Configuration

Navigate to Listeo POI in your WordPress sidebar,. Add Google API key and configure settings to your needs

The plugin caches Google Places API responses in the database for 180 days (configurable) to minimize API costs and improve performance. Cached POI data is served on repeat visits instead of making new API calls, with options to clear or refresh cache through the admin panel.

API Rate Limit

Although the plugin itself has a “Max API Requests (24h)” setting, it’s always wise to configure quota limits directly in Google Cloud.
