Hi.

The Maps documentation's installation instructions lists a variable to pass an API key to Google.
http://mapping.referata.com/wiki/Maps#Installation

This leads you to believe the facility is supported, allowing you to buy a license from Google to support >2500 geocodes per day.

However, the key is not passed into the V3 API, so you are limited to the anonymous access limit of 2500 geocodes a day. Any further geocode attempts fail.

The ability to pass the API key is required.

Thanks

I expect it is a common call, but just in case it's not, Semantic Maps needs to support this as well.

:)

Hi Jeroen.

Great news that Maps 2.0 is coming out. Will this fix be included?

Thanks!
Comment 3 Jeroen De Dauw 2012-07-03 13:06:47 UTC 
This has been fixed on master and is in 2.0 alpha.
