Why my FLATTR button doesn't appear in spanish language? - flattr

i'm new using FLATTR (indeed a great project!), and after read and read the official doc page i cannot configure well my button auto-submit.
The website where i'm inserting the FLATTR button is a culture blog-site (for example: kultube.net/sonora), with content in spanish. But all appear in english (title emergent over the button image, and the popup window explaining what is FLATTR to people don't logged).
I used this code at header of all pages:
<script type="text/javascript">
/* <![CDATA[ */
(function() {
var s = document.createElement('script'), t = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
s.type = 'text/javascript';
s.async = true;
s.src = 'http://api.flattr.com/js/0.6/load.js?mode=auto&language=es_ES';
t.parentNode.insertBefore(s, t);
})();
/* ]]> */</script>
And this is the code for the button:
<a class="FlattrButton" style="display:none;"
rev="flattr;button:compact;"
href="https://flattr.com/profile/caos30"></a>
<noscript>
<a href="http://flattr.com/thing/470497/caos30-on-Flattr" target="_blank">
<img src="http://api.flattr.com/button/flattr-badge-large.png" alt="Flattr this" title="Flattr this" border="0" /></a>
</noscript>
I need that it appear in spanish (specially the popup window for expose what is FLATTR) for accomplish to attract more spanish users to this great project.
If you need this, i can traduce very fast the popup content to spanish. It's a simple thing. Thanks in advance to Flattr team.
SERGI

The whole language localisation is very poor at the moment. This is also for German language: Buttons, button-tooltips and many important parts of the flattr-site still are in plain english.

Tracking Youtube Embedded videos with SiteCatalyst Omniture

So, I have tried for ages now it seems to track multiple Embedded videos on my test-site with Adobes SiteCatalyst.
Below is the link with documentation I've used
https://gist.github.com/KamalChembath/00106eb266c91777c32e
The problem I've tried to solve is that I want to be able to listen/track already embedded videos, and not actually create the videos using the API and THEN listen to them.
But the documentation "appends" an iframe created by the API into an empty div that needs to have the same id as the iframe id.
But since the embedded video is already there, I don't need this part, obviously.
Please feel free to ask questions if I'm not clear enough.
Anyone had this issue before?
Below is some changes I've made to try to make it append two players into two divs(trying to hack the code I've already got) Putting it all into a for-loop.
Regards everyone!
<div id="player123">
iframe id="player123" type="text/html" width="640" height="390"
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/-yKNuU8biQo?enablejsapi=1&origin=http://example.com"

<div id="player1234">

frameborder="0"></iframe>
</div>
<script>
var iframeObject = document.getElementsByTagName('iframe');
for ( var i = 0; i < iframeObject.length; i++){
var youtube_id = iframeObject[i].id;
var player;
function onYouTubeIframeAPIReady() {
player = new YT.Player(youtube_id, {
videoId: iframeObject[i].src.substring(29, 40),
events: {
'onStateChange': onPlayerStateChange,
'onError' : onPlayerError
}
});

post on Google plus stream with custom Content

I want to know that, is there any way to post our Formatted(Bold and Italic or \n) text as content of Post on User stream (using google plus Api).
I have tried Intractive Posts and share dialog offered by google but they do not support formatted content.
As best I know, you cannot control whether the content that Google calculates from your page content will be bold or not. However, in post content, you can * BOLD * and _ ITALICIZE _ using tags similar to markdown. Because you can pre-fill text in interactive posts, you can just pre-fill some bold words for your users suggesting they emphasize content in shares from your site.
Some code:
This goes in your page head tags
<script type="text/javascript">
(function() {
var po = document.createElement('script'); po.type = 'text/javascript'; po.async = true;
po.src = 'https://apis.google.com/js/client:plusone.js';
var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(po, s);
})();
</script>
... and this goes in the body
<!-- Place the tag where you want the button to render -->
<span
class="g-interactivepost"
data-contenturl="http://wheresgus.com/ipostdemo/gplusbw.png"
data-contentdeeplinkid="/nothingtoseehere"
data-clientid="268858962829.apps.googleusercontent.com"
data-cookiepolicy="single_host_origin"
data-prefilltext="Prefill *bold* and _italic_ content."
data-calltoactionlabel="JOIN"
data-calltoactionurl="https://plus.google.com/+GusClass"
data-calltoactiondeeplinkid="/account/signup">
<img src="gplusbw.png" width=28 height=23>
</span>

