Title: [Plugin: WP Google Maps] Doesn't work Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # [Plugin: WP Google Maps] Doesn't work * Resolved [Holladay](https://wordpress.org/support/users/holladay/) * (@holladay) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-google-maps-doesnt-work/) * After setting up a few maps. Absolutely nothing shows up with shortcode on page. And every time I type in a location marker, for the US, it drops it on top of London England! Would be nice to be able to load street view as well and not high up view. * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-google-maps/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-google-maps/) Viewing 13 replies - 1 through 13 (of 13 total) * Plugin Author [WPGMaps](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpgmaps/) * (@wpgmaps) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-google-maps-doesnt-work/#post-2925712) * Hi * This is normally due to the fact that your themes footer.php file doesnt contain the following line: * * With regards to your other query, what address were you typing in? * Kind regards Nick * [Textam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/textam/) * (@textam) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-google-maps-doesnt-work/#post-2925732) * Hello Nick, * I have the same problem, I use the shortcode given but the map does not appear. The plugin seems great so I would really like to solve it and use it and probably buy it in a near future. * I have checked your answer is some of the posts in the forum and my theme does have the code you mentioned: * * tag of your theme, or you will break many plugins, which * generally use this hook to reference JavaScript files. */ * wp_footer(); ?> * And it’s still not working… Can you help me please? * Thank you! * Plugin Author [WPGMaps](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpgmaps/) * (@wpgmaps) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-google-maps-doesnt-work/#post-2925733) * Hi Textam * Please can you give me a link of the page that has the shortcode? It may be a javascript problem. * Kind regards Nick * [Textam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/textam/) * (@textam) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-google-maps-doesnt-work/#post-2925737) * Sure! * The website is: [http://www.pladempresa.com/es/contacto/](http://www.pladempresa.com/es/contacto/) And it’s under the Tab “Ubicación” * Thank you for your quick reply! * Plugin Author [WPGMaps](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpgmaps/) * (@wpgmaps) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-google-maps-doesnt-work/#post-2925738) * Hi Textam * Looks like there is a javascript error with the custom.js file (not my plugin) * Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property ‘length’ of undefined custom.js:714 * it stems from this line in the custom.js file: * if($j(this).attr(‘title’).length > 0) * It appears that this has something to do with the menu javascript. If you manage to fix this error my plugin will work. The problem is that my plugin’s JavaScript gets executed right at the end and if there are any problems before hand it wont work. * Please let me know if you come right. * Kind regards Nick * [sanketbansal](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sanketbansal/) * (@sanketbansal) * [13 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-google-maps-doesnt-work/#post-2925746) * Hi Nick, The plugin is not working for custom page template.
