SocialBrowse Plugin Breaks New Google Analytics

I was just on Google Analytics doing some late night stat checking (I’m addicted) and aside from noticing the slick new layout I noticed another thing that is now bugging me. I was checking out some of the top content here on smmguru.com for yesterday and noticed that a few of the top pages had been submitted to SocialBrowse. Any link that gets submitted to SocialBrowse basically becomes non visible because the layout gets messed up by the SocialBrowse icon next to the link.

If your lucky then you will still have part of the link to hover over or click to see what the URL is. Otherwise it may be hidden and you might want to pop open Firebug to check them out until there is a fix. I did some searching and didn’t find much on the topic so let it be known, the more people that know the faster SocialBrowse can fix this and the faster I can close Firebug. Thanks.

Who's saying what?

    BTW I am using FireFox… Not sure if they have plugins for other browsers but thought I should mention it.

    Seems like the our small additional width or height to the link messes with the div overflow variable in their css table.

    A rare occurrence we hadn’t seen yet. Thanks for reporting!

    There’s no need to use firebug. If you have the latest version of the extension there is a toggle in the lower right corner of your browser (3 people). Toggle that off and it will remove the embedded icons.

    Thanks again!

    @Dave Fowler: This is true but what if I want the functionality of knowing what links in the top 10 where on SocialBrowse? A band aid wouldn’t you say?
