Hi, I’ve recently encountered a problem with the SLP plugin. My map no longer shows the map or the pins. Here’s the page that is supposed to show the information
http://smilingmoosedeli.com/locations/
I’ve generated a new Google map API key and inserted that into the settings and am still not seeing what is causing the issue. I’ve deactivated a few of the plugins in an attempt to see if it was a plugin conflict – and was not able to resolve this problem.
Can you provide some trouble shooting tips in going about finding the issue?
Thank you for your assistance.
August 28, 2017 at 4:05 PM #46855CiciKeymasterTo assist you we would need the information regarding your Plugin environment as stated in the Posting guidelines.
For instance do you have any add-ons?
It appears that the problem maybe with your theme and which SLP Gallery style you chose, or didn’t choose. Error failure being shown here.

There is a troubleshooting guide in our documentation. See the info under Grey Map or Map not loading

I am hoping someone will be able to help. The map is gray or blank. I believe the API is set correctly. Here is the page the SLP Plugin appears on: http://stephenhealthinc.com/?page_id=56Here is the plugin Enviro.:

The problem happened when WordPress was upgraded from 3.6.1 to 4.8.1 and the Plugin upgraded there after to reflect that upgrade. It worked perfectly for years and now isn’t.Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you to those who take their time to debug this stuff for free.September 8, 2017 at 11:13 AM #54514CiciKeymasterDo you have a back-up of your site? Assume since you jumped from WP pre version 4 that you may have other plug-ins that are outdated and not using the jquery versions required by WP or are breaking javascript.
“The Store Locator Plus map is a very visible indicator that something is wrong with the JavaScript on your site. It is often the first thing you will notice. Often the problem is not with the Store Locator Plus code. Since the SLP plugin cannot control if its JavaScript is run first or last there is a high likelihood that some other broken JavaScript runs before it. When that happens and there is a fatal error in the other code ALL the scripts stop running on the page, including the SLP JavaScript. That means the SLP script won’t talk to Google and that means Google won’t get the request to load the map tiles.”
Jumping multiple versions if never recommended. Try using the WP debugger (see docs) to try and isolate the problems.
You would not need to obtain a new Google API key unless you have changed the domain IP address
