    Hi,

    You have a great plugin that I have been using for a few months with no problem.
    However, after I updated to version 3.0.0 your plugin no longer works.

    I set up the Google Maps and Google Civics API as you instructed and it still doesn’t work. Now, no results are found when I enter an address.

    Please assist.

    Thank you

    I’m sorry you are having an issue. I see that there is an issue and I have contacted the coder. It being a weekend it may be Monday before I hear back from him. I will get this resolved as quickly as possible and report back. Thank you for your patience.

    The problem was not with the working of the plugin but with the instructions not being complete. When you create the new API key, you have to also enable the Civic information. Here are the complete instructions:

    To display the contact information for each Congress person we now use the Google Civic Information API which requires a separate API key. To receive one:
    * Using your Google account, login to the Google API Console. Here you create a project if you don’t already have one.
    * Click “Create credentials”.
    * Choose “API Keys” (do not restrict). Copy and save this key to use in the CongressLookup settings.<br>
    Now you have to enable the Civic API:
    * Click the “Library” side menu tab.
    * In the search field enter “Civic”.
    * Click on the “Google Civic Information API” link.
    * Then click the word “Enable”.
    * On your website, go to: Settings > CongressLookup > Configuration. Paste the Civic API key in the Google Civic API Key field.
    * Save CongressLookup settings.

    The plugin’s installation instructions have been updated to include how to create AND ENABLE the Google Civic Information API. Please let us know if you are still having an issue with this.
