常见问题:
Where do I get a Google Places API key?
Go to the Google Cloud Console, enable the Places API, create an API key, and attach a billing account. Google offers a free tier.
How do I find my Place ID?
Use Google's Place ID Finder tool. Paste the Place ID into the PlaceCore Reviews settings page.
Will my API key be visible to visitors?
No. All API requests are made server-side using the WordPress HTTP API. Your API key is stored in the WordPress options table and is never sent to the browser.
How long are reviews cached?
By default, reviews are cached for 1 hour (3600 seconds). You can change this in the settings page, from 60 seconds up to 1 week.
How many reviews can I display?
Google returns a maximum of 5 reviews per Place ID. This is a Google API limit, not a plugin limitation.
What happens if Google is unreachable?
Visitors see nothing. Administrators (users with the manage_options capability) see an error message on the page so they can diagnose the problem.
