This gadget is fixed now. A couple months ago Windows Vista Magazine changed over to Official Windows Magazine. We didn’t catch the change in time and unfortunately the gadget has suffered for it.

Good news everyone! The gadget has been fixed up, not just a simple change to the links, but a full overhaul of the backend to fix a few of the odd problems that we’ve fixed since we built as well as new logos and a new utility file. Overall, this gadget should be a bit faster and better suited to the sidebar.

We have a brand new iteration of the WoW Explorer gadget for everyone. Mostly run of the mill fixes and upgrades, but here’s a quick list for all those interested:

• Added WoW-Heroes.com to the search list. Current region and selected realm apply to the search link.
• Renamed WoW Insider to WoW.com. If you run into issues, just re-select your search engine.
• Fixed the realm sorting to allow for capital letters.
• Recompiled the browser flyout so that the resize buttons and functionality are now in the flyout, not in the settings panel.

As always, let us know if you run into any problems or have any questions and we’ll see what we can do.

It was only a matter of time until we got around to Twitter. Plus we had a lot of requests for this gadget, so how could we not take a stab at it? The Twitter Explorer gadget is a basic foray into the popular social micro-blogging platform and we hope that it goes over well.

Features:

• View recent activity, mentions, and trends
• Search Twitter or view trending topics in either a flyout or the browser
• Post updates, reply, or retweet posts in a flyout complete with short URL Bit.ly support
• Click on a posting user’s name or picture to see their stats and info
• 2 different full themes (way more than a background change)
• 4 height sizes, each with a narrow and wide mode
• Wide mode shows user pictures as well as names
• View the rate limit and any errors in a small but handy flyout

As always, we appreciate any and all feedback, requests, error reports, etc. We will do our best to take everything into consideration for future updates and fixes.

Since this gadget came out there have been a group of users who have had trouble getting the login code to work on the gadget. After going through everything we could, we released the 1.0.3 version of the gadget to get additional information and here is what we found:

Almost every login code error we received was a 100 – Missing Parameter error. This means that the code isn’t being sent into Facebook either properly or at all. With that in mind, we have a new version of the gadget designed to circumvent the current system to hopefully provide the code straight from the user input to the gadget to Facebook without involving the sidebar API too much.

In laymen terms, we think we fixed it.

Also in this update the Facebook logo on top of the gadget is now clickable and links directly to facebook.com.
