WOT Not Working!
Срд 29 Окт 2008 02:51:39 — AnonymousI have been using WOT for a while, but noticed recently that it's no longer working!
I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times, but the PREFERENCES link is no longer active, nor is the REFRESH an active link.
My browser is FireFox 3.0.3 with the following Add-ons:
Adblock Plus 0.7.5.5
CookieSafe 3.0.3
Interclue 1.5.7
NoScript 1.8.3.6
Redirect Remover 2.5.5
ShowIP 0.8.08r14b0251
WOT 20081020
I am wondering if there are any known conflicts with these Add-ons or if my firewall could be the reason?
Thanks for the feedback!

Срд 29 Окт 2008 07:52:30 — SamiWhat does it say on the rating window?
There are no known conflicts with these add-ons, but if you suspect this might be the case, please try creating a new Firefox profile to see if that solves the problem.

Вск 02 Ноя 2008 03:42:22 — vitekist (Не проверено)Thanks Sami for responding!
Just to clarify, when I 'mouse' over the WOT Icon [grayed out with a white X inside a blue circle] on the FF Toolbar, I see this message:
Failed to load ratings; retrying shortly.
Meanwhile, I will try to create a new FF Profile.

WOT Still Not Working!
Вск 02 Ноя 2008 23:05:04 — WoWzerI loaded a new FF Profile, reinstalled WOT, deleted my old WOT registration and began anew ... but alas, WOT is still not working correctly!
The PREFERENCES option upon installation was NOT operational, nor was the REFRESH option.
The WOT Icon is gray with a white X inside the blue circle -- which states:
FAILED TO LOAD RATINGS; RETRYING SHORTLY
Any suggestions?
Re: WOT Still Not Working!
Вск 02 Ноя 2008 23:14:00 — SamiWhen you created a new Firefox profile, did you install any other add-ons?
If you did, then try again with a clean profile with no other extensions installed. If you don't have any other extensions, then it sounds like something else is preventing the add-on from accessing our servers.
I'm only aware of ZoneAlarm blocking rating requests with certain configuration, but in any case, please send us a problem report and we'll get to the bottom of this.
Also, if you mean the Preferences button in the Tools -> Add-ons window, it's always disabled. The Refresh option on WOT's menu is available only if the add-on was able to load the rating in the first place.
(Oh, and your website account has nothing to do with the problem, you don't have to delete it and create another one.)
Oh dear
Птн 14 Ноя 2008 15:51:57 — Statifiedi have the exact same problem! mine started when firefox automatically installed a security update yesterday... i still cant find out what the problem is. Is firefox blocking access from WOT or somethign of the sort?
Re: Oh dear
Птн 14 Ноя 2008 18:21:58 — SamiYou're seeing the exact same problem? Did you try the suggestions in earlier posts?
sure i did and it still
Птн 14 Ноя 2008 19:19:28 — Statifiedsure i did and it still doesnt work. i have tried uninstalling, creating a FF profile etc..
but no luck :(
Re: sure i did and it still
Птн 14 Ноя 2008 19:47:11 — SamiIf the add-on says "Failed to load ratings", something is preventing it from accessing our servers. Send us a problem report and we'll figure it out.
awesome thanks ill fill one

WOT Not Working
Вск 16 Ноя 2008 07:41:48 — glasingerI just installed the latest Firefox update and now I am having the same message ("failed to load ratings" and problem others have stated. Help!
Re: WOT Not Working
Вск 16 Ноя 2008 09:56:00 — SamiCreating a new Firefox profile has solved the problem for everyone so far. See the earlier posts.
It is a bit strange that the Firefox update causes this problem though. I didn't see any problems with the 3.0.4 update at least.

Чтв 20 Ноя 2008 04:55:58 — maryabeauchampI'm having the same problem as above comments.Still trying to figure it out. It worked when I first downloaded it but zilch now. I"ll try again without other addons.
Thanks it's a great asset to have.
FireFox problems
Птн 21 Ноя 2008 20:45:55 — kworkman1I just downloaded the new Firefox yesterday 11/21/2008 and it seem to work but this morning when I went to log in it would not load the login page.
So I had to go to another option and finally got in through another option. FF seems to have some kind of issue for sure.

