Error with the MozBar
-
Hi Mozzers
I am geting this very annoying message keeps popping up
"Confirm
Oops!
Something went wrong while trying to get your API Credentials. Please try again or check out the Help Hub if you are still experiencing issues"
Issue is I cant even read it on my screen as it gets cut off and there is no scroll so had to copy and past into word to be able to read it.
I had the issue for the last sever hours, is this my account or more general.
Thanks
Andy

Thanks Vijay, its only on my windows machine (I really only use it for Server Log Analysis) and the above seems like to much work. Its working fine on the Mac - so will just install and leave it off the windows machine.

Hi Andy,
Here are some things you can try to get it working:
- Make sure you are not in incognito mode
- Un-install your MozBar plugin.
- Un-install and re-install Chrome.
- Turn off any additional plugins these could be interfering with MozBar
- Check to see if the address bar is hiding the extension icons: http://www.screencast.com/t/7cLHKkOP
- Disable any software firewall or security apps.
- Clear all cache and cookie data related to moz.com
- Re-install your MozBar plugin here.
- Try again to Sign-in into your Moz account here and the MozBar.
Clearing your cache and cookies of all Moz related data is a very important step since we've recently required authentication for the toolbar to function properly.
Sending over the below information to help@moz.com would be a huge help in efforts on diagnosing the issue, so if the above steps don't work for you, can you please perform the following steps and send over this screenshot to moz?
- Click on this icon in the upper right corner of Chrome - http://www.screencast.com/t/HUj3m4DGuoqK
- Move the cursor over 'More Tools' and then click on 'Developer Tools' -http://www.screencast.com/t/B7SIh7qiPj
- Click into the 'Console' tab - http://www.screencast.com/t/itHrYuuq
- Make sure MozBar is running and then refresh the page if needed.
- Take a screenshot of the results (the entire window is recommended) and send that to us.
- What version of MozBar are you running?
- What is your OS version?
I hope this helps.I look forward to hearing back from you about the above.
Thanks,
Vijay

MOZ API - metadata permission error
Hi there, I have a small issue using MOZ API. I cannot make successful GET request for metadata (index stats). The request looks like this: http://lsapi.seomoz.com/linkscape/metadata/index_stats?AccessID=mozscape-XXXXXX&Expires=1497442682&Signature=XXXXXX. In my most recent request, I got an error message: "Permission denied: pckgmhkomakbnflgmckhobiiojjmomjpph". Did I forget something? Signed Authentication should be OK, because it works with other endpoints, such as "url-metrics", "links" etc. Thanks in advance! Kind regards, Zoran

Duplicate description error: one for meta one for og:type
I am getting the duplicate description error from Moz. I use both the og:description and . I am not sure if that is going to get me penalized by the search engines or my pages somehow discounted if I have meta description and og:description on the same page. What does Moz recommend? NOTE: for years I have followed this in the best practices format put out from other sources. Found at: http://webmasters.stackexchange.com/questions/52600/should-i-have-ogdescription-and-meta-description-together-on-every-page Short Answer: Use both! Long Answer: The OG stands for Open Graph which is apart of the Open Graph protocol of which works on platforms such as Facebook. The meta description element is for search engines such as Google, Yahoo and Bing. Since these are two separate tags that kinda do the same thing but they are designed for different types of platforms, one for Facebook and the other for Search Engines. The reasoning behind this is that the Open Graph protocal is more rich in what content can be feed to Facebook without scrapping the full page, think rich snippets. So images, description and more information is feed to Facebook via the Open Graph. Using both is a good idea.

Huge in crease in on page errors
Hi guys I’ve just checked my online campaign and I see errors in my crawl diagnostics have almost doubled from the 21<sup>st</sup> of October to the 25<sup>th</sup> of October going from 6708 errors to 11 599. Can anyone tell me what may have caused this? Also I notice we have a lot of issues with duplicate page titles which seems strange as no new pages have been added, can anyone explain why this might be? I look forward to hearing from you
