Google Maps not showing on Contact form

petermatra

Hi I am having problems with Google Maps. All of a sudden with older version of google maps it stopped working and said it couldn't find New York. So I upgraded EVERYTHING. Joomla, Fixel, Google maps plugin, the API. I still does not work and will not show on the contact page. What is going on? It's www.petermatra.com

Thanks
Pete

Hi petermatra

The error is coming from your google map api key - you should authorize your website url on the list of allowed domains for your api key

This is the error showing on your contact page

https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/error-messages#referer-not-allowed-map-error
Your site URL to be authorized: https://yourwebsite.com/contact

Still a no go. I put the contact page in the allowed URL. Which debug software are you using to read that error?

Hi Pete,

You can use Inspect Element editor in any web browser you're using > navigate to Console tab, it will show the same error

Google says I must pay in order to use the API. Is that true? I know in the cloud platform they give you free $300.

My referrer url's are fine, my API are fine. I just don't get what else is going wrong. Am I forgetting something? There are no API restrictions.

petermatra Am I forgetting something?

This is sure since developer console is still showing the same error as showed in previous post -

Try to create a new api key and add also the geocoding api to it -

Ok I enable geocoding did it! So why has the layout changed from the original fixel? Do you know?

petermatra o why has the layout changed from the original fixel? Do you know?

You choosed in your google map plugin to show map as hybrid type , you can change it with other map type .

The entire page came together when I pressed the button 'Set center to First Position' The layout. The location. Everything. And the Geocoding API worked.
