Maps not showing up in-game

So my map runs fine when I test it through the editor, but doesn't show up at all when I try to find it via Custom Game in WC3.

What are the possible reasons for this? I'm guessing there are some conditions my map isn't meeting.

Thanks

Did you save it into the maps folder?
By Default:
C:\Program Files\Warcraft III\Maps

The reason for this is usually the long file path or map name. Did you place the maps in several subfolders in the Maps folder?
Like C:\Program Files\Warcraft III\Maps\Download\My_maps\Best_Maps\Hero_defense\my_cool_map.w3x
There's a maximum length a file path can have but I don't know the exact number.

Yes this was the exact problem. I moved the map so the file path was shorter and it appeared and worked just fine. Thanks a lot :).
