 * Registered and setup Google Cloud account. The API is still showing an error 
   in the console. I have removed all API restrictions so that it can be used on
   any site and with any API type.
 * Here is the chrome error
 * js?key=AIzaSyCYZPiysDEK-uvYKahOV6JUD_ix9FluIzk&ver=4.9.6:39 Geocoding Service:
   This API project is not authorized to use this API. For more information on authentication
   and Google Maps Javascript API services please see: [https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/get-api-key](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/get-api-key)

 * Hey there **[@mrlandtrust](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mrlandtrust/)**!
 * Thanks for reaching out.
 * It sounds like Google Maps API key is not properly configured. Check out our 
   knowledebase article regarding this →

 * I have played with the settings and I cannot figure it out.
 * I have left it unrestricted API code and then set App restrictions and site referrer
   restrictions. None of the combinations work.
 * So I added the “API KEY for Google Maps” plugin and removed the API code in your
   plugin. It WORKED!!!
 * Something is not calling Google API correctly in your JS file and is causing 
   it to get denied by Google on our site.

 * Nice sleuthing there, awesome!
 * Sounds like there may have been another plugin conflict there, but I’ll look 
   into this a bit more and see if I can find a cause.
 * For now, I’m going to mark this as resolved since I can’t reproduce on any of
   my sites — though don’t hesitate to reach out if you need assistance!
 * Take care,
    Ed 🙂

 * Hi,
 * I want to reply to this thread to reopen as I am experiencing the same problem.
 * I have gone through the process of applying for Google Key and entered the key
   on the plugin settings, however, the website still shows a “no key” error.
 * Here are screenshots of the settings: [https://monosnap.com/file/A14dPdahQbhpatolMfyk1F34cDdKUR](https://monosnap.com/file/A14dPdahQbhpatolMfyk1F34cDdKUR)
 * And a screenshot of the website error: [https://monosnap.com/file/sHDy4QVjzVtKnPOfR0MY39KMiTElSY](https://monosnap.com/file/sHDy4QVjzVtKnPOfR0MY39KMiTElSY)
 * This website has other plugins that utilize the Google Maps API key (different
   keys) and they have no issues. Only the Events Calendar seems to be a problem.
 * Any help is appreciated.
