All my observations are currently from Peru. When I view my observations online (Mac mini computer 2018) it shows a pop up on the map for each observation I hover over except this doesn’t happen when I hover over an observation from Parque Naciónal Manu. There are red dots on the map for all the different locations where I have observations except Manu. When I go into a Manu observation then the location is shown clearly on the map within the observation

this is more of a data problem than a problem with the way the system is working.

the positional accuracy values for these observations is very large (>36km). so the system treats these as mappable=false, and they will not appear on the map.

see https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/my-observation-doesnt-appear-on-the-map/32724/4 for more information. probably in your case, you’re manually selecting the entire park as the location, and because this is a large park, you end up with a large positional accuracy value. so ideally, you would want to narrow down your location more.
