Problem with Google Maps API – Plugin Issue?

Whenever I access any page of my site, I get a popup message reading “This page was unable to display a Google Maps element. The provided Google API key is invalid or this site is not authorized to use it. Error Code: InvalidKeyOrUnauthorizedURLMapError”

The website is: http://healthiercolorado.org

This is particularly strange, because I’m not actually using Google Maps anywhere on the site. I’m getting this error, but I’m not actually using an embedded Google Map or a Google Maps plugin. I think it may be something to do with a plugin error with upgrading WordPress to 4.2.1, but I don’t have a Google Maps Plugin installed.

Thanks.

I think this is your support for that theme. http://support.touchsize.com/?envato_item_id=9865664

Also have you tried:
-deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).
-switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.

The call for Google Maps is coming from here,
<script type='text/javascript' src='https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=AIzaSyASm3CwaK9qtcZEWYa-iQwHaGi3gcosAJc&sensor=false&libraries=places&ver=1430340137'></script> which is probably from one of your contact/social plugins.

Probably this one
<div class=”textwidget”><!– http://www.123contactform.com script begins here –>

Thanks. I found the script that’s the problem, but I don’t know where it’s coming from…. I took out all of the 123contactform.com widgets, and that didn’t fix the problem or remove that line of script, and when I searched in cpanel for that line of script, I couldn’t find it in any of the files either. I will contact the help for my theme.

This text is in one of your text widgets. Eliminating that will remove the problem.

It’s most likely a bad api key, but you can check from the developer console to make sure. Once you check the error, check on the developers page for the fix: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/error-messages#checking-errors

If it’s a bad key, you can change it out with your own key if you sign up for a developer account.
