I meant geocoding.

If it works from the command line, and from another plugin (both on the same server/domain) that rules out any kind of key restriction being the cause of the problem – wouldn’t you agree?

The browser key is in the browser key field, and the geocoding key in the geocoding key field :-). And as I said, I also tested with just a browser key (completely unrestricted). Both gave the same spurious error message.

> Perhaps you copied the keys in the opposite fields?

No, definitely the right way round.

That’s great. But it doesn’t work here. And if I hadn’t taken the time and effort to report it here, you’d never know there was a problem (and don’t know how many other people tried the plugin, had the same problem and just moved on without reporting it).

As I said – “Is there any more detail I can provide that will help resolve it?”

But if you’d rather I just move on, I can do that too.

For info – I tried a different plugin (‘WP Store Locator’), using the same keys and geolocation works. So I changed back to SLP but get the same ‘Google query limit’ error. Immediately switch to WPSL again and it works..!

I think that conclusively proves that the error message from SLP is actually wrong :-). This is definitely not a problem with query limits or keys.

Is there any more detail I can provide that will help resolve it?

But as I said this an entirely new Google cloud account – so these are new keys created specifically for this project – nothing else uses them or even that account.

Surely if there was any problem at all with the key then it wouldn’t work using that key from the command line either… right..?
