Hey @martincsl, thanks for the report. Can you confirm if this is still happening? I checked now and am not experiencing any issues. Yahoo's servers do occasionally have short lived issues, that can temporarily cause these kinds of issues, but get resolved on Yahoo's side. I guess I should add a note about that too.

Hi Gady, now it's working! Thanks a lot for your response! It would be nice to add a note for future reference.

Hey @martincsl, (belated) thanks for reporting back, and agree re a more helpful note. The text now reads:

Could not find window.YAHOO.context. This is usually caused by temporary issues on Yahoo's servers that tend to resolve themselves; however, if the error persists for more than 12 hours, Yahoo's API may have changed, and you can help by reporting the issue. Thanks :)

and this will be in the next release. Thanks again.
