Been noticing this for a week or so now. OSX, Dev Channel. Anyone else seeing this?

BTW, used imgur integration to upload this. It owns.

It's even worse in the beta builds for Linux. This has happened before historically, you can be sure it will go away by the time whatever version your using hits stable.

One other absolutely awful bug the beta build on Linux has, is clicking the "Open All Unread Threads" link opens everything fine, but only the last page actually renders. Basically makes the feature useless, so I recommend either not using it, or not using the beta channel, until it's resolved.

All three platforms move at different paces. I do tend to find though that if it breaks in one it will break in the other three at some point. Sometimes that will be in dev, others beta though.

How much does the "Resize Images" option actually resize images by?

Would it be possible to have it keep images in its original size but add scrollbars to them if they exceed a certain size?

Alternatively, have any image act as if they had the the TIMG tag, so that they start small but you can resize them with one click?

Images that exceed the width of my monitor and break the tables make some threads impossible to read.

It scales them to about 800px wide if I remember correctly...either way, click the image to toggle between it's original size and the compact size. You'll know if the image has been resized because there will be a dashed gray border around it.

Not dead. Been busy myself, and there aren't any huge features in the queue off the top of my head. But it's very much alive. I tend to go through stints of going balls deep working on it, and then stop for a while.

There's a bit of cleanup for the photo uploading, as well as finally getting waffleimages support, that I've been intending to do. I'm sort of backed up like whoa through the holiday though. Unless there's some earth shattering bug that crops up I wouldn't necessarily expect an update before the new year.

And, of course, any contributions I will merge and release.

I wouldn't do waffleimages support, it's horrible and you should encourage the use of imgur only.

A few people have said this, why the hate? I only started using imgur because it was easier to work with for SALR. Prior to that I used waffleimages all the time and thought it was awesome.

It's down 90% of the time. It's just awful. I'd trust my pictures with a real company, over a goon project.

This is a weird one that crops up from time to time. Do you do anything in particular that might make it happen? Early on the first iterations of the quick reply caused it for example.

Also, FYI, I've noticed that occasional dev/beta builds will flat out break the forums on Linux. I never seem to have trouble with the OSX build, but I can't scroll the forums at all now and again. I'm assuming the extension breaks it, so if you ever notice that happening, switch to another build.

Just bumping a little here. After the holiday season I'll have a number of projects off of my plate and I promise there will be some movement on SALR. Been very busy lately with a new job that started back in May, along with side projects that I needed to get off my queue.

Hey, no worries; the extension works so smoothly and seamlessly that I forget that a lot of the things it does aren't standard. I pulled up the forums in the steam in-game overlay today and was puzzled why posts weren't highlighted and everything wasn't shiny before I remembered that's your doing.

nuvan: Mar 29, 2008; And the gentle call of the feral 3am "Everything is going so well you can't help but panic."

The SA devs seem to have changed up how the page numbers are displayed, and broke the first/current/last three page links option I threw in there. This should fix it:

Replace this:

code:

// number of pages in thread
var pages = parseInt( jQuery(this).text().match(/\((\d+)\)/)[1] );

// current page being viewed
var curpage = (window.location.href.indexOf('pagenumber') >= 0) ?
	parseInt( window.location.href.match(/pagenumber=(\d+)/)[1] ) : 1;

With this:

code:

var pages = parseInt( jQuery('.pages.top').text().match(/\((\d+)\)/)[1] );	// number of pages in thread
var curpage = parseInt( jQuery('.pages.top span.curpage').text() );		// current page being viewed

Can you shoot this to me in a pull request on Github? I'll merge and rollout an update quickly if you can, otherwise, I'll fix it after the holiday when I'm back in Chicago.

Not sure if this is a strange request, but could a search box be added to the top of each forum that searches that forum by title (or make it selectable in the options if it should search by title or posts)? Maybe this is redundant since search isn't that cumbersome to use.

This already exists, check your settings under Thread Options.

This has been a bug since the feature was implemented. I've tried unsuccessfully to get the standard context menu back, so anybody who figures it out (or rewrites it with a safer jQuery plugin) will have my eternal gratitude. Otherwise, I'll try to get to it.

RickoniX posted:

The browser button actually uses SALR for all of it's preferences (despite being a totally different extension), so we definitely could add something like this. Toss up a detail of what you're looking for on uservoice and I'll see what I can do.

On that note, heavy deadline for a work project in the next few weeks, then I should have time to refocus on SALR a bit.
