 * Thanks a lot for this plugin! This is exactly what I was looking for! I managed
   to install the plugin and show exif data. But I can’t make it to show the Google
   map thumbnail?! I do see the “Position: ….” line but no map even though I enabled
   the “show map …” checkbox. What am I doing wrong??
 * Regards

 * [@tom7320](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tom7320/) Did you have the plugin
   installed when you uploaded the image? The geo data only gets imported when the
   plugin is active.

 * Yes I did! I also _do_ see the position as text (“Position: 55° 22′ 56.89″ N 
   14° 3′ 16.86″ E”). But unfortunately I _do not_ see the map. Theme is twenty 
   seventeen if it matters….
 * THX a lot for your answer!

 * Hey Tom,
 * Is the post/page live where this is happening? If so, can you switch it to the
   map and send me the link to take a look?
 * If not, do you know how to check the source code to see if the image URL is there
   and check for console errors?

 * Well it’s our family blog. Nothing top secret but I don’t want to make it public
   either…
 * But I put a screenshot of the console output and the html source here:

 * It seems to be a problem with the Google API key?!? I thought it was not necessary
   to have one? Confused….

   myself so far…. 🙁

 * Hey Tom, it’s does look like the Google API key is the issue. I’m not sure why
   it’s a problem, perhaps the requirements are different in different countries.
   It is free to sign up for an API key though, so I suggest you do that.
