Google Maps error

Hello,

Just did the dev update and still get the same error ??

Let’s hope you guys can fix it soon.

Thanks for your work!!

Note: Events> Settings> Maps – Add your API
Try here if you are stuck
https://support.google.com/googleapi/answer/6158862

Add your key – create new location (as it does not pick up any previous locations)

Thankyou for the quick fix

We’re making some docs atm, but two key things:

Go here: https://console.developers.google.com/apis/

1. Under credentials, Create a BROWSER key, and you need to wait a little until it starts working. I’d suggest just to start with don’t add a referrer limit to ensure it works.

2. Under Overview, find and enable the google maps Javasctipt API.

I also kept getting errors for a few mins, it then started working.

Hello
I tried to update with the dev version but it doesn’t work, update link don’t do anything.
Any idea ?
Thanks
Yves

If you’re having trouble running the automatic Dev update, you can manually download and install the Dev version from here:

https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/events-manager/developers/

Same here:

2 Themes – both the same
no other Plugins
2 Domains

1 works with Maps
2 doesn’t work with Maps

Thanks for a great support page. Works great.

OK I went and downloaded the Dev version. Received an API key and inserted in proper place. After entering all the information, the maps works great when I create a new location or even edit a current location. However when I go to the calendar on the website the map shows up but then immediately goes gray showing this error.

Oops! Something went wrong.
This page didn’t load Google Maps correctly. See the JavaScript console for technical details.

So I decided to remove the API key and see what happens. I added more addresses in the locations and the maps come up working great. However on the website the are still grayed out with the same error.I have disabled all plugins to see if there was a problem however same results.

Any Ideas?

@btreiber I had that too, and for me it’s due to referrers if you’re adding them incorrectly, try leaving blank and see if it works, remember to give it 5-10 mins.

If anyone is having issues still, please post a link to a map on their site.

Ive been having the same problem, dev version with key and still not working. I think because the theme was also calling Google Maps API in the old way.

Anyway I got it working by putting this in functions.php

Change YOURKEYHERE with your key

function wp_qode_child_theme_enqueue_scripts() {
     wp_dequeue_script( 'google_map_api' );
     wp_deregister_script( 'google_map_api' );
     wp_enqueue_script("google_map_api", "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOURKEYHERE", array(), false, true);
}

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'wp_qode_child_theme_enqueue_scripts', 11);

Where can you insert the API code?
I don’t find it ??

I’ve tried everything from disabling custom themes and all plugins to going off maintenance mode. Nothing works. Even tried downloading a new copy and installing. I still get the map error. Looks like I’m not alone.

I also have the grey map with and without referrer

For anyone having errors, do you have the Dev version of the plugin installed? Have you added a Google Maps API Key?
