 * Hi Valeria
 * Thank you for getting in touch!
 * You need to activate all the relevant APIs through your Google API Dashboard
 * In the very least, you will need the Google Maps JavaScript API, Places API and
   Geocoding API.
 * Please see here for full documentation

 * I hope that helps?
 * Kind regards

 * I got the same error. Doesn’t the API key cost money through Google? Is there
   a free Google Maps option anymore? Thanks ahead of time.

 * Hi there
 * Valeria, I visited the map page you had previously linked us to however all I
   see is a 404 page, can you please link us to your map page so I can see the issue?
 * Clare, Google do require that you set up billing in order to use the Maps API
   now, however, you can set up your quota limits so that you never exceed the free
   quota they offer. You do, however, still need to set in credit card details, 
   even if you set your limits up in such a way that no money changes hands.
 * I hope that helps?
 * Kind regards

 * Thank you.
 * 1) the map is not online because I have disabled the plugin since I receive a
   terrible and very disturbing pop up with the error, EVERY time I load a page 
   on the website (when I am logged in WordPress).
    Now is online again [http://valeriaglutenfree.com/mappa-dei-locali/](http://valeriaglutenfree.com/mappa-dei-locali/)
 * 2) I have already setted the billing, followed the guide and nothing happens.

 * Hi Valeria
 * I still see a 404 page there, however I can almost certainly guarantee that if
   you are seeing the “API not enabled” popup, you need to go to your API dashboard
   and enable the Javascript API, Places API and Geocoding API. Failing to do so
   would mean you would see that popup whenever you load the map or click the address
   field.
 * Assuming you have set up billing correctly, enabling the relevant APIs will solve
   this issue.
 * If any issues persist can you please give us access to the maps page so we can
   take a look?
 * Kind regards
