Heya!

Using the social counter in the sidebar on http://themedium.ca. It gets the followers/fans right for three services, but not for Youtube — doesn’t pick up on our paltry 10 (hey, it’s better than 0). What might be up?

Thanks!

Hello,

I have checked your social icons widget and you have a wrong channel typed there: http://screencast.com/t/oHf6YMwF52
You have to add just the ‘/chanel/xxxxxx’ part in the settings field http://screencast.com/t/q6h4MODb5mw
In your case it should be : channel/UCIVfJ_P7f_rWqroid5oUNxw
I’ve entered your Chanel in my social counter and the subscribers are shown: http://screencast.com/t/OAwUAVxJDH2

Thank you!

Thanks! My mistake. Fixed now and working well. (Suggestion: sanitize/strip those social media inputs? A lot of them are kind of finicky about what you can and can’t include.)
