Map doesn’t show on an SSL enabled site

Was introduced in one of the latest updates.

If you look at the code of wp-google-maps/wpGoogleMaps.php it has a hardcoded call to http – which is being blocked as not-secure by your browser.

function wpgmaps_load_maps_api() {
wp_enqueue_script(‘google-maps’ , ‘https://maps.google.com/maps/api/js’ , false , ‘3’);
}

As a temporary measure, change

https://maps.g
into
//maps.g

[removing the ” http: ” ]
as that will make the call relative to the protocol used.

Cheers,
TomBob

in addition there is a second hardcoded call to http in the same file at

if( $wpgmza_api_key ){
wp_enqueue_script(‘wpgmza_api_call’, ‘https://maps.google’.$wpgmza_suffix.’/maps/api/js?’.$api_version_string.’key=’.$wpgmza_api_key.’&language=’.$wpgmza_locale, array(), null );
} else {
wp_enqueue_script(‘wpgmza_api_call’, ‘//maps.google’.$wpgmza_suffix.’/maps/api/js?’.$api_version_string.’language=’.$wpgmza_locale, array(), null );
}

again, please change
https://maps.go…
into
//maps.go…

und you’re ready to go ??

hi tombob,

thanks for your help!
do you know since which version this error occured?
i’m thinking about downngrading instead of altering the code.

are the plugin developers aware of this error?

I just downgraded to version 6.3.17.
It worked and the map is shown again.

@ the plugin developer:

when are you planning to release an update,
where SSL works again?

@tombob2006 – Thank you very much for posting the above solution.

@jansesberger – We’re going to be releasing an updating in less than 24 hours (We’re still testing to ensure this is a final fix) that will resolve the above issue. I sincerely apologize for this.

thanks for your fast reply!
i’m looking forward to the update ??

Only a pleasure. Thanks so much for your patience and understanding.
