Good evening.

I have installed this theme on Wordpress using the recommended tool.

When attempting to use this plugin I need an API, obviously. Although I don't see any settings nor options to use said API.

This is rather frustrating, I see several post with the same "Make sure you update" dreck for the Joomla version, but nothing for Wordpress.

Thanks for whomever's time.

All settings for the plugin will be in the back-end of the widget.  Google somewhat recently made a change to their maps API that requires new sites to add an API key before the map will load.  The standalone plugin download has been updated to add the option for the API key, so if the version of the plugin included with the shaper isn't showing that option in the widget settings, then you'll need to download the latest version of the plugin from the downloads area.

Which theme are you using?  I'll want to make sure the shaper download is updated, if it hasn't been already.

The shaper download has been updated; as I said already, if the widget doesn't have the setting for API, you'll need to download the latest version of the plugin & re-install it.

The plugin included with the siteshaper was the old version it seems. I had to download from the site. The problem is resolved.

Thanks for your time.
