Hello, Im trying to use the google maps widget included in the unyson page builder but it doesnt work correctly. It’s showing something but not the map. I entered my api key under Theme Settings-> General->Google maps api key.
I used https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/google-maps-platform-api/mlikepnkghhlnkgeejmlkfeheihlehne
chrome extension to check for errors and it seems it doesnt recognise my api key altough i think i set up everything correctly.
Can you help me?
my website is: http://www.yvesdeckenbrunnen.com/wordpress
Hi @ydecken,
I hope you are well today and thank you for your question.
It seems you are not using valid API key on your shared site.
Please make sure to configure API KEY options correctly and get it as described in the below pages.

Best regards,
Shufflehound teamHello, I’m doing good thanks hope your good aswell.
I made a new API key and I tested it on a this code:
https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/adding-a-google-map
here:
http://www.yvesdeckenbrunnen.com/website/testmaps.html
And it works fine. But on my website it doesnt. So there might be something wrong with the code of the theme.
It tells me in the console that i dont use a key. (see screenshot attached) but i can see in the code that the key is there.
I entered it in Theme Settings-> General->Google maps api key
So it should work but it doesnt. I have followed all the advice in the links you gave me but it doesnt work. Do you know anything else I could try?
Thanks for your help 🙂
Please make sure you are using below latest version of theme and resolve the Google map API errors as displayed in the attached screenshot.
Ok i now downloaded the new 4.0.1 and checked everything. As i took the wp bakery Photograhpy template for my website the page builder actually looks different then with the company template for example. Photography uses the Backend editor while the company template uses the classic editor. In the classic editor google maps works fine with my api key but in the photography it doesnt. It uses two different modules actually. so i dont know how i can fix this and uses the module that actually works :/
Any ideas?
screenshots attached
Thanks
Could you please share me the page URLs from your site where it is working and where it is not working so that I can troubleshoot it?
OK
Here it isnt working:

There should be a google maps all the way at the bottom over the footer.
Here it is working:

This is a second wordpress install of mine with the exact same configuration but with the corporate template installed. It’s working fine.
Both are using the same api key. You just need to check the pages called Home.
BTW: If I install the Photography template on the second server it’s not working either. So it has nothing to do with the wordpress configuration.
Ok I can see it is working on the site using Unyson page builder but not with WPBakery visual page builder so could you please create a page using Unyson page builder on the site https://www.yvesdeckenbrunnen.com/wordpress/ and add Google content element in it to check whether it works fine and do the opposite on the site https://www.yvesdeckenbrunnen.com/yvoloTest/ ?
I dont really understand. I dont see when it’s using Unyson page builder instead of WPBakery page builder. How can i choose which one I’m using?
Please see the attached screenshot where you can choose the page builder.
Thank you for your reply. I figured out a different way. I’m using another plugin now as I dont have the time to redo the whole page with another editor. Thanks anyway.
You are most welcome here 🙂