Now watch . . . since I said 3.04 is working fine for me, I've put a jinx on myself and now it will start to crash or WOT will stop working!
Re: FF3.0.4
Сбт 22 Ноя 2008 22:38:54 — FlyAquaI've had similar issues too. Since I'm using Firefox 3.0.4 the browser would often crash. This happens especially when I'm watching videos on sites like YouTube. However, I doubt that is WOT's fault but rather a bug in Firefox itself. The only add-on I recently installed is FireFTP, which is never active unless you open it.
EDIT: I also got the error message that WOT could not load ratings, but that is sure because the top speed available out here in the last corner of the country is some 50KB/sec (if the neighbours aren't surfing too), and if you're loading several tabs at a time the connection is quickly overstressed. This does not explain the firefox crashes though...
Fine Here...
Вск 23 Ноя 2008 03:14:56 — Xp54321WOT works fine for me...however sometimes it fails to load any ratings. Usually though, that's fixed when I restart Firefox or wait a little longer..
Hello, I got a problem a
Срд 11 Фев 2009 23:23:10 — antonio_13Hello,
I got a problem a little diferent...
Every time I open Firefox, my WOT button isn't there...
I tried everything the troubleshooting told me (including creating a new profile)... I even reinstalled Mozilla, but nothing seems to fix the problem...
So I noticed something strange: if I open another window of Firefox while the first one is still open, the WOT button reappears in the new window!
It's annoying!! I want the WOT button back to function normally as before without open a 2nd window to make it appear...
Thanks!
Re: Hello, I got a problem
Срд 11 Фев 2009 23:38:25 — SamiYou created a fresh profile with no other add-ons and the WOT button disappears when you restart your browser?
Are you sure you started Firefox with the new profile? After you close all Firefox windows, do you see any firefox.exe processes running on the Task Manager?
I think I have a worse problem..... :(
Чтв 16 Апр 2009 13:42:14 — jeremmWhy does it seem that some websites can bypass the blocking settings that I have set(like wikiepedia.org)? P.S. My settings block (not warning) all sites that have any one of the ratings poor and below, and also block if they have an unknown rating. Please Help. I don't know what's really going on even though my settings work on other websites! (like wikiepdia.org, sites with poor and unknown ratings but for some reason, not for others!) P.P.S. I have not added any websites to the whitelist. Double-checked!
Re: I think I have a worse problem
Чтв 16 Апр 2009 13:51:06 — SamiIf the confidence for the reputation (the little human figures next to the reputation symbol) is below threshold, the add-on won't block the site even if it has a poor reputation. If you agree with the reputation, just rate the site yourself and it will be blocked next time.
WOT not working
Срд 23 Сен 2009 22:50:18 — whomadewhoI have a similar problem. The WOT Icon shows up as green, as usual, but clicking on it does nothing. I am unable to rate new pages or view the score for a page this way. I have to use the settings through the tool menu. I have tried a new profile and uninstalling and then reinstalling to no avail.
If anyone knows a remedy i would be interested.
Thank you kindly
Re: WOT not working
Срд 23 Сен 2009 22:54:32 — SamiAre you sure that creating a clean Firefox profile doesn't solve the problem? Do you see errors in Tools -> Error Console?
If nothing else helps, I suppose you could enable extension logging and see what shows up in Firefox's console.
debugger
Срд 23 Сен 2009 23:05:58 — g7wDoes WOT have a debugger script that might track down the problem?

Re: debugger
Чтв 24 Сен 2009 06:45:58 — SamiNo, but the add-on will log any errors when logging is enabled in Firefox.
newest comments- bug?
Чтв 05 Ноя 2009 12:30:17 — UpsXXXfullOn my communitiy page, the last comment is repeated for about 40 times. It shoudn´t happn, right? ;)
-
Чтв 05 Ноя 2009 12:48:56 — FlyAquaThat happens when someone did a mass rating. Then so many equal comments were actually submitted. If you take a closer look, you'll see that the domain names they were posted to never are the same.
