[Plugin: Basic Google Maps Placemarks] Errors everywhere a location is required

  • Really wanted to use this plugin, but can’t seem to get it working. Problems happen when:
    – On the plugin settings page , changing the Map Center Address results in “Error” appearing in the latitude & longitude box
    – Adding a new placemark, adding placemark address, pushing “update” and getting this error:
    That address couldn’t be geocoded, please make sure that it’s correct.
    That address couldn’t be geocoded, please make sure that it’s correct.
    (Yes, duplicated)

    The map itself is finally showing up on the site after redoing the theme, which I was pretty excited about, but only the zoom tools appear, “terms of use” link and Google logo in left bottom corner. Everything else is just a grey box.

    It’s essentially the same as this problem: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/plugin-basic-google-maps-placemarks-cant-get-map-center-adress?replies=8

    – I tried all those solution. I deleted the plugin and reinstalled it a few times, recoded my theme, tried every variation of putting an address in – by coordinates, by just the city name, by adding the state abbreviation, full state name, full address, partial address. I used that map link that was in the comments – everything. I also checked for those server problems. It wasn’t any of those.

    I’d prefer to not put the site url in the forums, but I’d be happy to give privately.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    @mikereinten – Get anywhere with it? I had to use the other plugin because I’m all out of time on this project, but it’s not so great for my purposes and the developers pretty much abandoned it, so no support is available. Would really prefer to use this one.

    @scribblessd – I quickly tried the other plugin, but it failed to work as well. For now I will drop this, because I have more important things to do.

    I might add it in the future, we’ll see ??

    Thank you for the idea though!

    Version 1.6.1 has more informative error messages to help troubleshoot this.
