GoogleMaps API Key

GoogleMaps

It looks like Google have disabled existing keys until your agreement is updated - I had to turn on the Maps API v3 service, then my browser key for the site started working again:

Visit the APIs Console at https://code.google.com/apis/console and log in with your Google Account.
Click the Services link from the left-hand menu.
Activate the Google Maps JavaScript API v3 service.

I already had a browser key created for that domain from back in February, and that key now works again.

If you haven't already created Simple API keys, create a Simple API Browser key for your site in your Google console. It should look like this:


Key for browser apps (with referers)
API key: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Referers: *yourdomain.com/*

Note: You don't need to create a key unless you have a lot of traffic and a lot of maps usage. If you exceed 25000 requests per day for more than 90 consecutive days you will be exceeding your limits and will need an API key to continue service as normal.

Thanks Douglas, Not sure that everyone can access private notes, so I emailed Ken using the address on the license.

Ken, I renamed the Form Designer field event_googlemaps and the map now appears on the event detail page. I'm not sure why I made it that the field needs to be named like that, but that's the way it is for now.
Take a look, see if that works for you and let me know.

One other thing that I noticed with your skin, there is no opening body tag on the event detail page which might cause problems with other modules down the line.

Thanks Douglas,

Yes I see this on your site using Firefox, not sure why I don't see it here. I'll get this fixed up as soon as I can.

Without the api key you should be good for 25000 calls to the api per day.

Do you have maps showing to the public on your site? Googl terms and conditions are that some maps need to be public - ie you can't have a site which only shows maps to logged in users. However, I doubt that will be the problem if you have just installed it.

Can you send a private note here on jamroom.net?

Do you have a link to the page where the map doesn't show?

I do have some updates to make to the module - Paul says there are some problems with the google api key, so if you are using a key try removing that for now.

The update should be ready in the near future.
