I have a google site and I want to add several «+1»-buttons on one page.
As I understood, all different buttons must be related to different URL's, so I created one more page with a «+1»-button, which can be simply added.
Now I want to have the same button on the main page, how can I achieve this?
I've already browsed many things about it, f.ex., https://developers.google.com/+/web/+1button/
but I can't add Javascript on Google sites!
That's ridiculous, it has information about how to add it for other sites, but not for their own.
I re-read the documentation here:
https://developers.google.com/+/web/+1button/#plusonetag-parameters
The ability to control each button individually is available in platform preview only.
Sorry.

I was wondering whether exists any dashlet which allows you to explore a site's document library. As far as I know doesn't exist such dashlet out of the box, there only exists the "Site Content" dashlet but it is slightly limited.
I have been searching around and "googling" and I found these useful resources that could be useful as a starting point if I had to create my own:
http://ecmarchitect.com/archives/2012/05/08/1592
http://code.google.com/p/fme-alfresco-extensions/wiki/GalleryPlusDashlet2
Do somebody know more dashlets/resources targeting this issue? Any suggestion?
As a temporary solution, I'm also thinking in the possibility of taking advantage of the "Web View" dashlet, by configuring in it such URL that retrieves the documentlist region/component in the documentlibrary page. For example:, share/page/components/documentlibrary/documentlist or share/page/site/{site}/documentlibrary?region=documentlist. Maybe it is crazy or what I'm saying doesn't make any sense, but it is just an idea.
Another idea that have just came to my mind is the option of creating a custom Surf/Share page which includes the component/webscript that implements the explorer of the document library, specifically the documentlist component. Then configure the "Web View" dashlet giving the URL that points to the custom page created. Would it make sense?
Thanks in advance.
You are going to see a couple of site visualization and navigation dashlets on Alfresco Visualization Tools available on https://github.com/bhagyas/alfresco-visualization-tools. The project is still at it's initial phase, but you will find interesting snippets of code used to retrieve the document library content trees within the dashlets.
The project was presented by me at Alfresco DevCon in Berlin just a week ago to bring interactive navigation and content analytics. If interested, you can find the slides at the lightening talk slides in the DevCon 2012 site at Alfresco.
Cheers! =)
Hi I've done exactly the same, it was not really needed for a Dashlet but for to embed the documentlibrary of a site in an iframe for another site.
So what I did was indeed create a new page template embedded-documentlibrary.
I've copied first the following files and renamed them:
site-data/pages/documentlibrary.xml
site-data/template-instances/documentlibrary.xml
site-webscripts/org/alfresco/documentlibrary.ftl
If you rename file 3 or put it in another folder, you need to check the paths in file 1 & 2.
So to make only the documentlibrary appear instead of everyting I just removed everything in file 3 within the <div id="alf-hd"> tag.
If you remove the tag, the document-tree will also be removed and it gave some javascript errors. This should be fixed in the latest version, but haven't tied that.
So it's extremely easy to create your own page and instead of navigating to site/documentlibrary you just navigate to site/embedded-documentlibrary or your own name you've chosen.
And yes then you'll need to use the web-view Dashlet to show it.
The only thing you need to know is, that the links open within the iframe. So if you use the web-view Dashlet, you need to open the links in a new window.
For my situation I needed an iframe, in your case you could also just let the freemarker from your Dashlet render the components needed.
There is a document-liberary-display dashlet available in the alfresco add-on list which can be used to show all the documents from document-library on site-dashlet.

