 * I am a little new to wordpress, but tried to install the Google Maps Master basic
   by Tech Gasp, Everything goes good until I go to look at my page and it says 
   Something went wrong, Look at the Javascript console. I am running firefox and
   theme Twenty Sixteen
 * Console says:
 * “Google Maps API error: MissingKeyMapError [https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/error-messages#missing-key-map-error&#8221](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/error-messages#missing-key-map-error&#8221);
   js:34:391

 * I wrote about this in my blog a few days ago. It’s in spanish but I think it’s
   easy to follow, but basically you have to:
    Step 1: enter in Google Console to
   register an API Key for Google Maps and then Step 2: use this Api Key when you
   call the google maps javascript.
 * There’s a plugin for WordPress to help you in that second step, you can find 
   it at the end of the article: [http://www.avidalia.com/blog/como-solucionar-el-google-maps-api-error-missingkeymaperror](http://www.avidalia.com/blog/como-solucionar-el-google-maps-api-error-missingkeymaperror)
 * (here you can read the offical information about that change: [http://googlegeodevelopers.blogspot.com.es/2016/06/building-for-scale-updates-to-google.html](http://googlegeodevelopers.blogspot.com.es/2016/06/building-for-scale-updates-to-google.html))

 * Hi there,
 * Yes, google maps now requires an API key, but it should work without it.
    The
   new google maps master, version 5 will have the API key built in. Stay tunned
   for the new version.
