Fancybox and gmaps4rails not working on heroku

I have a Ruby on Rails site on Heroku which uses both Fancybox for images and Gmaps4Rails for showing a map with marker. Locally everything works fine, but on Heroku both Fancybox and Gmaps4Rails don't work, here is an example: http://mygroundhops.herokuapp.com/visits/204

Because both different javascript libraries are not working, my guess would be that there is something wrong with the asset pipeline. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Solution

  • Well, it turned out that using 

    //= require_tree .

    made a mess of the order of all the javascript files. Probably the gmaps4rails files were loaded before jquery. By explicitly setting the order the issue was solved:

    //= require jquery
//= require jquery_ujs
//= require jquery.fancybox
//= require jquery.fancybox.pack
//= require bootstrap
//= require bootstrap-dropdown
//= require gmaps4rails.base
//= require gmaps4rails.googlemaps
