Error: There was an error with the Geocoding service
-
Hello! I’m trying a first time install & usage of this plugin and have gone through all of the referenced installation steps.
While attempting to associate a location with the TAGS in my site, I enter the country as “United States” and a city & state in the location field (example: “Palo Alto, CA”). However, I receive the error of “There was an error with the Geocoding service” with no further notes/instructions on what to do.
I’ve tried to remedy the issue by getting a Google API key with the following APIs enabled:
Google Maps Geocoding API
Google Static Maps API
Google Maps Roads APIStrangely, I’ve found that if I enter certain cities in the ‘location’ field (such as “New York, NY” or “Los Angeles, CA”), then it works – but it won’t work with other cities (such as the aforementioned “Palo Alto, CA”). (If it helps define the issue, I’ve found that I’ll get the error message with NY or LA if I don’t use proper case, such as “los angeles, ca” vs. “Los Angeles, CA”.)
As a quick fix, I’ve been entering NY or LA as a city, then dragging the marker to the desired city; but it seems like there’s something wrong in general.
Any & all help is appreciated!
