Can't get a Map

Post by adamsr2 »

I have created a Google Map on the web. I have it centered on the destination. The Google Map is open on another tab in my browser. I have an icon on the Google map on the destination. I have saved it as a Google favorite. Then I go to Administration/Components/Phoca Maps?/Maps, then click "edit" on my newly created Phoca Map. I have named it. Then I click on "set coordinates". If I leave the fields blank, or if I put in N 43 34.142 and W87 17.411 or 43.5700566,-84.2930143, I get "Set by Street Address". So, I put in a street address and click "set". Then I get sent back to the Control Panel of Joomla! What am I missing? I can't seem to create an actual map. Phoca Maps 3.0.4 Joomla! 3.82. Documentation hasn't helped so far.

Hi,
So, I put in a street address and click "set". Then I get sent back to the Control Panel of Joomla!
Absolutely not sure what the problem could be, because I can not adjust the problem in my test environment. (I am not directed back to the Joomla! Control Center.)
So my question, did you create the API key according to this manual and did you also create the Google Maps Directions API?

Thanks! Solved! You were correct, I didn't fully complete activating the 5 components of the API Key. Now it works great!
