Home Forums Backend Issues (wp-admin) Google Maps field needs setting to add API key Reply To: Google Maps field needs setting to add API key

  • This is what I did and worked for me.

    Go to the mentioned path in your plugin folder: advanced-custom-fields\core\fields

    Inside the fields folder you will find google-map.php

    At around line number 291 you will find a function

    `function input_admin_footer() {

    // vars
    $api = array(
    ‘libraries’ => ‘places’,
    ‘key’ => ”,
    ‘client’ => ”
    );

    ……..

    }`

    Add your api key to the ‘key’ for example:

    function input_admin_footer() {
    	   	
    	   	// vars
    	   	$api = array(
    			'libraries'		=> 'places',
    			'key'			=> 'your google map api key here',
    			'client'		=> ''
    	   	);
    	   	
    	   	........
    	
       	}

    Get your api key here:
