 * Hello,
 * I am attempting to mass import locations into Locatoraid, however, it appears
   as though the locations are got geocoding correctly. The .csv file imported correctly
   and I am able to input the coordinates manually so they populate on the map, 
   but the automated geocoding is not taking place. The message “GOOGLE GEOCODING
   ERROR: REQUEST_DENIED” is showing up after the plugin attempts one geocode and
   then it looks like no other attempts are made.
 * Please let me know if you have a solution for this issue, thanks!
 * Mike

 * Hello,
    sorry for not replying here sooner. This issue must have been resolved
   in the latest 2.6.8 version we’ve added the Google Maps API Key entry which is
   now required for newer sites according to the changes in the Google maps usage
   conditions.
