[orkut-developer] AppReviewers emails about our apps
Hello
Our company (Come2Play) , has 22 game apps submitted to Orkut.
All apps names are branded as Come2Play {GameName}.
We've started getting lot's of email from AppReviewer, mainly 3 types
of them:
1) Broken Images (There were HTTP problems fetching the following
URLs...) - those we checked and fixed immediately.
2) Broken SSO process (There were HTTP problems fetching the
following URLs..)
Our apps does Single-Sign-On inside an iFrame hosted on our
servers.
It's base-URL is http://orkut.come2play.com/user_verified.asp?{sso
parameters} , and we're getting a lot of emails from AppReviewer
saying the URL won't load.
As we tested the URL given from AppReviewer the URL works fine, so
I suspect it might be load-time issue. Can you let me know what the
issue about?
For example we recently got this email for this appID:
851173990692.
3) Title Duplication (This title: 'Come2Play Hexaru' (language: cs)
of this app is too similar to the title of an existing app owned by
someone else..)
Those email we simply don't understand:
A. All of our apps are branded as Come2play, so it should not be
duplication of other app sine it contain our company name.
B. Some of our apps are unique on Orkut platform, for example our
Come2Play Hexaru cannot be a duplication of any app since there's
not Hexaru app on Orkut.
Perhaps App-Reviewer scan the word Come2Play and then obviously
finds all duplication?
I'll really appreciate your help.
Thanks!
Amir Shwartz, Come2Play.

[orkut-developer] Re: Attention: redirecting the browser will cause your app to be flagged as malicious!
anyone from orkut team can comment on activity dialog issue? thanks On Mar 20, 5:09 am, Glauber glauber...@gmail.com wrote: Same here...

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.

Re: [orkut-developer] Import orkut profile from my website
Hi! You are really using an old version of the api. You should be using 3legged oauth instead of 2legged in order to have something similar you have on Facebook. So, in this sense, take a look here: php library (which i developed): http://code.google.com/p/orkut-os-client-php java library ( developed by google ): http://code.google.com/p/orkut-os-client There is also a working (test) code I created, which is inside the library too. If you wanna take a look, just follow here: http://www.dxs.com.br/os-3leg/test/ Best Robson Dantas @robsondantas 2011/3/16 Johnny Bergström johnny.bergst...@duego.com Coming from facebook connect, I find the documentation for talking to the orkut opensocial api confusing. I would like to be able to read the profile settings like name, gender, birthdate etc and have this in my external webpage. I'm trying to use an example equivalent to http://code.google.com/p/opensocial-php-client/wiki/HowToConnecting#2-legged_OAuth_on_orkut I've created an application xml and got the OAuth params. How do I actually add this application to the user? How do I request the authorization from this user to get these fields from them? I find the documentation a bit dated since I can't find the menus and links they are writing about, and it's all focusing on javascript application to put in the orkut application directory, I don't really want to create an application in this manner I'm only after a way to import social data to my website.