Google rending +1 button way above and left of page content

We have implemented google +1 buttons on our site and they have served reliably for some time. However we recently noticed that the buttons are not serving reliably. We rarely see them appear in their designated spaces.
For example on this page: Sample Page : you'll see a gray box of social buttons to left of the page. In it, there is SUPPOSED to be a Google +1 button.
We've requested the button with this code:
<div id="social-google" class="social">
<script type="text/javascript">
(function() {
var po = document.createElement('script'); po.type = 'text/javascript'; po.async = true;
po.src = 'https://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js';
var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(po, s);
})();
</script>
<g:plusone size="medium"></g:plusone>
</div>
We've also tried this code:
<div id="social-google" class="social">
<!-- Place this tag where you want the share button to render. -->
<div class="g-plus" data-action="share" data-size="small" data-annotation="bubble"></div>
<!-- Place this tag after the last share tag. -->
<script type="text/javascript">
(function() {
var po = document.createElement('script'); po.type = 'text/javascript'; po.async = true;
po.src = 'https://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js';
var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(po, s);
})();
</script>
</div>
Occasionally we'll see a Google +1 button render but, more often than not, the space reserved for the button is apparently blank. When you examine things with firebug, you see that Google HAS attempted to render a button, but for some reason it has placed the button far above and left of the page boundaries.
Here is the top of the html Google generates for the button:
<div id="___plusone_0" style="position: absolute; width: 450px; left: -10000px;">
<iframe id="I0_1377554650466" width="100%" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" hspace="0 marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" style="position:absolute;top:-10000px;width:450px;margin:0px;border-style:none" tabindex="0" vspace="0" name="I0_1377554650466" src="https://apis.google.com/_/+1/fastbutton?bsv=o&usegapi=1&size=medium&hl=en-US&origin=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.comicbookresources.com&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.comicbookresources.com%2F%3Fpage%3Darticle%26id%3D47537&gsrc=3p&ic=1&jsh=m%3B%2F_%2Fscs%2Fapps- ...
As you can see Google gave its generated ___plusone_0 div a left position of -10000px and gave the inner iFrame a top position of -10000px. So the button is there. It's just floating out in space. If I manipulate theses position settings (to 0px) the button becomes visible in its appropriate spot.
Any idea why this would happen? Any idea how we can fix this?
You can try adding the following CSS declaration to your stylesheet:
#___plusone_0, #___plusone_0 iframe {
position:static !important;
}
This is a hackaround, so don't depend on it in long term.
Based on an old thread in Drupal Issues.
During the last few days I'm suffering from this problem too. I have a page building app. One of the widgets is google plus: users can enter a url, and the app generates a button. (So there can be more, than 1 button on the page.) Then user saves the page and can see it on Facebook.
Recommendations and observations...
Double check the protocol of google api script. For example, if your website is on https and you are trying to load http://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js, your buttons will probably fail to render.
When I tested this issue on my server, I occasionally opened the app in 2 browser tabs at the same time. Google buttons didn't appear in the first tab, but they did in the second one!
My app requires user to be authorized on Facebook. When I opened the app without authorization, the buttons were shown as expected. But when I logged in and refreshed the page - buttons disappeared.
When I opened the page on Facebook, buttons didn't appear, regardless of whether I was logged in or not.
I beg your pardon, if you think these notices have no sense, but they may save someone's time in future.
Workaround
Suppose, you're parsing the following code:
<!-- google button will be added into this div -->
<div class="googlePlus" data-href="http://google.com"></div>
jQuery function, which parse all .googlePlus divs.
$('.googlePlus').each(function () {
var $googleDiv = $(this);
// check, if button is already parsed
if (!$googleDiv.children().length) {
// add temporary id to the parent div
var $id = 'googlePlus-' + new Date().getTime();
$div.attr({
'id': $id
});
// create, add and render btn (IE compatible method)
var gPlusOne = document.createElement('g:plusone');
gPlusOne.setAttribute('href', $googleDiv.attr('data-href'));
document.getElementById($id).appendChild(gPlusOne);
gapi.plusone.go($id);
// function, correcting css styles
if (!$.isFunction($.fn.fixGooglePlus)) {
$.fn.fixGooglePlus = function () {
$(this).children('div').children('iframe').addBack().css({
position: 'static',
width: 106,
height: 24
});
}
}
// run function, until css is fixed
var $timer = setInterval(function () {
$googleDiv.fixGooglePlus();
if ($googleDiv.find('iframe').css('position') == 'static') {
clearInterval($timer);
$googleDiv.removeAttr('id');
}
}, 100);
} // button hasn't been parsed
});
Put the button code in a a new HTML file and put that file in an iframe. Compared to #U-D13's answer, it's less susceptible to changes by Google.

