    To use the map in the Contact Info Widget, you’ll need to create your own Google Maps API key, as Google now requires you to use a key for all maps. Here is how to implement this on your site:

    1. Follow the instructions here to get your own API key from Google.
    2. Once you got your API key, copy it.
    3. In your WordPress dashboard, go to Plugins > Add New.
    4. Search for Code Snippets, and install the first plugin in the Results page.
    5. Activate the plugin.
    6. Go to Snippets > Add New
    7. Enter a name, for example “Google Maps API Key for Contact Info Widget”
    8. Copy the code appearing under the Notes section on this page.
    9. Paste it into the Code box in your dashboard.
    10. Notice the 12345 number in the code you just pasted? You’ll replace that number by the Google Maps API key you created earlier.
    11. Click on “Save changes and activate”

    The Contact Info Widget map should now be displayed properly on your site. If you still experience issues, do not hesitate to contact us!
