[orkut-developer] Re: orkut AppReviewer
This is exactly why I posted on another thread that an app should not be taken down automatically: An app should not be taken down automatically if it is already live and do not pass this test. It may not be precise or fair enough to take a so severe measure. It should send me an email, and if the problem continues after 24 hours, it should take the app down. The goal, which I think is to maintain only good apps online, will still be achieved, because the really broken apps will be broken for more than a day. But a healthy one can be broken for just one hour. Yesterday I got an email from AppReviewer, it could not load the app because my AppEngine server was running out of quota. That's fine because it was my fault. But frequently AppEngine, or any other hosting service, has a problem, goes down and stops completely. In that case, I will lost a lot of time and money waiting for a new approval. ~Thiago On Feb 24, 4:40 pm, Frisoni fris...@gmail.com wrote: Thanks Bruno, I'll wait for another notification then.

Hi Bruno Just noticed the following: activity dialog is making a refresh (when the user clicks post) and redirectng the user to the old orkut application canvas. The code is not doing anything like this. Seems the canvas is broken - can you check this? Is it happening on production also? thanks On Mar 16, 3:17 am, Bruno Oliveira (\btco\) bru...@google.com wrote: Hello developers, Just a word of advice, since this has come up a few times recently and I've seen a few forum threads about it. In your applications, *you may never redirect the browser (for example, by setting window.top.location -- or by any other method)*. Redirections are against the developer guidelines, and if you do that, AppReviewer *will*flag your application as malicious, causing it to disappear from the application directory. No e-mail will be sent to you in this case. If your application disappeared without an explanation, this may be your case. One common use case that developers may be tempted to address with a redirection is when the user runs the app without having it installed (for example, runs it from a friend's profile). This is called *running in guest mode*. Many applications try to redirect the user to the application's install page in this case, but doing that is not allowed (as per the Developer Guidelines) and will cause AppReviewer to flag your application. Instead, what you should do in that case is run your application in a way that allows the user to experience the application (and perhaps interact a bit with the owner of the app), perhaps *encouraging *(but not forcing)* *him to install the app on his own profile... If you app does not have this guest mode and you don't want to implement it, a reasonable solution is to simply display a screenshot of the app and suggest to the user that he must install your application on his profile in order to play it, giving him the instructions or the link that will allow him to do so.

[orkut-developer] Re: Attention: redirecting the browser will cause your app to be flagged as malicious!
refresh/redirect happens on IE and FF when the user clicks post on activity dialog. It is orkut issue, it worked fine yesterday. Can you please fix it? thanks On Mar 16, 3:39 am, anatoly anato...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Bruno Just noticed the following: activity dialog is making a refresh (when the user clicks post) and redirectng the user to the old orkut application canvas. The code is not doing anything like this. Seems the canvas is broken - can you check this?

In your applications, *you may never redirect the browser (for example, by setting window.top.location -- or by any other method)*.

One common use case that developers may be tempted to address with a redirection is when the user runs the app without having it installed (for example, runs it from a friend's profile). This is called *running in guest mode*. Many applications try to redirect the user to the application's install page in this case, but doing that is not allowed (as per the Developer Guidelines) and will cause AppReviewer to flag your application. Instead, what you should do in that case is run your application in a way that allows the user to experience the application (and perhaps interact a bit with the owner of the app), perhaps *encouraging *(but not forcing)* *him to install the app on his own profile... If you app does not have this guest mode and you don't want to implement it, a reasonable solution is to simply display a screenshot of the app and suggest to the user that he must install your application on his profile in order to play it, giving him the instructions or the link that will allow him to do so.

btw, production is fine and doesn't have this issue however I would strongly advice not to push the current sandbox code into production. any clarifications? thanks On Mar 16, 3:50 am, anatoly anato...@gmail.com wrote: refresh/redirect happens on IE and FF when the user clicks post on activity dialog.