Colorbox: pop-up image with link to external site on click

I hope someone can help me. I have colorbox working on a new client site, but I'm having troubles figuring out how to add code that will allow for the image that pops up to be clicked and then linked to an external site in a new tab.
This is what I have so far:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("a[rel='pop']").colorbox({transition:"fade", speed: 250});
});
<span class="h2">Baby Knits Kit</span> (2007)<br>Chronicle Books<br>
In the above, when Baby Knits Kit is clicked a pop-up opens fine with the image I created (about.babyknitskit.png). On top of the pop-up there's "Get it at Chronicle Books" and when I click it will take me to that site (in the same tab which I don't want). Instead, I would like the about.babyknitskit.png image to be clickable and opening up the link in a new window.
Any thoughts much appreciated. I hope I've given you guys enough information as I'm new to all of this and stackoverflow.
Simply use the html property of colorbox. Alternatively you could use the href property with 'inline' set to true. I have defined a custom attribute for the anchor for easier extraction, alternatively you could write a regex pattern to extract it from the title attribute.
$(document).ready(function() {
$("a[rel='pop']").colorbox({transition:"fade", speed: 250, html: function(){
var html = $('<img src="' + $(this).attr('href') + '" />');
return html;
}});
});
<span class="h2">Baby Knits Kit</span> (2007)<br>Chronicle Books<br>

Google Custom Search with custom search box and button?

I am trying to make a Google custom search (I just need some sort of search engine on my site), and I need to make it so that I can use my own search box (input field). I need it to be of exact size. I also need to be able to make my own button to search. I am going to need to be able to change the size and background of the search button. I am not completely sure yet, but I might actually need it to be a regular img.
Does anyone know how to do this?
If you cannot do this with Google, do you know of another way to do it?
If there is no other way besides using your own search engine, can I please get a link to a very simplified tutorial on how to make my own. I am willing to put in the extra work to learn, but I tried a bit, and after looking at three different tuts, I gave up because they were very very long and confusing. I hope I was just looking in the wrong places.
Here is the one I am using, you just need to add some styles to <input id='q' which is the search box, and <input value='MyButton' is the button to click
<!-- Google CSE Search Box Begins -->
<center>
<form id="searchbox_XXXXXXXXXX:YYYYYYYYY" action="http://myblog">
<input value="XXXXXXXXXX:YYYYYYYYY" name="cx" type="hidden"/>
<input value="FORID:11" name="cof" type="hidden"/>
<input id="q" style="width:600px;" name="q" size="75" type="text"/>
<input value="MyButton" name="sa" type="submit"/>
</form>
</center>
....
Edit: Above is my answer from 2010, I cannot confirm it is working or not anymore, but here is the one working.
<div id="cse" style="width: 100%;">Loading</div>
<script src="http://www.google.com/jsapi" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
google.load('search', '1', {language : 'en'});
google.setOnLoadCallback(function() {
var customSearchControl = new google.search.CustomSearchControl('XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:YYYYYYYYYYYYYY');
customSearchControl.setResultSetSize(google.search.Search.FILTERED_CSE_RESULTSET);
var options = new google.search.DrawOptions();
options.setAutoComplete(true);
customSearchControl.draw('cse', options);
}, true);
</script>

For Googlers who are looking for a solution with new "Overlay Results" option under "Look and Feel" . I used YOU's answer and added some minor hacks to make it work. Basic idea is get the code Google gives you, hide Google's search box and button, and use YOU's answer with the proper XXXXX:YYYY codes. While hiding <gcse:search></gcse:search>" do not use display:none otherwise search results will not work.
<script>
(function() {
var cx = 'XXXXXXXXXX:YYYYYYYYY';
var gcse = document.createElement('script'); gcse.type = 'text/javascript'; gcse.async = true;
gcse.src = (document.location.protocol == 'https:' ? 'https:' : 'http:') + '//www.google.com/cse/cse.js?cx=' + cx;
var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(gcse, s);
})();
</script>
<div style="width:0px;overflow:hidden;height:0px;"> <!-- if you use display:none here, it doesn't work-->
<gcse:search></gcse:search>
</div>
<form id="searchbox_XXXXXXXXXX:YYYYYYYYY" action="">
<input value="XXXXXXXXXX:YYYYYYYYY" name="cx" type="hidden"/>
<input value="FORID:11" name="cof" type="hidden"/>
<input id="q" style="" name="q" size="75" type="text"/>
<button class="btn">Search</button>
</form>
ge stackoverflow,
the issue really got me fired-up enough to do a mini walk-through - if you are trying to set up a v2 bar, dealing with the flat spyglass, just want to get the spyglass to work, want to replace the custom bar altogether using v2, finding and locating the styles used and overriding them. Hope it helps! http://t.co/9nvx2l0DeD #eb_p1
