 * Hi [@shuvo3232131](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shuvo3232131/),
 * Sorry for the trouble. The most common reason a Google Maps API key stops working
   with WP Job Manager is HTTP referrer restrictions. WPJM calls the Maps API server-
   side, so if your key is restricted to specific websites, it will fail with something
   like:
 * “API keys with referer restrictions cannot be used with this API.”
 * A few things to check in Google Cloud Console:
    1. Open your key and remove any HTTP referrer restrictions (or switch to IP-based
       restrictions and add your server’s IP)
    2. Make sure Geocoding API is enabled. If you use location autocomplete on the 
       submit-job form, also enable Maps JavaScript API and Places API
    3. Confirm billing is active on the project. Maps requests fail silently without
       it, even on the free tier
 * Then in WP Admin, go to Job Listings → Settings → Pages, paste the key, save,
   and click Test Key. If you still see an error, share the exact message and I 
   can point you to the fix.
 * Also, could you share the URL of your site and let me know what you see when 
   you visit a job listing page? That will help me confirm whether you are using
   the core plugin’s geocoding or an add-on/theme that displays a visible map.
