Advanced Settings

In most cases it is advisable to not use an api key for the backend to conserve quota, because you will be billed after 28,000 loads per day.
With that said however it can be useful to use a different api key for the backend to track the usage separately.

These settings won't be available if you did not include the static typoscript in your template (see above).

Template settings

As is common with plugin extensions you can customize the templates by adding your own root paths and overwriting the templates.

This setting does not have any effect at the moment as data insertion is done via the List module.
However it is recommended to set this to the UID of the page in which you keep your Place records.

• List: Lists all Places corresponding to the filter settings
