When clicking the location icon on any image using Story or Tiger skins, I get "Oops! Something went wrong.
This page didn't load Google Maps correctly. See the JavaScript console for technical details."

Checking the console I see the Cross-Origin error.

I'd think it is something newish in browsers, Safari, Firefox, and Chromium all give the same error. I don't recall seeing this error in the past, but couldn't say when it started as I just saw it today after adding new content to the album.

I have attempted to correct this by adding to the virtual site in apache2
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"

Check apache config, restart apache, CTL-F5 the browser, go to a different folder and image.

Still get the error, no map shown.

How can I correct this? We do like the map function.

On your site, I'm not getting a cross-origin error. What I'm seeing, instead, is a "referrer not allowed" error. This is usually caused by the API key being restricted to only a certain domain, but without specifying it fully.

Head for the Google API console:

https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials

Take a look at your API key. The domain restriction, to cover all bases, should look like this:
*.example.com/*
example.com/*
If you change it, give it 15 minutes or so to "take" before testing again.

Thanks!

It seems that the API use has changed greatly since I first got a key.
Odd how reading the docs can solve many a issue...

RTFM should be used only as the absolute, desperate last resort.
