9 years ago Tahnks for pointing out. (I assume you meant the checksum API, as i shut down
the Pagerank API.)
You can use the new URL what will be the standard URL as of release 2.0.8
anyway:
http://pagerank.bexton.net/?url=http://www.google.de

9 years ago This PR checksum generator at bexton.net doesn't seem to work. It's on line,
but the returned checksums seem to be invalid as they are not accepted (google
shows "we're sorry..." page).
I did some research involving a network sniffer and some SEO plugins for Chrome
- this way I could figure out what a valid checksum now looks like and which to
which URL the PR query is sent to. I found out that the checksums seems to
start with "7" now and they are not sent to toolbarqueries.google.com but to
http://www.google.com/search... - so the final query should look similar to
this:
http://www.google.com/search?client=navclient-auto&ch=71234567890&features=Rank&
q=info:http://www.domain.com
Then I spent some time searching for checksum generator algorithms which
returns the "new" type of checksum - and which has its source code available. I
found this one: http://home.zhiwei.li/pagerank/rank.p-h-p.txt and implemented
"my own" checksum generator by changing the last part to return the checksum as
JSON, which should be trivial for any coder. Then I just changed the API-URL to
"www.mydomain.com/checksum/?url=" and PR works again.
Actually I would really like to be able to submit my code changes (which
include some other tweaks for better compatibility and less problems with
getting "banned") to the project. But that would require a change to something
like GitHub, wouldn't it?Original comment by lwswerb...@gmail.com on 3 Jul 2011 at 9:55

9 years ago Thanks for the feedback and your effort! 2 things:
A) Github is planned and will i'll be moving the project as soon as i possible,
as there have bin several requests now. Thing is, i'm just too busy at the
moment with the work i'm earning my money with. So this needs to wait. ;) But
the current project i'm working on, will be finished within the next days - so
i hope you can wait that few more days. ;) (BTW: That is also, why i missed all
the ongoing issue reports and replied that late - sorry therefore.)
B) That new URL is working again, that was my fault and just a typo. by the way
i added a third key to the json array, containing the final toolbar URL. Also
you can now provide an optional second query parameter to the URL, named
'jsonp', for use with callback functions:
http://pagerank.bexton.net/?url=http://www.google.de&jsonp=test
The link you posted, i know that script. You will have a very low chance on
most standard web hosting servers to get that running. It's a PHP problem and
has something to do with the range of sidned integers in PHP. So actually this
script is one of the most shortest, but also the 'weakest' when it comes to
compatibility.
And by the way: What is about the build-in method? There was actually no need
to implement something else, but rather you could have had simply set the CONST
'USE_PAGERANK_CHECKSUM_API' to it's default value: false. Or did you
encountered any problems with that?
Anyway.. As said: the pagerank checksum api works again (and even better) and
Github will be there asap (updates on that will be posted here and on my blog
bexton.net).Original comment by eyecatchup@gmail.com on 7 Jul 2011 at 8:13