It seems that Google only offers code to embed the +1 button.
However, there are heavy privacy concerns (plus quite some load time) associated with it.
For some pointers about the privacy and legal issues associated with Facebook like and Google +1, see: Like button and privacy concern
A common workaround seems to be a two-click solutionGerman (also discussed on slashdotEnglish), where the first click enables the button (loading the javascript from Google), the second then is on the regular +1 button.
However, I do not want to implement this two-click solution either. Largely because the Google +1 button is ugly as hell, and doesn't fit to the page layout.
What I'm really looking for is a separate web page, where the user can essentially confirm that he likes the page. This page can live on google.com, and essentially this would be the second click. I'm not trying to trick people into +1'ing the page. The second click is all fine with me. I just don't want to force them to load the plusone button (and I don't like its looks).
There seems to be the option of
https://plus.google.com/share?url=<URL>
which however is a share on Google+, not a +1.
I've seen this URL, too:
https://plusone.google.com/_/+1/confirm?hl=en&url=<URL>
(see e.g. here: Adding a Google Plus (one or share) link to an email newsletter) but I cannot submit this form (i.e. doesn't seem to work).
The best working solutions seems to be the two-click approach. :-(
Update: the url, https://plusone.google.com/_/+1/confirm?hl=en&url=<URL> actually does seem to work. It was just my privacy proxy breaking it. Then it seems to be more of a "Google+ share" dialog. I'm not yet happy with this result (in particular, since this doesn't seem to be an advocated approach for Google, and they can at any point consider to ban the site, I guess)
The only officially supported method of +1'ing a URL is with the +1 button. Either always loading or loading it on a second click.
The approach that I'm now looking into is fairly trivial:
I've set up a Google Plus page for the web site, and the "plus" button sends user there. In fact just like the Facebook icon I'm using. Then the users get the full choice of interaction options, including +1, but also circling and sharing.
First of all, this obviously should not violate any g+ policies. Secondly, it is a fairly transparent behaviour for the users. The "plus" button takes them to Google plus, where they see the usual plus UI.
Secondly, it's still just two clicks to "+1". So it is not worse than any other data privacy compliant solution.
I found the solution here.
The problem is, social sites accepts your own "share" forms, but only if the link is URL encoded.
In Wordpress, a custom Google+ button that I'm using without the official API, and it's currently working, is this following code:
google+
Hope it helps, go to the link above for a list of the rest of the social sites links. :)
I have integrated the Google +1 button into a website ( http://www2.highpoint.edu ).
I tried to use schema.org <meta> tags to provide Name, Description, and Image for the +Snippets information, but it doesn't work.
When I use the +1 button and try to post to Google+ about the website, it picks an image that I don't want. And it won't pick the image I have set with the <meta> tag.
My questions:
How do I get the +Snippet data populated from schema.org metadata?
For a page with 2 or more +1 buttons, can I have different name/description/image for each +1 button? Or must every +1 button on the page use the same metadata?
EDIT
I think it is best to use Open Graph Protocol instead of schema.org. That is, schema.org shouldn't be used at all. Facebook supports Open Graph Protocol, so you can kill 2 birds with 1 stone this way.
More importantly, Facebook provides a great debugging tool that tells you what exactly is getting parsed for a given URL: http://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug
I am still not sure about having multiple +1 buttons on the same page with each +1 button having distinctly different meta data.
In response to question 1:
I checked your page. It looks like you have a normal meta title and description. This should work for the +1 button, but it may take some time for the +1 button to pick up the changes you've made.
If you'd like control of the image, though, you will need to use schema.org markup or open graph as described in the official FAQ: http://code.google.com/apis/+1button/#plus-snippet
And for question 2:
If you are using schema.org markup, the +1 button will read the content for the itemscope nearest the top of the page's source code.
It does not work for me either. I have both Schema.org and Open Graph in the web page (eg. http://r.mycrep.net/3Nkh/), Multiple validators (Facebook's and one other) read info correctly.
I guess that Google still does not support metadata for everybody :-(
I'd like to bring Safari to the front (switch to) but without using a URL, instead I'd like to see the "pages" view so the user can pick an already loaded page. Is this possible?
We open links in Safari and if the user returns to the app and selects the link again, I'd rather let them pick which Safari page to browse instead of opening a new one. I know that if the same URL is called it will open the correct page but the user may have navigated within the original site so the url no longer matches.
Thanks,
Rick
I don't think that its possible, i would use a UIWebView inside your app in order to get that experience you want, you can find the UIWebView apple docs here (http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/uikit/reference/UIWebView_Class/Reference/Reference.html) and also the equivalence of c# methods here (http://tirania.org/tmp/rosetta.html) hope this helps

Your app doesn’t get control of Safari’s UI. You might, however, be able to design your site so that it handles navigation via Javascript—AJAX and whatnot—so that the actual page URL doesn't change, and thus so that the page, re-opened from your app, brings up the existing Safari page. Of course that introduces further problems with your pages no longer being bookmarkable, but you might find that an acceptable tradeoff.
I'm using the Google maps API to place a map onto a web page, just like millions of other sites have done.
However, once I click on the map (and let go), the map then acts if the mouse button is still being held and drags the map all over the page. The only way to get free of this drag action is to hit F5 and reload the page.
I've spent several hours scouring Google to find a remedy to this but can't find any mention of this issue from anyone else.
The problem can be seen at the bottom of the following page:
http://www.ef-deutschland.de/master/lt2010/default.aspx
Does anyone have any idea why this is occurring?
I vagely remember encoutering something similar a while back, I think it was caused by having an overlay somewhere on the map that wasn't supposed to be there.
Also try simplifying the code, put the map on its own page (without all the other jQuery stuff going on), and remove all parts of your code one by one until you can isolate the problem...
