    We’ve had Geodirectory on the site for a few years, but right now we are getting a “GeoCode was not successful for the following reason: request denied” error message when creating a new Place. Can you please help me with this issue?

    Please post your URL and WP admin details in a private reply if we need to have a look.
    Most likely you need to check your Google Map API settings or your site is not using HTTPS:

    Thanks

    This is the error from the page:
    Geocoding Service: This API project is not authorized to use this API. For more information on authentication and Google Maps JavaScript API services please see: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/get-api-key

    You can open up the Google API console and make sure the Geocoding API is added to the project. If it isn’t just add it.

    This is a change from Google’s side. New keys created inside GD Settings include this API, but, if you already have a key setup, no need to make a new one if you can edit the old one.

    That appears to have fixed it.
