Description

Retroactively add Google Maps API KEY to any theme or plugin.

Simply activate, go to Settings>Google API KEY and enter your key.
The plugin will then attempt to add this key to all the places it is needed on the front of your website.
NOTE: this will only work if the Google API has been added as per WordPress standards)

Since January 2023 Google Maps JavaScript API requires callback parameter. This plugin also fixes JavaScript Error: Loading the Google Maps JavaScript API without a callback is not supported.

The plugin was created by the GeoDirectory team: https://wpgeodirectory.com

didn't do anything apparently

By Solutions Redefined (KBC Unlimited) on December 3, 2024

followed the easy instructions and checked on the mapfix.dev page and says it can't find api key or api calls but there is no help to fix it, so not sure what this plugin is supposed to do.

Nice Plugin

We've had an issue with a particular theme having something wrong with their theme settings, which resulted in the section for the API key missing. I installed this plugin and it did the job. Super easy and quick!

Super

It works. Nice! Had to create a new project and to enable billing for it before the map showed. Thanks.

Extremely Fast and Easy

This was extremely easy to use and is a much better alternative than trying to work with a theme author to add a Google Maps API Key option to their theme. This plugin gives you a link to setup your new API key. Once configured, simply copy, paste, and save.

Working great, even in WP network
