I am adding google map using Google Maps API Key, I can load google map in normal pages but not popupmaker. * The map inside popupmaker just appear as blank with google logo at the bottom, I hope you can help on this. * Thanks wayne * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/popup-maker/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/popup-maker/) Viewing 6 replies - 1 through 6 (of 6 total) * Plugin Author [Daniel Iser](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danieliser/) * (@danieliser) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-load-google-map-1/#post-7537528) * [@wayne_min](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wayne_min/) – This is because your map has no defined height & width. So google JS tries to guess the size by looking at the parent (the popup container). But the popup container depends on the content for size. Thus its height is 0 until your content makes it taller. So google renders the map at 0. * The second issue is often that the code used to initiate the maps doesn’t account for the fact that the popup is hidden. Hidden content generally has height of 0 as well. * Defining a specific height and width for either the popup of the map itself should help. * Thread Starter [wayne_min](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wayne_min/) * (@wayne_min) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-load-google-map-1/#post-7537536) * Thanks for your reply. I tried to define the map width & height, popup width & height but seem can’t fix the problem, but the map shows up once I resize the browser, That is strange but yes it is something to do with the width & height. I will keep trying… * Plugin Author [Daniel Iser](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danieliser/) * (@danieliser) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-load-google-map-1/#post-7537567) * [@wayne_min](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wayne_min/) – We see similar issues with Slider plugins that rely on the containers size as well. * You could try using the Custom size option for your popup. * Hope that helps. * Thread Starter [wayne_min](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wayne_min/) * (@wayne_min) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-load-google-map-1/#post-7537813) * Thanks for your reply, Unfortunately the google map still not working in popup after tried several methods. * I heard there have something to do with google.maps.event.addListenerOnce(map,‘ idle’, function() { google.maps.event.trigger(map, ‘resize’); map.setCenter(center);}); * but just can’t get it work… T_T * Plugin Author [Daniel Iser](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danieliser/) * (@danieliser) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-load-google-map-1/#post-7537817) * [@wayne_min](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wayne_min/) – Stick with it, is the map plugin author not providing any insight into it? I understand the issue but am not at all familiar with their code or the google map API enough to be of use without investing a ton of time learning. * Not saying I can’t help, just saying I may not be the most suitable person to find this particular fix quickly. * Thread Starter [wayne_min](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wayne_min/) * (@wayne_min) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-load-google-map-1/#post-7537831) * Hi Danieliser, * Thanks for your reply and really appreciate it. I am using Divi theme build in map functions, but I believe this is matter about google map API, which i also not familiar with. * So I have to test out other google map lightbox plugin. however, I still think popup Maker is the best popup plugins I come across and I will use it for other need. * Thanks Wayne Viewing 6 replies - 1 through 6 (of 6 total) The topic ‘Cannot load google Map’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/popup-maker/assets/icon-256x256.gif?rev=3097653) * [Popup Maker - Boost Sales, Conversions, Optins, Subscribers with the Ultimate WP Popup Builder](https://wordpress.org/plugins/popup-maker/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/popup-maker/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/popup-maker/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/popup-maker/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/popup-maker/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/popup-maker/reviews/) ## Tags * [GoogleMap](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/googlemap/) * 6 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [wayne_min](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wayne_min/) * Last activity: [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-load-google-map-1/#post-7537831) * Status: resolved
