    Perhaps I’m doing something wrong, but, applying your techniques in the link you sent didn’t work. However, I did click on the Get Key for the instructions from Google, got their link, enabled and copied into the keys at Connections Settings Advanced. I don’t see the Oops anymore, just not any data. What can I do next?

    I just visited this page:

    https://sacredactivations.com/find-a-practitioner/

    The best I can tell, the maps seem to be working correctly. Per Google’s documentation, API keys can take a little time to become active. Perhaps there were not yet fully active when you were viewing???

    NO. This page: http://discovermojave.com

    Did I not select correct My Project? Is there a better way of linking them to me?

    RE: NO. This page: http://discovermojave.com

    It appears you may have disabled the Google Maps API on the Connections : Settings admin page on the Advanced tab at the bottom in the Compatibility section. Please re-enable that option. After you do, please let me know and then I’ll look at the page again.

    RE: Is there a better way of linking them to me?

    This is Google’s process. I do not have any control over their process. The API key is their new’ish requirement to use Google Maps. Sites using the Google Maps API prior to their new requirement were grandfathered, not requiring an API Key. That will change.

    Thanks. Unchecked everything in the Advanced Compatability section and saved. NO change.

    I should not have unchecked everything. I checked the
    Google Maps API v3 that looked right and it’s now working! I hate getting old.

    @ Paul

    Apologies for the confusion but I asked to re-enable (by checking it) the Google Maps API, not leave it disabled (left unchecked).

    Please add a check to the Google Maps API option and save the settings.

    Looks like we cross posted…

    I see the option is now enabled, but turning off a couple off the other options was bad as well.

    Turn the CSS and JavaScript options back on, leave the jQuery and templates options off.

    These are the default states of these options.
