Google Maps: No API Key error

[Kristi]

I added this to functions.php, that way you don’t have to change any of the core files in the plugin.

Just add your API to the url.

add_filter('tribe_events_google_maps_api','google_api_key');

function google_api_key() {
	return '//maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_API_KEY';
}

You all are awesome – this will most certainly be helpful when working the API fix in an upcoming release 🙂

I have tried the recommendations in this thread with no success. Unfortunately, this is impacting my website and I am starting to look like a fool to my viewership. Is there any fix for this other than those listed above? The function has no impact on the map view on the “all events” page… neither does the direct edit of the plugin files.

I have removed every plugin, tried every theme, no success. I have generated an API key and set it to browser authentication. My domain is verified and I have other Google API’s running successfully.

Maps are being displayed on the single event page.

Still presented with:Google Maps API warning: NoApiKeys https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/error-messages#no-api-keys

Are you sure you have a Google Maps Javascript Api?

If you don’t manage to fix your solution, PM me and I will direct you to somebody that can on Upwork.

Yes, I have it enabled:

Like I said, single event pages, the map is shown. The All events pages, noapikey error

Howdy Joseph,

Pardon our belated response! This thread was just brought to our attention as needing a response but not yet getting one. 🙁 Probably a glitch with our forum response notifier not working as expected.

I believe what is happening for most of the folks here is that another plugin is loading a newer version of the Gmaps API than our plugin uses. This latest  version requires an API key, which is new for Google Maps. The version we have been using for years does not use one, and thus the error.

If you are experiencing the same issue then you will need to generate a key. If you are experiencing a different issue would you mind opening a new topic, and in your own words describing the problem. Opening a new topic will also request that you share your system info and a link to your website, both things that would be very helpful in this instance.

Cheers!

– Brook

I have validated that there is no other google API being loaded. I have already helped others in this forum with that exact issue… this is not my issue. There are no other plugins on my site that use or load the google API for maps.

The issue with no API key being loaded is not from an additional plugin. Please advise.

Hey Joseph,

I understand where you’re coming from, however it will make it easier on us and yourself if you could create a separate thread per forum rules. Thanks for understanding and I’ll keep my eye on the queue. Enjoy your upcoming weekend 🙂

Hello!

I’m happy to report that we have been working on this feature for our upcoming 4.2 release. The new features for each of our plugins are currently being tested by our QA team and by our beta testers. Soon we’ll be putting the finishing touches on the code and then shipping the new versions out to our lovely customers.

Thank you for your patience while we worked on this. We appreciate your support! Keep an eye out for version 4.2 coming your way in the coming weeks.
