Events Overview, Maps, APIs etc

Featured Replies

This is low-stakes for me but I am puzzled by how the whole events-by-me thing is supposed to look and work. I feel like my integration must be wrongly configured but I'm not exactly sure where or how.

I previously imagined it was correct because we use Venues a lot and the events always include the map in the listing. I use static maps; if I set to dynamic the map is replaced with a gray box and no map displays.

But I have never seen a map displayed in our events overview page, and enabling "my location" never shows anything with or without actively searching. My main site is a local dog club so almost all our events are within a 40 mile radius yet none ever appear in overview. No map appears at all.

I looked at the Google Maps Integration configuration and found that my keys were not named correctly in the google console and was missing the geocoding API so generated that and edited the names to match the instructions.

Looking at the console and refreshing the events overview page I'm not seeing errors; the static API count increments requests with each reload.

Still no joy. Google mentions new setups take five minutes or so to work. I made these changes an hour or more ago.

As mentioned, we really have no particular need for the events-near-me functionality but before I nuke it with CSS I feel like I should at least ensure it worked as intended in case I'm causing myself issues elsewhere I just haven't noticed yet 😬. Any Google Maps integration troubleshooting tips appreciated.

Im seeing maps working in profiles in the admin CP, so your integration is working. I have just switched on the interactive maps item. Feel free to check this again. Of course we can escalate if needed, but I have to admit to feeling thats a little futile if you are just to wipe it out in any case

Thanks for taking a look. Here's a representative event with a venue with interactive maps on.

That's entirely fair. I got to the point of wanting to nuke the blocks because they literally never display anything and makes the site feel broken to users when it doesn't do what it says it should be doing (showing me local events). Would I feel differently if it worked? I honestly have no idea.

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention! I can confirm this should be further reviewed and I have logged an internal bug report for our development team to investigate and address as necessary, in a future maintenance release.

Any news on this? I'm having the same problem.

There is still an open bug report on this currently

Do you have a CSS code to hide the map in Events and leave only the address?

This one works.

[data-controller="ips.core.map.googlemap"] {

display: none !important;

}
