So is there anything I’m missing here?

I have this code -

Which outputs the co-ordinates correctly.

BUT if I use this code -

I get nothing at all.

Do I need to add the Google API key at the top or anything else to my template to get this working?

No, on mine if I view source the key is added automatically. Try without width/height and see if default works…

Great extension. Just wondered if there’s an easy way of using it on multiple sites using the Multiple Site Manager - works fine, apart from I need to supply a different API key for each site, since they’re on different domains? All works fine apart from I get the popup from Google telling me it’s the wrong API key, if I’m not on the original site.

OK, So I worked out that I can override the key with the key="” parameter in the templates of one of the sites, so that shouldn’t be an issue. Only problem now is that I can’t see the maps in the control panel when I’m not editing the first site I set up. Any ideas?

EDIT: Just partly sorted this out - turns out that (on my site at least) if the field isn’t set to show by default, then the map editing widget comes up without any map tiles showing. Weird, but manageable.

Now I’m coming up against the problem that the maps don’t seem to show on the front end, even though they do on the backend. Not quite sure why, just not outputting any markup in these new templates.

I just ran into a little trouble: with GeoCoordinates installed the Edit Categories link in the Publish form disappears. Anyone else experience this? Or could it be a combination of other factors and/or installed extensions?

Thanks for this extension, Mark!
I, too, am having the same issue that sneers reported. Edit categories now gone. Any suggestions on a code edit that can bring this back? Would love to be able to have both the map and edit categories working ok.
