Register Google Maps API Key for ACF

Register & define a Google Maps API key to allow the location field to work correctly.

First register a API key for Google Maps then include the following snippet to register the key with ACF. This snippet has two parts — one part defines a constant containing the key, the other hooks into the Google Map ACF field and set the key on the fly.

      
        <?php
      
        // Define this in the site's wp-config.php file.
      
        define('GOOGLE_API_KEY', 'your-google-api-key-here');
      
        // Add this to your functions.php file, or a config plugin/MU plugin. 
      
        add_action( 'acf/init', function () {
      
        	acf_update_setting( 'google_api_key', GOOGLE_API_KEY );
      
        } );
