Wbcom Designs – Check-ins for BuddyPress Activity

So for the plugin works good but still more can be done with this like user can see mapping of places to maps on front-end.

Need Improvements

After setting up the plugin, and adding my api key, the plugin doesn't work. When posting a status and clicking on the location icon I get a message saying "Please Wait.." but nothing happens after that.

If this gets fixed in a future update I will adjust my review.
