    Hello

    I have generated the API key on Google Developer Console and have enabled the Google Maps Javascript API but even after entering the key in the enfold panel, when I go inside the Google Maps block and click on ‘Enter address, and fetch coordinates’ button, I get an error message saying “Google changed the way google maps work. You now need to enter a valid Google Maps API Key. You can read a description on how to create and enter that key here: Enfold Google Settings”, BUT I HAVE ALREADY DONE THAT. In fact, I tried using multiple Google Accounts. Then I saw that there were two coordinate boxes that had appeared but were empty, so I opened Google Maps, extracted the coordinates of the place I want to mark and entered two coordinates in those two boxes. Now, something does show up in the Maps area, but the location (despite having the correct coordinates) seems to have shifted to somewhere in the arctic circle.

    Please help me fix this. I don’t want my customers to go to the Arctic circle because of a small error.

    PS – This has been massively frustrating. Hoping for a quick solution. :)

    Update: I just checked my Google Developer Console and saw that the Maps API is being hit properly without errors. I just don’t understand why it’s not showing the correct coordinates. Screenshot: https://c1.staticflickr.com/3/2650/33031336875_e105025255_o.png

    Hey architchandra!

    I replaced your API key with one that @Vinay generated and it worked. Please review your website now

    Best regards,

    Damn! Turned out my API and everything was okay! The problem was that the coordinate boxes in the settings are in the format [longitude][latitude] rather than [latitude][longitude]. That is very unintuitive. I would request you guys to change that. Creates needless problems. :)
