After site-migration, everything went fine except for a problem in one view (we already opened a ticket for that).
There is a problem concerning the rendering of Google maps here:
hidden link

What could be the problem?

I would need to know what is not working, and what steps are followed to produce what expected result (which is not happening, hence the problem)

When I visit hidden link I see a map, with markers.
Is that not what should be there?
Seems there are several JS errors, 404's on not found files, and You have exceeded your request quota for this API, as it seems

That will require you to either pay Google's fees or lower the usage of Maps on this site.

Thanks.

Hi Beda,
I think the problem is about the fee to be paid to Google (we read that for static maps there is no fee, is it true?) Is there a way to keep free on the website the usage of Google maps or is there a free alternative?

Thanks.

The toolset is not affiliated with the Google API changes, hence you would have to refer to their information:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/display-on-google-maps/creating-a-google-maps-api-key/
hidden link|utmccn=(referral)|utmcmd=referral|utmcct=/documentation/user-guides/display-on-google-maps/creating-a-google-maps-api-key/&__utmv=-&__utmk=226107546&_ga=2.121242056.1789325723.1539244176-1637233675.1539244176

Usually, you should not have to pay but if the site is heavily used and you have a lot of calls, then the fees will start to apply as dictated by Google.
Alternatives for now is only Azure.
