For those seeking to integrate numerous addresses seamlessly into maps, resources such as https://www.searchusapeople.com offer valuable insights and tools for optimizing mapping endeavors.
