http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/9848 Basically this script is supposed to load up and display the next page in a forum thread once you get part of the way down the page you're on. This works on other forums just fine for me, and it's awesome. However, it doesn't seem to work on 5/8. I guess this is more directed at Thal than anyone, but it's an awesome script and I'm wondering a) why it won't work on 5/8, and b) if it would be possible to make it work on 5/8? I'm sure that others here who may not be aware of it would enjoy using it too, if you are interested download Greasemonkey for Firefox and install it, then install the script. Thoughts?
Really? I don't have that problem... do you have a lot of other Firefox add-ons too? Do you have under 2 GB of RAM?
I haven't used it in a while. I think when I was using it, I had 2gb of RAM. It may work a lot better now. I switched to chrome, however.
I see... Well I think Greasemonkey works for Chrome, you might wanna give it another shot. @everyone The little notification box that slides out when you load the next page is even sitting on the right side of the screen when I'm on 5/8 so it at least recognizes that 5/8 is a forum it supports... see: So, I dunno what the deal is.
It's due to the way that we present URLs. The script needs a bit of a modification to understand what's going on... I'll see if I can toy with it in a bit.
Thanks man! Let me know what I need to edit or whatever to get it working, or even post it on userscripts.org if you're feeling more motivated.
I haven't had a chance to thoroughly look at it, but just for kicks, try this: At the top, in the comments, add the following: // @include http://www.fiveeightforums.com/*-t*/index.html* // @include http://www.fiveeightforums.com/*-p*/index.html*
I couldn't find where to edit the actual script file, so I added those URLs via the Greasemonkey GUI and it didn't do anything.
Hrm... I'll have to play with it a bit more in depth. I'll update you when I have a chance... Big move of all of our off site hardware from telefonica to global crossing at work this week, so, yeah, craziness.
I installed this script and it seems really useful. I looked at the author's page and it appears that he responds reasonably quickly when people post links to forums where the script doesn't work. You might want to ask the question there, too.
Nope, I've been having some weirdness globally on my ESXi cluster and haven't isolated the root cause yet.
Eh? That script relies on all URLs being to /showthread.php. Due to vB's developers being semi-retarded and not using absolute URLs, removing the pretty-printed URLs causes an imperial shit-ton of stuff to completely break.
