Support NeoGAF

[ScOULaris]

The smiley extension is the best thing ever.

Agreed. I think it should have gotten its own thread.

 

[Jafku]

This is cool. Could somebody pm me?

 

[NaM]

Nice, now all I need is a friend in GAF.

 

[Bboy AJ]

I was just thinking I could probably tweak this to notify you when:

- A thread you have made is bumped
- New posts are posted in threads you are subscribed to (using User CP)

This would be dope!

I was just thinking I could probably tweak this to notify you when:

- A thread you have made is bumped
- New posts are posted in threads you are subscribed to (using User CP)

I think in that case, it would be less intrusive to have either a page or browser action which will update with a counter of unread subscribed threads. With a couple of subscriptions to some megathreads you would end up with the popup constantly showing.

A page action would probably be what I'd personally opt for. Simple, unobtrusive and only shows up in the address bar when there's unread items in the CP. Click it and you get a listing of updated threads.

Just my opinion.

Edit:
Also, correct me if I'm wrong (Andrex, you probably know this) but theoretically, we could register a NeoGAF app (with Evilore's permission obviously) and people could just 'install' that app and get to a NeoGAF with all user's extensions in place without actually having to install any extension, am I right?

If you mean a CWS app then I don't know if that's possible because of all the permissions.

I definitely like the idea of a browser action for the bumped threads you're subscribed to. Of course, have an option to use desktop notifications for it.

For that I'm going to have to look into ways to transform HTML into JavaScript objects...

Stealth brag thread?

Stealth brag thread?

My next extension is gonna be awesome guys, and it's not what I talked about before.

 

[Snuggles]

When are you gonna make an extension that tracks your posts?

Anyways, I have all the other ones installed. MAXIMUM GAF. I've put the Message extension to use since I get like, 20 PM's a day.

 

[kehs]

You should make an extension to run chrome inside of opera.

 

[kaskade]

Awesome work, even thought I rarely get PMs.

I don't think that's possible...

If you're using jquery, $("a[id^='thread_title_']") on the cp page would basically get you the links to all thread titles on page (and being User CP, it will only have unread ones). I'm fairly new to jquery overall so there's probably a better way to do it.

Oh yeah regexp's... >.> Thanks for that!

 

[Jinfash]

Good job man.

But you know what extension I'd pay money to install? one that enhances the ignore function; removes the "show post/remove user from ignore list" box, and also removes every post quoting anyone ignored. That would be godlike, it'll make a lot of threads much more readable.

 

[Seraphinianus]

Sweet. Now all I need an icon for threads I've posted in...

if i called you a pussy, would I make it on your ignore list?

nice, now if only i got pms

That actually shouldn't be too hard to do... I'll keep it in mind.

Luckily for you dev's can't charge for extensions... yet.

 

[Jinfash]

No, it'll take more than that, like calling me a pussy while donning a pony avatar for instance.

Sweet.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

So yeah...

:O

 

[Majine]

Is the smilies extension allowed here? Considering they took them away...

 

[Zeppu]

So yeah...

:O

Awesome!!

 

[Qwomo]

Wait, quick reply extension..?

You have become a god.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

NeoGAF Quick Reply is a "just-for-fun extension that adds a quick reply form to the bottom of every page in a thread on NeoGAF. Works well with the Live Updater extension, and includes the current three smilies from my NeoGAF Smilies extension."



Ironically, the smilies work better in the Quick Reply box than just purely with my other extension.

 

[ssowinski]

We need one that keeps track of the threads you post in. Perhaps even if someone quoted your previous post.

Spoiler

never even checked to see if the User CP allows you to do this without sending you PMs every time

 

[Zeppu]

Yay!! Can't believe you're on 50 posts per page tho

Already posted about. Can't happen without Evilore either installing a vBulletin plugin or allowing me to upload a PHP script.

I guess I never saw a reason to change it.

D'oh!

Plus you caught my typo. So much for the stealth edit.

For the quick reply extension, there is a bug in that the normal post box is the same smaller size as the quick reply's, but if you're on Chrome, you can just grab the little handle and enlarge it anyways for now.

 

[Mush]

Yo Andrex, I'm a Chrome noob and I want to give it a go. Is there a thread or list somewhere of general browsing add-ons I should have installed?

It's working fine for me, the normal box is the usual bigger size. Thanks for this though, so great.

You can always check the Chrome OT for suggestions. Whatever's on the front page of the Chrome Web Store is usually worth checking out. And of course, you probably want to install all of the NeoGAF-optimizing Chrome extensions.

Huh, weird. For me it's really stout.

 

[PaulLFC]

Great extensions! Using every GAF extension now, the one-click user post highlighting in the Keyboard Shortcuts extension is awesome.

One suggestion I have for the quick reply extension, is it possible to make the

post[/ quote]

text generated when you quote somebody appear in the quick reply box instead of going to a new page?

Yeah, I am working on that. Have no ETA on it yet, though.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Btw I made the icon in Google Docs Drawings (very close to Flash as my favorite vector editor) and you can view and download it in a bunch of formats here.

 

[Drkirby]

I am not a fan of the fact that Quick Reply shows up by default on every page. Could you add an option to make it so you can just push a Quick Reply button?

I can and I will, but I would like to know why you think this.

 

[xbhaskarx]

Test

 

[Drkirby]

I just like how the pages on Neogaf are really clean, just a wall of posts. The Text Filed at the bottom of every page just looks out of place being there at all times.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

I'm sure you'd get used to it... And it's not like it uses its own design language, it's basically a slim version of the full post box.

That said it will be on the options page.... whenever I get around to that.

 

[Dead Prince]

i have no use for the PM /foreveralone.
but the other extensions are good stuff

 

[Stat Flow]

OMG All these Neogaf Chrome extensions are awesome.

Edit: Nvm, I'm good now.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Those are all the ones I'm using. I just can't wrap my head around the keyboard shortcut one.

 

[Stat Flow]

Yeah same here.

[jambo]

I have every extension except the Keyboard Shortcuts installed, so good

 

[Zeppu]

press ?

Edit: To be fair, the user highlight post is probably the only part of the kb shortcuts i use constantly (and 't') and that would probably fit better in james' extension since it's basically an extension to his extension.

as i said, the instant subscription button alone makes it completely useful. i also really enjoy just using R to reply, and i think the switching to my user panel with g+s works splendidly. you did a great job with it.

 

[Seraphinianus]

quick reply is sweet.

How hard would it be to make a "icon next to threads you've posted in" extension? Honest question, I'm completely ignorant of extension development. Just seems very necessary with this board's layout.

No, it'll take more than that, like calling me a pussy while donning a pony avatar for instance.

haha, i don't even use ignore lists, but that might push me over the edge!

It would be very difficult without some help on Evilore's part.

That said, setting your thread subscription mode to "No email subscription" practically does the same thing, and lists all the threads you've posted in here.

Hrm actually, I might be able to use that to tell you which threads you've posted in on the main forum pages...

I wish the 'view first unread post' button worked on this forum. You can click the orange NeoGAF symbol and it tries, but it only works every now and then
