    I have created an API key and enabled the civics API and Google Maps API. I was initially getting “Address or zip code not found. Please try again..” message and a JS console log that indicated I was out of requests, so I created a billing account and set up a sensible request limit. Now I am still getting the message “Address or zip code not found. Please try again..” But I’m not getting any errors logged to the console. Any ideas?

    Hello @chaleybgis,

    I just checked your page and it is working for me. It might have just taken some time for Google to let the API start working.

    Please let me know if you have any additional issues. Good luck with your podcast!

    Whaddya know. A little bit of patience and it’s working just fine. Thank you for the prompt response.

    Quick Q if you don’t mind. I notice that “Contact Form” and “Email” are both options for output, but I’m not seeing any output for these fields. What is Contact Form intended to do? And do you know if emails not showing is due the data not being there, or possibly a bug?

    Thanks for this plugin. The world needs it.

    Glad it’s working now ??

    As for your questions about “contact form” and “email”… Some years ago, most congress people stopped using public email addresses because of spam and opted, in stead, for contact forms on their websites where they would receive “human only” emails. Both these fields are still part of the Congress information in the database that the API connects to. We chose to leave them as options so when these fields have entries they will show on your results. If these fields are not showing in your results It’s because there is no information in the fields. We have no control over the information in the database as that is controlled by Google.

    I’m glad our little passion project is appreciated ??
