How do you disable the Google Maps API? - wordpress

I am trying to speed up my website and have found that Google Maps is the culprit. I have removed the maps but the scripts are still activating - https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?
Is there a way to disable them on my wordpress site?

For more additional information, if you really wish not to use our API, you can always disable/enable it in the Developer Console. All you have to do is to follow the steps below:
Go to the GCP Console API Dashboard page.
GO TO THE API DASHBOARD PAGE
Click Select to choose the GCP project.
Next to the API you want to disable, click Disable.
or you can check Google Cloud's Enabling and Disabling Services.
Hope I was able to help you.

You should check if there is a plugin that calls it automatically and check if the plugin or theme has this option.
If the plugin or theme does not have this option you will need to manually search the code where it is being used and remove it.
Unfortunately in your case you will need to see the code of the themes or plugins on which the script is being called so that you can have a way to remove it.
Because each plugin / thema calls this in different ways and sometimes only manually to remove

How to link Google Analytics account to wordpress

I have read multiple tutorials on web but I'm unable to find my tracking I'd/code on my Google Analytics property list. This is the image which I got from web and I want to see m Any help will be appreciated.
You can simply use any plugin out there. Here are some of my favorites:
Google Site Kit. <== This is the official Google Plugin
MonsterInsights
ExactMetrics
GA Google Analytics <== Simplest and just for this purpose. No unnecessary code.
Note: There are many others but these are per my favorites list and liking.
1st plugin will auto-connect with your google account and you won't need to put any ID or code into your site manually. Hence easy to set up.
Site Kit by Google is great for WordPress users. By using Site Kit you don't need to manually insert the code, as depicted by the screenshot you share. The plugin can insert the code for you.
In addition to the placement of code, Site Kit can show you Analaytics and other data within your wp-admin dashboard!

I'm trying to implement external REST APIs in my wordpress website. Can anybody have idea how to do it (whether with a plugin or with programming)

I tried to use one plugin called "WP Data Sync". I am also going through its documentation/ support for the same. I am also having wpbakery page builder in my website. So is there any way that we sync with that also?
Note - We have to sync data in the form of images, image gallery, events listing, and the blog posts.
Did you check out WP Data Syncs website at https://wpdatasync.com/ and create an account to check out an API key?
I'm not sure about all APIs, but the ones I've used in the past would require me to register with the API's website, get issued an API key and maybe even designate the key to a specific website (your WordPress site in this case) for security reasons. After that, you would then go to your WP site and setup the API there via WP DataSyncs plugin.
I hope I understood your question and that this helps.

How to track Google Play download sources

I can't find the simple answer for a simple question. I want to generate a link to my app on Google Play and check how many installs comes from this link.
For iOS this is very simple, you just go to the analytics ->sources and generate a link that has a parameter. I can't find anything like that in Google Play Developer Console. Am I missing something or there is not such option for GP?
You could use Firebase Dynamic Links.
More information here: https://firebase.google.com/docs/dynamic-links
You can create Dynamic Links using your own domain name:
https://example.com/summer-sale
https://example.com/links/promos/summer-sale
https://links.example.com/summer-sale
https://ex.amp.le/summer-sale
Or, if you don't have a domain for your app, you can use a free custom page.link subdomain:
EXAMPLE LINK: https://example.page.link/summer-sale
Create your free subdomain in the Firebase console.
All Dynamic Links features, including analytics, post-install attributions, and SDK integrations, work with both custom page.link domains and your own domain.

Box.com integration for WordPress

Does somebody know if there is a plugin for WordPress that can integrate the Box.com cloud service into a page/post? I am looking for a way to show my files from Box.com directly on a page in a sort of file browser.
I know that there are some plugins around that can do it for Dropbox or Google Drive. But I don't want to switch, so it would be nice if I can use my Box.com account.
Has somebody found a similar plugin for Box.com?
Have you looked at leveraging Box Embed or the Box File Picker?
Either of these will give you a small code snippet to embed Box into your site.

Google Analytics Tracker showing Tracking Not Installed

Using wordpress, I manually inserted the tracking code given to me by Google Analytics just before the tag into my header.php file. Google Analytics is still showing Tracking Not Installed.
here's the source code for my site:
view-source:http://funnykittenmemes.com/
Any ideas?
It looks like the javascript is broken from cutting and pasting.
Easiest thing to do is use a plugin rather then edit theme files. Take a look at http://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=google+analytics for any number of plugins - simple to complex - that will work.
Most you simply enter your Google ID - and sometimes authenticate with your Google account - and the plugin takes it from there.
