Legacy Third Party Add-Ons Deactivation

Posted by CiCi in Store Locator Plus, Uncategorized, WPSLP

This report does not impact users of the My Store Locator Plus managed locator service.

The WP Store Locator Plus  version release 4.9.15 update will throw fatal errors with third party add-ons if you are using DeBaat User Managed locations (UML)  or DeBaat Social Media Extender (SME).  We are working on the Store Locator Plus 4.9.16 release to prevent the “white screen” and auto-deactivate the outdated add-ons.

Resolving SLP 4.9.15 White Screen

This issue only seems to impact third-party add ons including Social Media Extender and User Managed Locations.  It MAY impact Gravity Forms add ons as well.

To resolve this issue you need to determine how important those add-ons are to you.

Google Map Services and using Store Locator Plus

Posted by CiCi in General, Map Software, MySLP SaaS, Store Locator Plus, Uncategorized

WordPress Store Locator Plus plug-in

How do you know if you need to obtain a Google Maps API key?

As of June 11, 2018(update: Google has extended this date to July 6)  all sites using Google map  to geolocate will need a key and a billing account. If you do not have one your map will no longer work.   If you are using any of the WordPress Locator plugins, that most likely means you. If your site worked before without one, those days are history.

Google API changes in service

MySLP Managed Locator Service

This store locator service is a subscription and is managed by the Store Locator Plus team. What does that mean? Besides being able to use it on virtually any platform, it also means you do not need to worry about SLP updates nor  will you have the hassle of logging into the Google developers console to obtain a key with a Google billing account. You subscribe to our service and pay a monthly fee (subscription) depending on the plan you need. You will not see a “surprise” charge on your credit card in the event you go over the limit.

Switching between WP Store locator to MySLP just became easier!!

Contact us to learn how to sign up for the  New “Lock and Load” your Locations from WPSLP as part of your transition process  to MySLP.  Available with  the SLP 4.9.16 release. MySLP plans start for a low  monthly fee.

 

 

 

Payment Updates For Managed Locator Service

Posted by lcleveland in Map Software, MySLP SaaS, Store Locator Plus

My Store Locator Plus was updated over the weekend to update payment processing.   This does not affect billing on existing active accounts and is not related to the WordPress plugins.

Renewing Expired Accounts

For accounts that were canceled within 30 days, whether by choice or because a credit card payment could not be processed, the renew option is back online.

The option to renew a recently-expired accounts had been offline for the past 60 days due to a change in the programming interface at our payment processor.    With the changes to the interface all renewed MySLP subscriptions will have a new subscription number.  This will not impact your MySLP functionality but for those that keep track of transactions at Stripe (our payment processor) you will note two different subscriptions if you choose to renew your account.
