# Google Maps Block Widget Problem

 * I’m having problems with editing the Google Maps widget. Not sure when the problem
   first occurred, probably as a result of an update (it used to work OK), as I 
   don’t edit it very often. When I edit the page, I get an error “This block has
   encountered an error and cannot be previewed.” However, if I delete the block
   and re-add it, at the time of re-adding, it works correctly. If I then save the
   page and then go back to edit it, I get the error. I’ve tried deactivating all
   plugins and still get the error.
 * Any ideas?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fgoogle-maps-block-widget-problem%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi Steve
 * Thanks for reaching out.
 * When able, please, send us an export of the page. We’ll take a look and advise
   from there.
 * Click the three dots at the top right of the page when editing. Select Code View.
   You can upload the output to a site like PasteBin.com or save to a text file 
   and upload to Dropbox or a site like WeTransfer.com.

 * Hi Andrew
 * Thanks for getting back so promptly.
 * I’ve gone into the code editor and cut and pasted the code into this file [https://1drv.ms/t/s!AsOHF3QeIkc81xbDX3BuUmIdC-ma?e=KNU8Fj](https://1drv.ms/t/s!AsOHF3QeIkc81xbDX3BuUmIdC-ma?e=KNU8Fj).
   Hope this is what you want.
 * I’ve also accidentally discovered a work-round. While editing the page using 
   the visual editor, if I switch to the Code Editor, I get the code as in the file
   above. If I then swich back to the Visual Editor, the page displays correctly
   without the error! Very odd.
 * Regards
    Steve
