Unable to upload document to begin translations - google-translate

Have to get some localization done and hoping to use Google's translate toolkit to make .po files.
Despite setup billing, translate api, tried different browsers, accounts, new account... any time I click the upload button, I'm redirected (new tab) to the following url which reports a 404:
http://translate.google.com/toolkit/docupload?hl=en
I don't mind setting up by hand if upload doesn't work, but seems first step is upload.
Thanks!

Same for me with hl=fr.
The issue is also on the google forum
http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!searchin/translator-toolkit-api/404/translator-toolkit-api/pB-EJM1EUAo/4BQIdkrsmPMJ
with no answer !
Strange to get 404 error from Google !

Turns out I had to configure translate API, I'm now able to upload.

Making your site shareable on LinkedIn

I'm having a few issues with making our site shareable on linked in and I'm at a loss. The og: meta tags all look fine, the facebook scraper picks it up fine, but the linkedIn scraper does not... and the img etc are not on a protected folder or anything like that.
When inspecting the developer tools the get request to the url-preview?url= link shows that the img etc.. aren't there.
The image is less than 1mb, all og: meta tags are obeyed. The only think that may not be 100% is the image ratio is not 1/4 or 4/1 (it's 2/1)... But that is only a recommendation and not a hard and fast rule.
Does LinkedIn provide something similar to FB (https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/) where you can test the scraper and re-run it? Or is there another way to debug this? Any help appreciated.
https://www.hipla.co.uk (is the page i'm trying to share).
cheers
It transpires linked in doesn't offer a similar facility to FB or twitter to test the OG meta tags and re-scrape the page. They cache a page for 7 days and then re-scrape again. However, you can refresh the linkedIn crawler cache simply by appending GET params to the URL, i.e. https://www.hipla.co.uk?123.
I eventually figured out what our issue was. We were using a wildcard cert (for multi domain, so we could have a single ssl cert for multiple subdomains) which meant we had to set the server name in the apache default-ssl.conf file, but we had a typo in it for the www instance ... which meant it gave an SSL error (for the linkedIn crawler) which isn't debuggable (if that's a word) using linkedIn but was spotted as we got an SSL error when testing the twitter metadata tags using the twitter card validator. Hope this helps anyone else who has a typo in their ssl settings. Note that the ssl error was not visible using a browser(s) as all looked fine.

Cannot embed Google Drive Files in an iframe

I recently had a problem with the Google Drive API displaying my documents. We have developed a web application that is connecting to Google Drive accounts to retrieve a user's drive files, then display in an iframe the file using its embedUrl/alternateUrl.
This has worked fine for us in the past, but suddenly files other than Google Documents stopped displaying: html files, text files, doc files... even images!
The error I get is Refused to display 'https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_JkNS6Wu4b5R2c0YlJSN0oyQUE/edit?usp=drivesdk' in a frame because it set 'X-Frame-Options' to 'SAMEORIGIN'.
I understand the error, it means that Google is preventing the display of documents outside of the Google domain, but the question is "why suddenly now", and how to circumvent it.
If someone stumbled upon the same issue and have found a solution, I'd be glad to hear.
Thank you kindly.

Use preview instead of edit in the URL. It will work.
I had the same issue and found the following workaround showing the google drive files as webpage ressources
https://support.google.com/drive/answer/2881970?hl=en
This means you have to extract the [doc id] from your url and change your link to:
http://www.googledrive.com/host/[doc id]
Please note: in this case the google drive controls are not shown.

Analytics has encountered an unexpected condition and cannot fulfill your request

I just signed up for google analytics for my website yesterday. It was working fine until today. However, after a while, it is popping up this error:
Internal error. Please try again later.Analytics has encountered an unexpected condition and cannot fulfill your request.
Not sure what this error is and how to solve it.. Need some guidance.
Disable AdBlock in your browser, and you'll be able to access your reports again.
Edit: Another fix. When you access your GA page, you'll see a URL like this:
https://ads.google.com/analytics/web/?hl=en#home/aBunchOfNumbersAndLetters/
Change the "ads" to "www":
https://www.google.com/analytics/web/?hl=en#home/aBunchOfNumbersAndLetters/
That "ads" in the URL is triggering misbehavior by AdBlock
Another extension that causes Analytics to stop working is uBlock Origin.
If you disable that extension when you are on the analytics site, it starts working again.
Disabling AdBlock Plus on analytics.google.com page worked for me.
If the problem is the adblocker, you can try whitelisting the Analytics website. For uBlock Origin you need to go to the extension settings, select the tab Whitelist, and then add the Google Analytics link (analytics.google.com) to it.
There are several methods whichever gets you to success:
Try disabling your AdBlock extension (uBlock or AbBlocker or the one you have added).
Try whitelisting the Analytics Page on your AdBlock extension and see if it might help.
If the above two are not working, try removing the AdBlock from the chrome extensions temporarily and check if something happens or
not.
If still, something doesn't go right then, before step 3, check the id of the Adblock extension, remove it and then go to your
device, find
C:\Users[user_name]\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User\Data\Default\Extensions folder.
Inside this, If you find any folder with a name similar to your chrome extension id, delete it. This will surely
help.
Please add to it if anyone finds any new way to deal with this problem

WORDPRESS - Plugin Analytics360

I have a problem when I try to link my Google Analytics to a website which is on WordPress. (The plugin I use is Analytics360.)
The trouble is that I get to give good access to the site but this one appears right after me:
Hmm. Went something wrong with your Google authentication! The error messages was: 403: Forbidden. If you're having trouble getting
up and running, you might try one of the Following resources
Do you have a solution? Or if someone has already fallen on this problem? :-)
No need to use a plugin for Google analytics, just edit the templates header.php file or use an advanced plugin such as yoast: http://wordpress.org/plugins/google-analytics-for-wordpress/

Weird Issues with WPMU I Can't Figure Out

I know I should post this on the WPMU forum, but no one writes me back and I'm just trying to find a larger audience hoping you have run into this issue as well.
I have built a WPMU site for a client, and I am able to upload media into the Media Library and within a Post or Page perfectly. I thought my job was finished, yet the client can't upload any media at all. I'm located in Kentucky, they are located in New England (if that even matters). I had the client record their process of uploading as I thought they were simply not following my instructions for uploading, yet they are doing everything correctly.
When uploading a file it goes through the process of allowing them to select a file and it says it uploads it, yet when it is finished uploading nothing is in the Media Library or in the Post.
Video of the client trying to upload in Media Manager (http://www.screencast.com/users/CatherineWeber/folders/Jing/media/945d33fa-a752-45fd-9bc1-f76fc5a1814a)
Video of the client trying to upload within a Post (http://www.screencast.com/users/CatherineWeber/folders/Jing/media/b5c60e25-f0b5-40c0-a820-c2fc9eb00906)
Asking the client to disable Flash Uploader didn't work :(
Yet, I can login to the WPMU site, access their blog's backend and can easily upload a ton of files. I am so lost at to what the issue is here. I am running version 2.8.4a, and will try to upgrade to latest release hoping this will fix things.
Are you using same blog and same username to login ?
Ask the client what media exactly he is trying to upload. PHP server has "Maximum allowed size for uploaded files"(upload_max_filesize) option. So if this limit is set to 2M(M stands for MB in php.ini), but the client is trying to upload something bigger...it can't be uploaded.
Also check the filetype...I'm not sure, but I think wordpress has such a filter.
If even this doesn't help, ask the client to record itself what exactly is doing on his screen. There could be errors returned, or any other little missed, by him things ;)
