Google Map doesn’t appear in event description.

Google Map doesn't appear in event description.

Can someone please help me understand how to make a Google map appear with my events? I’ve added a location to my event description and selected “Generate Google Map from the address” but no map is generated on the page.

My events page is here: http://lcrvtransitstudy.org/events-calendar

I also can’t figure out how to add a Zip Code to my location info. This is a problem if someone from out of state clicks “Get directions”. Is there a Zip Code field somewhere I’m missing?

Thanks!

  Hello,
  
  Please go to http://lcrvtransitstudy.org/wp-admin/admin.php?page=eventon#evcal_005 and add API key. Check this guide https://elfsight.com/blog/2018/06/how-to-get-google-maps-api-key-guide/
  
  Please add a zip code to Location address separated by comma. You can check how Google Map shows full addresses.

  Hi. Thanks for your reply. I have created a Google Maps API key and added it to my EventOn settings, but it’s still not working.
  
  Only one of my events shows that it is trying to load Google maps, but it says “Oops! Something went wrong. This page didn’t load Google Maps correctly. See the JavaScript console for technical details.”
  
  Javascript console says “Google Maps JavaScript API error: ApiNotActivatedMapError”
  
  I have followed the steps on this page but no luck. What am I missing?

  Hello,
  
  Please check your API key and redo key generating if necessary.
  
  When I apply our API key on your site, it works fine.
  
  Please check the screenshot.
  
  Thank You

  Thanks. I got it to work but I had to enable a bunch more APIs. Not sure if all of these are necessary but I enabled the following:
  - Directions API
  - Distance Matrix API
  - Geocoding API
  - Geolocation API
  - Maps Embed API
  - Maps JavaScript API
  - Maps SDK for Android
  - Maps SDK for iOS
  - Maps Static API
  - Places API
  - Street View Static API

  I had the same issue. I resolved the issue when I added billing to the google API. I know you resolved it but I am hoping my reply saves someone else a lot of wasted time.
