I'm having a slight problem with this. I am unable to login while greasemonkey is enabled. I have to disable it, and then login, then re-enable it. reason?
 
Cristatus, the anchor script was written by Alone, not me. I just screwed with it to move the link to what I thought was a better place. Plz update your post 🙂

You made it better, more worth using. You can keep the credit, I don't mind. 😉

I think it's from one of my scripts, but I don't know why it does it.


Anywho, I updated the "Prettier Kill Truncation" for the new forums.

Edit: thanks again to hg403, the login button now works 🙂

How can this be edited to show the new forums properly?

Right click on the GM icon on the bottom right of FF, click manage user scripts, uninstall the one you currently have, and install it again from userscript.org

 
I've created a script to add a last page button inside threads:
Last page button

Couple things though, first you have to edit the script to set your 'Messages Per Page' setting that you use on the forums, it's set to 20 by default.

Also it can be very slow in bigger threads. I tested it on that big 3600+ post thread in the motherboard section and it took up to 40 seconds before adding the button.

It was fastest when I used a low post per page setting, and also dragging it to the top of the script list in greasemonkey management helped some.

I don't really consider it a good option, but I went ahead and posted it anyway. Hopefully they have this feature fixed on the boards soon so it won't even be necessary.

For the people that were annoyed by the delay in the css scripts (like me), there's a firefox extension similar to greasemonkey called Stylish intended for css style changes and without the delay.

Unfortunately opera doesn't have an alternative to using scripts, you can see the differences here: http://userstyles.org/stylish/differences

I converted my scripts that altered styles over to stylish and now there's no delay on applying
http://userstyles.org/users/2994

This definitely makes using some of the scripts more usable
 
so remove the GM script and install stylish script.

thanks for all your efforts hg :beer:
 
It's too bad that it's not possible (AFAIK) to convert the truncation scripts to Stylish.

Cristatus, would you update you OP with this. I'm sure alot of people will find it handy.

If i haven't said it yet... this is a great thread! :thumbsup:
 
<div class="FTQUOTE"><begin quote>Originally posted by: DerekWilson
9) no last page link in threads
***FIXED

13) truncated category names in side bar and top menu
***FIXED</end quote></div>

A couple of the scripts are no longer needed now 🙂


edit- looks like truncation is gone in the sidebar menu but it still exsists at the top & bottom of each page.
 
looks good to me! another :beer: for ya 🙂

some of these should be on the FT team's tab, btw...

edit- ahh, it reads well but still messes up when posting a quoted reply.

This script will change the <div class=FTQUOTE> stuff to <q> ( and </div> to </q> ) when posting a message with quoted replies,
http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/10439

The previous script only fixes the display of posts that have a broken nest
