Does Chrome auto update extensions?

It should but you can go into your extensions tab, expand advanced developer mode and hit update extensions.

Something might be fishy...I still don't see the new version popping up. I'll take a look when I get a chance.

Trying to install manually without uninstalling the old one gives an error about an attempt to downgrade. Fishy indeed.

Yeah I probably forgot to update the version number somewhere. I'll get a fix up soon, I'm seriously swamped with other stuff at the moment though.

Just bringing up my idea for being able to disable thread highlighting again for whenever you have time. You said it'd be possible to do on page 1.
Thanks again for your work on this, the jumplists are great. Would it also be possible to remove things from the jumplist to only have the forums I browse?

Sorry, I know I just suggested a new feature when you're swamped with other stuff please don't hate me.

Forgive the stupid question, but when I've installed extension the quick navigation button I can see in the screenshots doesn't seem to appear. Do I need to change an option in chrome? I can see the button to change the options for SALR in the omnibar but nothing else.

This is something I've had planned, as well as being able to pin your most frequently read forums or other config options. I'm tossing around ideas in my head on how to implement this but it's probably next on my todo list.

Are you viewing threads with multiple pages? It won't show unless it has to. And I'm noticing as I post this that it doesn't show while posting either.

Sorry when I said the quick navigation I meant the jump bar! The one where there's a pulldown menu which has bookmarks for each forum :)

Edit: The problem seems to be that the link the OP points to has installed an older version and it doesn't seem to have updated automatically for some reason :( I've looked through to find the newer version to install manually but all the links seem to point to that one. (and by older it's saying 0.3.2.) I'm not sure what i'm doing wrong >_<

Is it still outdated? Auto-updater should have fixed it by now if I didn't totally bone the updater with the 0.4.7 release.

I'll try to get this fixed during the weekend.

Edit: Nevermind, should be working in a few. Just letting Github update it's cache.

Edit 2: I've confirmed that the right file is uploaded but I still see the wrong one coming from Github. So let me know if it's still not working for you guys.

Well poo poo. I did that and it installed 0.3.2 and I don't even have an options page anymore. :(

Edit: The link in your OP points to a github file that was uploaded on 2009-09-28. That might explain something.

That was the file I originally uploaded on Friday (it was apparently hanging around in my project directory, oops). I uploaded the proper one tonight. If kcncuda is grabbing the correct one it's possible Github works off of a content-delivery network that's taking it's sweet time updating.

Weird. What version of Chrome?

Also, I realized last night that the reason the upgrade took so drat long was because I forgot to remove the .git/ directory before building the package. Whoops. I'll make the filesize smaller for a 0.4.7.1.

That would have been my guess for the problem. I know they've been playing around with their support for CSS3 dropshadows, so who knows what kind of weirdness could show up as a result on a dev version.

Correct, I got the problem in Chromium dev version, works fine in Chrome.

Is there a way to get the menu icon to always be somewhere even if I'm not at the forums? I like to navigate to the forums without having to already be there.

I'm not familiar with that feature. What is it?

Thanks for the congrats everybody. I'm testing out a minor build with a toggled page navigator, and on a whim I tossed in an experimental fix for the ghosting issue. I can't reproduce it, so I'm just speculating on the fix. I'll probably package it up tomorrow.

And to effectively explain why I haven't gotten around to fixing this, here's an obligatory pic of 10am beers on a beach in Honduras with my wife last week :smug::



Changes have been moved up to Github for anybody interested in testing it.

Would it be possible to add a button that when clicked opens each unread subscribed thread in a new tab? I have some extension made for greasemonkey but it opens each thread in a new window which is much slower.

Perhaps we should consider setting up a UserVoice page.

They tend to be pretty popular and easy to use for tracking feature requests.

(The free plan should be fine; an example of it is available here, for my Skype bot)
