 * The plugin doesn’t work – it’s not adding the API key. I assume this has survived
   from the bygone era where we didn’t need an API key. Adding the API key using
   another plugin works perfectly, but there are plugins that already work without
   another plugin fixing its issues. Would not recommend.

 * You assume wrong. The plugin is not from a “bygone era”. It’s up to date and 
   uses the API key according to current Google standards.
 * I’m sorry it didn’t work for you but generalizing the issue won’t help anybody
   resolve this issue.
