I would suggest talking with Dror. I have a network with many domains. I use a Google CSE to search all domains at once. They should be able to pipe the search to your results template.

Sweet. I thought that you may restrict the script and account ID to only the domain name that you have associated to the account. But it sounds like that is not the case.
I don't know why I never thought of wmode, thanks for the tip. I will add that here soon.
Can't wait to see what your next updates and additions are.

jQuery Conflict with Movable Type PollHi,
Our site is MT 4 based, and I am using a poll plugin called Poll Position. It uses a jQuery script to vote and view results. It is busted with the toolbar on the page.
Meaning this toolbar is worthless to me until this conflict with the jQuery library is fixed. Nice widget, really is, but that is a deal breaker, since I am using jQuery extensively on our site for everything from Facebook Connect authentication, to the polls, carousels, etc.
Hope you can fix the conflict, otherwise I am done beta testing.

Initial Impressions and SuggestionsHi,
I just installed the toolbar on bgviewsnetwork.com, and one blog, http://bgviewsnetwork.com/dev/ and have some initial thoughts.
I figured that the FB Community with FB Connect would ask me for my FB API key, as I am already using FB Connect on our site. I guess Wibiya does this so that there is less hassle to the user, but would be a nice option to allow to use my own FB App that I am using for the rest of the site.
We use a Google Custom Search Engine. It would be really nice to be able to plugin the query string for our Google CSE. Since your toolbar is already setup to use Google, would it be possible to include the option on the Toolbar Dashboard to add our own CSE ID and search URL?
As I already posted a problem about, I get an API Key error when I try and translate a page, though it does translate the page for me. Clicking OK on that error is not very friendly though.
As for the Recent Posts, I could do without the thumbnail at the left. Could this be a config on the toolbar dashboard to turn off thumbnails there, especially since not all posts have images?
Flickr photo set is nice, but it seems to add quite a lot of overhead to actually loading the toolbar, so I turned it off. I had to search Get Satisfaction because I was not putting in the correct info. Can you change the Dashboard to say Photo Set ID and not Flickr Album, because that is confusing. The 3D photo gallery looks nice though.
There seems to be a z-index issue with our Issuu widget in FF 3 Windows. This does not do this in FF 3 Mac or Safari.

We use an Issuu widget to display our PDF of the newspaper. I do not know what the z-index is of that widget. But it seems to be higher than the Wibiya toolbar?
I have some questions/ideas:
Would it be possible to turn off the Random button?
Does this toolbar work with subdomains of the same domain name?
Is it possible to install this same toolbar on multiple sites, i.e. add multiple domains to our Wibiya profile?
My first impression of the Wibiya toolbar was on FIlmSchoolRejects. I am an Editor at Blogcritics and we have a few FSR writers at BC. But when I loaded the FSR site it was just crawling. Seriously slow. I did not know if it was the toolbar or the site. After installing it and fiddling with it on my Developer Blog it does not seem to add much overhead at all, which was my primary concern.
So far the toolbar looks like a great product.

Google API Key to Translate page?The Google Maps API server rejected your request. This could be because the API key used on this site was registered for a different web site. You can generate a new key for this web site at http://code.google.com/apis/maps/.
This is the error I get when I try and translate my page using the toolbar. Then when I click OK the page translates.
Site is bgviewsnetwork.com.

Ken Edwards asked a question in Issuu on June 03, 2009 04:26:
My Issuu Pro QuestionsHi,
My name is Ken Edwards and I work at Student Publications at Bowling Green State University. I plan to use Issuu for our daily, The BG News, as well as our other publications.
I am interested in the many features of Issuu Pro, but have some questions:
Does Pro lift the ability to batch edit only six documents at a time?
What constitutes the bullet point "Copyright protection: Stay in control of your content" Please explain.
Are the analytics any more detailed than they are in the free version?
Thanks,
Ken -

Show Latest Uploaded Item in widget?Hi,
I am very new to issuu and I am sorry if this has been asked before here. I searched. I would like to have a issuu widget that shows the most recently uploaded item. Or say, most recently uploaded item from Folder X. Is this possible? Does this require the API?
Thanks,

Ken Edwards replied on December 19, 2008 05:57 to the idea "Why no iPod Touch love?" in 12seconds:
Hey great response, and fast! Love 12seconds and the iPhone app looks to be a sweet extension of the service. I love my 2nd gen Touch and take it everywhere, heck I use it so much it is a business expense. If I could do 12second updates on it too, that would rock.
Picture this, I do a series of 12second reviews for Blogcritics (shameless plug sorry but I am the gaming editor) and it would be cool to have screen shots instead of my ugly mug.

And I am sure there are more Touch users who would like to be able to use 12seconds on their iPod as well.
Thanks,

Why no iPod Touch love?So I just wasted $.99 on an app I cannot use. And I do not see why. The iPod Touch can record audio. And I can select 3 images from the hard drive to use in a 12second update. So why has the new iPhone app been programmed to not work with the iPod Touch?

Ken Edwards replied on October 09, 2008 19:10 to the question "Will Loopt be supported on ipod touch?" in Loopt:
Companies willing, you mean like Brightkite. I am frustrated with Loopt and I am not even a customer of their product (yet) their decision is baffling and it would be nice to hear a response from an employee.
Does Loopt have some kind of contract with the Devil (you know, Verizon Wireless)? -
A comment on the question "Will Loopt be supported on ipod touch?" in Loopt:
I am sorry but I do not buy the "Loopt user experience would not be very good" story, thats a sack of horse crap. Skyhook seems to be pretty accurate. I do not see why it is not supported on the Touch. What is the harm? Of course it is not going to work if your not in a Wi-Fi hotspot. I think the people who own a Touch know this already. Why close out potential users? – Ken Edwards, on October 08, 2008 05:07 -

Yes as long as there is some kind of identifying UA string in there. We won't open it up to Firefox ;) But we do want to open it up for specific service such as Twitterfeed. Thanks!

meancode asked a question in twitterfeed on October 02, 2008 00:27:
What is the User Agent string for Twitterfeed?If we do not have a User Agent string, we serve our RSS feeds with yummy advertising. If we have a User Agent string, we serve an ad-free feed. To see what I mean, look here:
http://twitter.com/bcmagazine
However if you look at a site like Alltop, we have added their User Agent string, and thus, no "Presented By" every x number of headlines:

Thanks!
