A comment on the question "Customize the text" in outbrain:

Just a small update:
I See that your langauge file is an old version. You should update it.
use http://widgets.outbrain.com/lang_en-3... as an exmaple.
Always compare to this file for new updates.
New features that do not have translations in old files will not be displayed. So always keep it updated. (right now we have recommendations and Most Popular whichi your file will not show) – Rotem, on May 19, 2008 08:12

A comment on the problem ""Remember me" box not working" in outbrain:

Well that could be the reason...
It works well on FF 2.
We will look into supporting 3.0 beta - but I hear it is not very stable yet... – Rotem, on May 16, 2008 18:39

Hi Kanny!
Took us a little while to consider - but we agree with your suggestion :)
Can you please send me by mail to rotem[at]outbrain[dot]com the text in Japanese characters - so we'll be able to make the above changes.

Thanks for your help

Unfortunately we do not have a list to satisfy your curiosity 
But we are considering it... so someday I guess it’ll show up somewhere.

You should claim your blog – I noticed you haven’t yet – this way you’ll see your reports. [you need to register first] and soon be able to customize your rater, and add Most Popular and recommendations.

And thanks for the kind words!! We do our best. Feel free to blog about us – here is some help http://www.outbrain.com/writeaboutus

Rotem replied on May 13, 2008 11:35 to the problem "How come the rating widget doesn't show up?" in outbrain:

I see you've tried different settings on your blog.
Let's start over:

1) In your Blogspot Dashboard – go to Layout.
2) Click Edit on page element “Ratings by Outbrain”
3) Remove
var OB_containerClass = "content"; var OB_footerClass = "submitted";
var OB_permaLinkClass= "dateheader-link";
4) Add
var OB_containerClass = 'entry';
var OB_footerClass = 'post-footer-box';
5) Save
Have a look now - better?

The reason it did not work is that we are looking to locate where to place rater - and we couldnt find it .
Now it shoudl work

Let me know
Rotem

Hi Tyler,
You did fine (pasted it in the right place), and it works fine now ( as you can see).
It didn't work the first time you tried because your template is a little different and you needed the "var OB stuff" for the rater to show :)

Regarding the" and ; - there was no mistake.
Sometimes when you copy paste it - it shows as HTML code - and then you need to delete the HTML and retype the characters we want - which are " and;

But no worries as you did it just fine.
Thanks for your patience

Enjoy the rater
