GEO Services FAQ
Q1 The API keys are set up and added correctly, and the map and location test works fine in the back-end, but the map for listings isn’t loading anything.
Answer: (Answer provided by ovidiubica moderator) I made a quick video that should clear the confusion on setting up google maps API. Be advised that you need to have a credit card linked to your Google API console. The service includes 200 USD worth of free traffic before Google draws a line and asks you to pay for their service. This can be found in the following forum post.
Note: Only new ads will work from now on. Previously published ads do not have the required details saved in the database since the API keys were missing.
