You can update the screenshot in the github repo (still mention Google+). Also mention that the plugin works OOTB without any config can help.

Note: am I wrong or the /cgi/altimetrics cgi can be called from everywhere? So others could use your installed cgi as proxy to get the data from altimetrics.

Hi Jens,
I was a bit worried by your first message... glad the real fix is a fix! 😉

In the new release there will also be a few other small improvements, such as better internationalisation for this 

https://github.com/eprintsug/altmetric/blob/master/lib/static/_javascript_/auto/99_altmetric.js#L90 

If anyone has any comments about the plugin, now is the time to tell me (or log them here: https://github.com/eprintsug/altmetric/issues).

Cheers,

John

Nope, we already changed the API URL some months ago from http to https - but still receive this error :-/

 

Cheers

Betreff: [EP-tech] Altmetric badge plugin

 

CAUTION: This e-mail originated outside the University of Southampton.

Hi All,

Some uses of the Altmetric badge plugin (https://bazaar.eprints.org/id/epm/altmetric) have reported that is has stopped working.

This appears to be a change at the Altmetric end of things (or possibly a threshold being reached), which is now blocking the request from the EPrints server to their API.

 

We have an initial fix for this:

https://github.com/eprintsug/altmetric/commit/a687fcce74a06312e02af25f275492079e5dc6ed

but are waiting for feedback from Altmetric before releasing a new version of the plugin.

 

I'll post here again when the new version has been released into the Bazaar.

Many thanks to David Newman for flagging this, diagnosing it, and suggesting a fix.

 

Cheers,

John
