NB you shouldn't notice anything different after installation until you visit Geocaching.com. If you already have Geocaching.com open in your browser, you will need to refresh the page for the script to take effect. If you are a Premium Member, you will also need to choose to use the Leaflet Maps API rather than Google Maps.
Remember that if you are a Premium Member, you will need to select Leaflet Maps before GME will work (use the Set Map Preferences button at the bottom of the pop-out panel on the left of the Geocaching Maps screen).
If you have previously installed other userscripts that interact with the Geocaching Map page you may also need to disable them or change the order in which they are installed, to avoid conflicts.
Once everything is working, you might want to add additional map sources.
