Maps location wrong

Hi there,

I have enable the Google Maps, and renew the API Key for show, to the customers, the correct location on the Map but after Api Key update (removed the water mark "for developer purpose" on the map) the location showed on the map is wrong (is showed USA, instead the ITALY), may you help me to drive a correct solution for fix this issue...??

It looks like your new API key doesn't have geocoding enabled. You have to enable that from the google api manager to allow it to find the correct location on the map.

enabled and fixed....one more thing Ray, may I enable the route from starting point to my address on the map and show the best/quick route to the customer???

You could do it all on your site with the Google API, but I wouldn't recommend it. I'd just add a link to google maps for directions. Try this:

Step 1: Go to Google Maps. https://www.google.com/maps
Step 2: Switch to “directions” mode.
Step 3: Enter destination only. Leave starting point empty. ...
Step 4: Go to menu.
Step 5: Choose option “Share or embed map”
Step 6: Copy URL and use it as a directions link. And that's it.

Good suggestion Ray, thank you for your quick response and have a good Christmas holidays.
