Google requires an API key for every Maps JavaScript API request, so these maps fail with “This page can’t load Google Maps correctly” or show a “ For development purposes only” watermark. **API KEY for Google Maps** fixes this without touching theme or plugin code. Enter your key once and the plugin adds it to every Google Maps JavaScript API script enqueued on the site. #### Features * Adds your API key to Google Maps JavaScript API scripts enqueued by any theme or plugin. * Replaces an outdated or different key already present in the script URL with your own. * Adds the callback parameter Google has required since January 2023, fixing the JavaScript error [Loading the Google Maps JavaScript API without a callback is not supported](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/url-params#required_parameters). * Works on the front end of your site and in the WordPress admin. * One-click **Generate API Key** button that opens the Google Cloud Console with the Maps APIs selected. * Quick link to a free tool that checks your site for Google Maps API key errors. * Lightweight: a single settings field and a tiny inline script. The saved key is removed when you delete the plugin. #### How to use 1. Activate the plugin and go to **Settings > Google API KEY**. 2. Click **Generate API Key** (you must be signed in to your Google account), or paste a key you already have. 3. Click **Save Changes**. Your maps now load with your key. #### Requirements and tips * The theme or plugin must load Google Maps the standard WordPress way (with `wp_enqueue_script()`). Scripts that are hard-coded into templates or injected by JavaScript can not be changed. * Browser API keys are visible in your page source. In the Google Cloud Console, restrict your key to your website’s domain (HTTP referrers) and to the Maps APIs you use. #### For developers When the Google Maps API has loaded, the plugin sets `window.rgmkGoogleMapsCallback` to `true` and triggers the jQuery event `rgmkGoogleMapsLoad` on `document`. Use the `rgmk_google_map_callback_script` filter to change the callback script. The plugin was created by the [GeoDirectory](https://wpgeodirectory.com) team. ### Security To report a security vulnerability, please review our [vulnerability disclosure policy](https://ayecode.io/vulnerability-disclosure-policy/). ## Skærmbilleder [⌊Settings page.⌉⌊Settings page.⌉[ Settings page.
