Place not found

Dave, it’s not clear why your business is not showing up in the Google search. If you do not have a G+ account for it, then adding one would probably help.

With a simple change to the code you can restrict the search to businesses within the UK. Edit the review-wave-gplaces-reviews/js/rw_gplaces.js file in your plugins directory. Change the following line from:

var autocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(this);

to:

var autocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(this, { componentRestrictions: {country: ‘gb’} });

Note, however, that even with this change I was not able to find your business by name with the G+ autocomplete search. I was, however, able to find it by address with or without the change; although your business information did not come up properly this way.

Same problem but address doesn’t find it either. I’ve installed a different plugin and used the same API and it works perfectly.
I’d rather be able to use your plugin to have the short-code ability but can’t seem to get it rolling.

Are you able to look up any businesses with the search field? If none will come up, then the problem could be an unrelated javascript error on your site. If other businesses will come up, however, there may be something about yours that is a bit different. If so, would you mind posting what your you business is so I can try to look it up? Thanks.

No, it doesn’t populate anything at all no matter what I type in. I’ve tried it on two different WordPress sites.
Strong Tower Fitness 1709 7th st Parkersburg WV 26101 is what I’m trying to get.

Thanks!

Please make sure you have entered a valid Google+ API key and that there are no javascript errors on the WordPress sites you are using. When I enter in your business name the plugin returns the following Place ID: ChIJb3GQCFxLSIgRDwetVc4XtEU

This shortcode should work for you:
