 * After updating the plugin, the whole site went down and the wp google maps plugin
   threw an error. I get this error when I try to activate the plugin after updating
   to the latest version of WordPress:
 * Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.

 * I recommend reporting the issue [https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-google-maps](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-google-maps)
 * Meanwhile if you need immediate access to the dashboard or site, access your 
   server via FTP/ SFTP , or a file manager in your hosting account’s control panel(
   consult your hosting provider’s documentation for specifics on these), navigate
   to /wp-content/plugins/ and delete this `wp google maps` plugin
