SiteOrigin Google Maps Widget API

  • Hi labres,

    Alex from SiteOrigin here. ??

    That error basically means that the domain that the API key is being used on hasn’t been authorised to use it. Please refer to this help doc (?https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/get-api-key#registering-authorized-urls) for more information and steps to authorise your domain to use the API key.

    Alex, I visited the help doc link on registering authorized urls. That reference seems to be for Authentication for Google Maps APIs Premium Plan customers and is for Client IDs, not API keys. So do have to be on the Premium Plan to use the SiteOrigin Google Maps Widget? Shouldn’t I be able to use the Standard API? The key I have through the Standard API allows designating http referrers (web sites), but that is optional.
    Any further help would be much appreciated.

    Hi Labres,

    Oh sorry. My mistake – I posted that reply in the wrong thread. Very sorry about that! To clarify, you do not need a paid Google Maps API key to use our widget.

    Based on your error message it sounds like there’s been a setting adjustment that prevents the project you’re using to use the Google Maps API – I cannot tell you what setting as I’m unsure of your settings. I would recommend either checking over your project settings or (what I would recommend, ) creating a new project.

    I have created a new project several times, but google map still doesn’t display. The map icon that results delivers the same message as in the original post above. The Chrome Developer Tools Console shows “Google Maps API warning: NoApiKeys https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/error-messages#no-api-keys”. But “console.developers.google.com” shows the API Key to be valid.

    I activated WP Google Maps plugin to compare results and it works fine when using the same API Key as for the SiteOrigin Google Maps Widget, displaying a Google Map. I would not expect to have to do something special with the SiteOrigin Google Maps Widget if another Google Maps plugin works using the same API Key.

    So any further help with the SiteOrigin Google Maps Widget would be much appreciated.
