google api key

[JBWebWorks]

just bought ProMaps and generated an api key when starting.

when trying to test locally, get message
this web site needs a different api key; one may be generated at ........

i have regenerated a key and always get the same key.

have taken ProMaps off page and started over and get same results?

thanks for your help,

I pulled this off the pdf,

Note: If you are using your localhost as your testing server, you can use
the following API key. However, once you publish your page to your live
server, you will need an API key created for that domain/URL.

On my live server, using the api key generated for the www.mydomain.com

If you are testing locally, you are using localhost, so you should use the API key that gruant pointed out. When you start testing on your live server, don't forget to change the API key to the one you generated for that.

Like i said, i don't use localhost i use an Apache server and virtual hosting

i used the 'localhost key' from help and it gives the message that this web site needs a different Google Maps API Key.

i used the key generated for this web site and when going to the live server, got the error in my previous post

I have uninstalled WebAssist Pro Maps and reinstalled and i still get this error

Sorry, but i got this solved.
I got the correct api key for the live web site and when i uploaded the page, i did not have the auto upload of companion files. So the folder google_javascript did not automatically upload. After i manually uploaded the files, everything works.
