Different Counts from API and Webserver

[Dave]

Hi, I love the great redesign.  I am using the embedded javascript to get counts for my papers, but nothing shows up for any of them.  An example is here: http://davebridges.github.com/cv.html, I figured maybe there is a lag in updates (for example, the PLOS api shows some number of page reads for the PLOS paper, they are all in my public mendeley library).  But then i realized when i add these papers to a collection, the counts are there, for example in:

http://impactstory.org/collection/kz65jy

so am i using the embedded script wrong, or am i missing something?

thanks!

Hey Dave, 

Sorry it's not working right for you. It is, sad to say, not the first time we've had trouble with the embed code; it was an early effort that is pretty hacky. HOWEVER, there is good news!  It so happens that we are going to be releasing a new version of our embed code on Saturday, and this one is Way Better. If you can hold out for a few days, you should be able to swap it out real easy and have a working embed. But don't hesitate to hit us back if you have any troubles with that one.
