    Greetings,

    First of all. Man. The purpose that the plugin fulfills…
    Man, you are the best. Thank you. Totally looking forward to buy PRO version.

    Yet I have trouble showing the map, I’ve enabled Maps Embed API and other Maps connected ones just in case, no restrictions for the API in credentials, doublechecked, tried several ways to enter the domain yet I still get the error saying:

    Google Maps Platform rejected your request. This IP, site or mobile application is not authorized to use this API key. Request received from IP address 1.234.111.222, with referer: https://website.com/my-account/driver-dashboard/?orderid=123

    I can’t figure any way to make this work.

    Any advise?

    Mike

    Thank you, I’m glad you like the plugin!

    For that error, it sounds like the API key added has restrictions on it.

    Did you lock down the API key when you created it to only work on specific URLs?

    I’d check in the Google API settings to see if there’s any restrictions in place.

    Thanks!

    Well, I did entered my website out there, when I did restrictless with no entries – then map was fetched fine. But then Google advises on not doing that and make *.site.com/* restrictions.

    Yet I have a question for the map itself, I can see the estimate now but no way to choose and throw the deeplink to the installed google maps or any other application.

    For the map restrictions issue, that sounds like Google isn’t recognizing the site URL you’re adding into the restrictions since it’s fetching fine without a restriction in place.

    As for your question, do you mean there should be a button for the driver to click and open their google maps app with the directions for them to follow?

    It’s not something included by default but I’ve made a note to look into this further and see if there’s a universally useful way of including it.

    There’s filters for the map that would allow you to customize the output and include a button like that.

    View available filters.
