Title: Google Maps Problem Last modified: June 24, 2018 --- # Google Maps Problem * Resolved [paulie77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pauldeasy/) * (@pauldeasy) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-maps-problem-8/) * Hi Frank, * I love your plugin and it works amazing, I can’t believe the difference it makes! * But I’m having a problem with my google maps when the plugin is activated, they don’t show up. I have checked the forum and can’t seem to resolve it. * – I have added js/jquery/jquery.js to the exclusion but the problem persists. * I know you suggest having an image of the map instead but it’s a property website and I need the maps to work. * I have checked the console and I’m getting an error: Jb message: “initMap is not a function” name: “InvalidValueError” Stack: “Error↵ at new Jb ([https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?***********](https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?***********) * Error constructor:ƒ (a) Db:{constructor: ƒ, name: “Error”, message: “”, toString: ƒ} vf:ƒ (a,c,f) arguments:null caller:null length:3 name:”” * I pretty new to wordpress so I don’t know where to go from here, Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Paul. * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fgoogle-maps-problem-8%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 14 replies - 1 through 14 (of 14 total) * Plugin Author [Optimizing Matters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/) * (@optimizingmatters) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-maps-problem-8/#post-10430182) * try adding `property_location, themes/realexpert/js/property-map.js` to the comma- separated JS optimization exclusion list to start with maybe? 🙂 * Thread Starter [paulie77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pauldeasy/) * (@pauldeasy) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-maps-problem-8/#post-10430196) * You’re a genius !!! * That worked great. * Thanks you so much for the quick response and sorting out my problem. * Plugin Author [Optimizing Matters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/) * (@optimizingmatters) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-maps-problem-8/#post-10430227) * you’re welcome Paul, feel free to [leave a review of the plugin and support here](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/autoptimize/reviews/#new-post)! 🙂 * Thread Starter [paulie77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pauldeasy/) * (@pauldeasy) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-maps-problem-8/#post-10439702) * Hi again, * I have another little issue, the code you gave me worked great and sorted out the problem with the map not showing on the property page. I just noticed today that the map isn’t showing on the “contact us” page. Is there another code I need to add to fix this ? * I have this code added already: * seal.js, js/jquery/jquery.js, property_location, themes/realexpert/js/property- map.js * Thanks again, Paul * Plugin Author [Optimizing Matters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/) * (@optimizingmatters) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-maps-problem-8/#post-10439873) * the map on your contact page uses a different JS-file, which you’ll have to add to that comma separated JS optimization exclusion list; * `themes/realexpert/js/contact-map.js` * hope this helps, frank * Thread Starter [paulie77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pauldeasy/) * (@pauldeasy) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-maps-problem-8/#post-10439894) * Hi Frank, * I tried that and it doesn’t seem to work. * Thanks again * Plugin Author [Optimizing Matters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/) * (@optimizingmatters) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-maps-problem-8/#post-10439913) * Can you copy/ paste what you have in the JS optimization exclusions now Paul? Because when looking at the HTML source of the contact-page that JS seems not excluded. * Thread Starter [paulie77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pauldeasy/) * (@pauldeasy) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-maps-problem-8/#post-10439920) * wp-content/cache/, wp-content/uploads/, admin-bar.min.css, dashicons.min.css, themes/realexpert/js/contact-map.js * Thread Starter [paulie77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pauldeasy/) * (@pauldeasy) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-maps-problem-8/#post-10439930) * sorry it’s this one frank * seal.js, js/jquery/jquery.js, property_location, themes/realexpert/js/property- map.js, themes/realexpert/js/contact-map.js * Plugin Author [Optimizing Matters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/) * (@optimizingmatters) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-maps-problem-8/#post-10439942) * that last one should work. make sure to flush your page cache(s) to allow this to propagate 🙂 * Plugin Author [Optimizing Matters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/) * (@optimizingmatters) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-maps-problem-8/#post-10439968) * ah, I forgot about `contact_location`, that also has to be added to that comma- separated field 🙂 * Thread Starter [paulie77](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pauldeasy/) * (@pauldeasy) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-maps-problem-8/#post-10439998) * Hi again, * nope, still not working.
