    FiMFiction Enhancer

    Hello everyone!

    Despite saying that I have no time, I've written a new Greasemonkey Script, and now it's 5 in the morning. But it was fun!
    When I say new, I mean that it's a completely rewritten, better version of my old FiMFiction Enhancer script. It now has the following features:
    * Customizable Settings through the Fimfiction Settings page

    Fighting is Magic - A Scriptable AI

    I've come across a program again I've written some time ago while going through my files, and I've decided to share it with you. Although it might not be useful to everyone.

    Remember how Fighting is Magic got leaked? I downloaded it, too, to take a look at it. And I have to say, it is so well done for such an early stage! Simply brilliant, my compliments to the developers!

    Read Later Limitations

    It's a sad limitation or maybe even a bug that, if you want to search in your ReadItLater-list with the search box, you begin browsing all of the stories. I noticed, however, that a simple "&read_it_later" in the url filters the results again to your read it later list.

    How to manually install a Greasemonkey script

    I've written a blog post about a script of mine which aims to enhance the read later list this page in general. Unfortunately, as I didn't have the notion or muse yet to sign up at userscripts.org, the script is only in text form there in the post. I can see how this would raise the question on how to install it.

FiMFiction Enhancer · 3:50am Mar 16th, 2013

Hello everyone!

Despite saying that I have no time, I've written a new Greasemonkey Script, and now it's 5 in the morning. But it was fun!
When I say new, I mean that it's a completely rewritten, better version of my old FiMFiction Enhancer script. It now has the following features:
* Customizable Settings through the Fimfiction Settings page
* You can hide the "Mark all Read"-Button (I never understood why I'd click that, for storys I've marked as my favorite!)
* You can set how your "Read Later"-List and your Favorites-List should be sorted by default
* Story summaries can be automatically expanded, either everywhere or only on the story's page
* Same with the new chapter lists
* Images in comments can be automatically expanded

Note: The script does not yet support the feature to only expand smileys. I already know how I might do it, but it's a bit more complicated.

I've also finally made an account on userscripts.org, and uploaded the script there. Here is the link for you: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/162118

Maybe I missed some vital piece of information, but this has to do. I'll go to bed now.

I'll upload as soon as I can get to good internet connection.

Also, can you help me with a problem? The feed page tries to load every relavant post since the dawn of creation which royally screws up my crappy internet connection... *deep breath* just like my little brony used to. Is there a way to make it only load that last 20 or so and then stop unless I ask for more? Otherwise chrome crashes like a newbie snowboarder

922870 What is loaded already when the Greasemonkey script is executed is loaded, there is no way around that. But I might be able to sabotage knighty's loading function and replace it with a button... I can't look into it in the next few days, though, so it can take some time.

... It's kinda fun to say to sabotage knighty and mean it :twilightoops::pinkiehappy:

922870 Good news! I couldn't keep my thoughts off the script, and wrote a bit more. It turned out that disabling automatic loading was easier than I thought. Long story short, with the newest version it's now possible to turn off automatic loading and replace it with a button. :twilightsmile:

924581 awesomeness, you has it

I'll try to download tomorrow after work, and let you know if all is well

924581 Works perfectly! Thank you so much! :twilightsmile::twilightsmile::twilightsmile:

927279 Glad I could help :yay:
If you notice any bugs, just let me know :pinkiesmile: I want this to be as good as it can get

you wouldn't know how to empty the deleted note file, would you?

2065868 Not right now, but I could find it out easily enough, I guess. But could you clarify which deleted notes you mean? I'm not sure which part of the website you are talking about.

I really need to update the script, anyway, this would be a good opportunity to get into it again.

2069520 when i delete note from the notes system, communicating with other membes privately, they all go to a file. problem is that just stay there and i can't figure out how to empty it like you can on a typical email page.

2069528 Oh I see! Okay, this might get complicated. You see, my first guess is that these notes are stored on the server. This makes the most sense. But I, of course, don't have access to that. Therefore, I can only delete them if knighty has already built a function to delete notes, but not connected it to the UI. Otherwise, I cannot help.
I could maybe just hide them, but that's a bit hackish and would not work across devices. That would be something like a recycle bin behind the recycle bin...
But to say more (to say if it works or not), I need to look at the code, and I can't do that right now, I have to catch a train. I'll look into it later today.

2069528 I found the code that performs actions on the messages, but it is like I thought. There is nothing on the client side that I can do, the server manages the messages, and I can't figure out a command to delete them. There probably is none.
You might have to ask knighty himself, so that he can implement that function into the server-side code. I might be interested in that now, too, because I now have a test message in my recycle bin that I sent to myself and now can't get rid of :pinkiecrazy:

But, sorry that I had to disappoint you :unsuresweetie:
