    Hi ! I installed your plugin and it’s great ! I just don’t understand what I have to do to limit the quotas. There is a bunch of different numbers in the console: reviews widget load per day ? per 100 seconds ? per 100 seconds per user ? Or Premium plan web service requests ? Or Premium plan Javascript API requests ? I’m totally lost ! Regards. Sybil.

    @sybilrondeau Thanks for getting in touch about this.

    In the Quotas admin (select: Places API), I recommend leaving everything as its default settings. Just expand the “Requests” and set the daily limit to 100 (or 200 if you have many websites). This will keep you below the billable threshold. You don’t need to edit anything else.

    I recommend always setting the restrictions for your various APIs (IP address for Places) to avoid other people from stealing your allowance.

    Thank you for answering me so quickly !
    Yes I already restricted the key with IP address.

    In the quotas admin, I select Places API but there is 4 differents things here : Reviews widget loads (2 000 000 per day), Premium plan web service requests (unlimited), Premium plan Javascript API requests (unlimited) and Requests (unlimited). So is it the first one I need to modify to 100 ?

    @sybilrondeau Yes, the last one: Requests. Change from unlimited to 100. That’s all you need.
