 * Hey there.. I have been using your plugin before and its fantastic.. Really a
   great one.. I tried installing it on the “Tersus” theme.. It gave me the following:“
   The Google Maps API server rejected your request. The “sensor” parameter specified
   in the request must be set to either “true” or “false”.”
 * Please help me fix this.. Have no idea even where to start..
 * Thanx for the help – appreciate it..
 * Nick..

 * I’m seeing the same thing on a different plugin. My guess is that the maps API
   has changed.

 * Are you looking at the site with IE9? And do you have Tracking Protection enabled?
   If so, that might be the problem. The call to the Google maps API is rejected.
   If it works OK in other browsers or IE8 then the “IE9 / TP problem” is the culprit.
 * All Google maps plugins will be suffering from this, but the way the plugin handles
   it varies from plugin to plugin.

 * I’m having the following error in both Firefox and Explorer (not Chrome)
 * Erreur
 * Le serveur API Google Maps a rejeté votre demande. Le paramètre “sensor” indiqué
   doit être défini sur “true” ou “false”.
 * Suggested script on forums:
 * _[ Moderator Note: [Please post code](http://codex.wordpress.org/Forum_Welcome#Posting_Code)
   or markup snippets between backticks or use the code button. ]_
 *     ```
       <script type="text/javascript" src="maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false">script>
       ```
   
 * And yet sensor seems to have been defined:
 *     ```
       function wpgmappity_load_theme_scripts() {
   
         wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery' );
         $gmap_url = 'http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false';
         wp_enqueue_script( 'gmap_loader', $gmap_url );
       }
       ```
   
 * Any idea? The matter is urgent.
 * Thanks,

 * Translation:
 * The Google Maps API server rejected your request. The “sensor”
    parameter specified
   in the request must be set to either “true” or “false”.

   your own topic instead of bring back this 6 month old one which unrelated to 
   your problem?
