  • Hi,

    Thanks for the commendations!

    This issue is most likely due to the PHP setting allow_url_fopen being set to OFF. Some hosting providers have this setting turned off for security reasons however the Google code currently requires it to be turned on to obtain proper longitude and latitude coordinates for the map pins from the Google Maps API server.

    It is best to contact your hosting provider to find out the process for enabling it. Sometimes it is done by the host however it usually needs to be done by yourself creating a php.ini file and stating allow_url_fopen=ON on one line. Again, ask your hosting provider. They may have a guide for you ??

    I will do some research to find an alternate solution for when this setting is turned off.
