Map Showing "For development purposes only"

Support
#1

Dear X Team!

Even after reading all other posts I am still unable to solve my problem with google maps.

  1. Problem: On my website the Google Maps Plugin ist showing the error message "“For development purposes only”. The API should be correct.

  2. Problem: I was unable to generate a marker for the destination I want to choose on the map.

Can you help?

Best regards from Vienna!

Hello Nino,

Thanks for writing in!

Upon checking the website and dev tools I see following error message.

You have exceeded your request quota for this API.

Basically you need to activate billing on your account. For more information, please refer following post:

For second question, can you please share the site login details. I tried entering the shared credentials but it’s not working.

Thanks.

Thank you for the perfect support!
Now everything is nearly as i wanted.

I will clarify my question “How ist it possible to use the google maps also for starting a navigation?” further:
Is there an option I can choose so that the website-visitor can use the map as a start for a navigation?
Because there is no “navigate to” button or anything similar.

Thank you very much!
Good evening!

Hey Nino,

Regretfully, there’s no option to use the map as a start for a navigation. You would need to hire a web developer to create the function for you.

Thanks.
