Hi there,

I looked at your site and didn't see outbrain widget installed on the pages. Did you remove it through blogger or change the site in some way?

Hi Mike-

This should be working now - let us know if you see any other problems.

David replied on November 29, 2008 18:05 to the question "Can a star rating be in two places at once and still work?" in outbrain:

Hi-

Our ratings and rating history are associated with the permalink of the post that was rated. For instance, we store rating history against the following URL: http://lifeismootiful.blogspot.com/20....

If you wanted to present that rating history next to the same design on your cafepress store-- and allow readers to rate if from there as well, so both sites contribute to the ratings-- you could in theory "trick" us into thinking the URL on cafepress is the same. The way to do this would be to put our raw javascript into your cafepress site where you want star ratings to appear and then dynamically pass through the appropriate lifeismootiful URL. Our javascript would look like this (drop PERMALINK HERE is where you would need to put in the lifeismootiful URL of the right design).

Hi,

I think the problem was that the three URLs identifying your RSS feed on the site aren't resolving to your actual feed, which is http://feeds.feedburner.com/FilipinoF....

We use your feed as a way to identify your site and were having trouble finding it automatically. I've created an entry for it on our system back-end, and hopefully this will get things going and allow you your blog claim to go through in a few hours when it works its way through our system. So please try claiming again maybe tomorrow morning and if you're still having problems, you can let me know directly at davids [at] outbrain [dot] com.

Hi, what error message are you seeing? Can you point us to one of the blogs where you're seeing it?

Sorry for the support delay.... We'll help you figure it out.

Hi-

You can set the your recommendation preferences by doing the following:

1) Log into your outbrain account
2) Click ‘Manage Blogs’
3) Click ‘Settings’ next to the blog you want to change
4) Change the Recommendations setting from ‘Best Recommendations’ to 'Limited Recommendations'. That will limit recommendations to links from your own site.

If you prefer, let me know the name of your blog and we can take care of it for you.

Glad you like it! We'd love it if you post about us or tell other bloggers about our service.

Hi,

If you're trying to disable links from showing under the star rating widget, you can do so by:

1) Logging into your outbrain account*
2) Click ‘Manage Blogs’
3) Click ‘Settings’ next to the blog you want to change
4) Change the Recommendations setting from ‘Limited Recommendations’ to ‘No Recommendations’

This will disable recommendations from showing underneath the rater but will keep it on the sidebar. Let us know if you have any issues and we can make the change from here.
