Latest feature

You can now paste images (via right click) directly into the reply box and they will be uploaded to Imgur and then the link (wrapped in IMG tags) will be pasted in the reply box at the cursor location.

Also you can drag images from your comp right into the post box to do the same thing.

http://a.pomf.se/tuqikc.webm

Get it here: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/sa-needful/bipfbhacdgoojjfblifgjadhabepbekm

Works in
� Chrome
� Opera*

*Opera is now so similar to Chrome that it can install Chrome extensions directly from the Chrome Web Store link that I posted above, but first you must add this Opera extension and then visit the Chrome store page for SA Needful

Other features
� Embed Tweets
� Embed Vines
� Embed webm video
� Highlights posts you are quoted in, works in YOSPOS too
� Old style breadcrumbs
� Can colapse and expand forum categories in the main forum listing index
� Add specific forums to your favourites, and they appear at the top of the forum listing
� Bold your username if it appears in posts

Unfinished and useless stuff
� the lazy loading of images
� snyping
� can switch on the option to show/hide avatars by clicking anywhere in the avatar area
� add a Tweet This button to your posts, to Tweet out your posts. Really slows down the page if you have lots of posts on it
� word filters
� alternate layout for the forum listing

can I get it as a greasemonkey script

It exists as an extension so that people can turn features on/off as they like, which I can't really do in a userscript. But sure, I can clean it up and deliver it as a userscript with just the good and useful stuff on

also OP please "do the needful" and change your av because whenever i see it im anticipating a funny post to its right

It looks like g0m is a fyad IK or mod just now so it would probably just get changed back, so it stays for a while

you should make it so that if someone posts .gifv from imgur it embeds it like if they post .webm, i'm pretty sure gifv is even a webm just with a different extension that makes it not embed properly.

Yeah good shout that should be an easy one

not does it work with the worlds most advanced web browser on the worlds most advanced os?

this was brought up a few times in the old thread, and then I eventually made it work and I don't think anyone used it. I don't think I can sign it with the dev cert anymore since I dont have the mac

� Livestream - so when you hit that button it makes the thread auto add any new posts every 7 seconds (might make this smaller). Unread posts are highlighted in green (I'll adjust it for amberposlater). Using the navbar at the top you can overlay video on the screen, which you can resize, move and make transparent. The idea is to use it in a thread for keynotes and poo poo. I still need to add a quick reply so that you can actually participate in the thread
� gifv links now embed the same way that webm does
� Spoiler tag shortcut - when making a reply, if you highlight some text and then hit CTRL and ALT it will wrap the selected text in [spoiler] tags
� post previews now behave as expected and will show the embeds/highlighting that the script does
� webm/gifv no longer are constrained to an arbitary height and width, and will max out at 50% screen width. The small vids won't be stretched out, and the big vids won't take up the whole screen
� the shitheap of Javascript is now less of a shitheap and easier to maintain
� removed some stuff that probably wasn't being used - the click-to-toggle avatars, the word filters, the back/forward shortcut keys
� fixed some style stuff, still more to do

Larry Parrish posted:

It looks like poo poo and all of the features are barely functional. I like making webms and gifvs embedded but just about everything else is retarded.

I already removed most of the halfassed stuff. I'm having to workaround SALR to make sure stuff doesn't conflict

� quick reply - Open the quick reply box by hitting the "Quick" button thats on any post, it doesn't matter which one you hit. The drag n' drop image upload works here, and it should also parse youtube links the way the main reply box does. When you have the quick reply box open and you hit a quote button on someones post, it will add the quote into the quick reply box. If the quick reply box is NOT open then the quote buttons behave like normal. After a post is made it will update the page with your post + any posts made in the meantime

it probably makes more sense that hitting the Quick button on any particular post would bring up the box + quote the post you clicked, i guess, maybe

also turn on sound for that vid

ive changed it so that clicking on the Quick buttons on individual posts will bring up the quick reply box with that post quoted. otherwise hit the quick button at the top/bottom of thread to bring up empty one

this should all appear sometime soon

Now that this is mostly finished it will be easy to add a quick edit ability that will look the same

# ¿ Jun 6, 2015 03:41

Valeyard: Mar 30, 2012; Grimey Drawer

i fixed the quick reply box so that it will parse youtube links with start times in them, it also adds the image tags if you paste a picture link the same way the normal reply box does, and adds the right tags to normal links

why doesn't the extension icon hide when out of something awful, chrome magic tools for youtube hides itself when you are out of youtube so i guess you can do that

you would think that it would automatically show/hide the icon based on the "websites this extension runs on" list, but it doesnt work that way. you need to manually add in some horrible code in a background script to make it happen

code:

chrome.tabs.onUpdated.addListener(function(tabId, changeInfo, tab) {
    chrome.pageAction.show(tabId);
    chrome.pageAction.setTitle({
        tabId: tab.id,
        title: "YosPlus Settings"
    });
});

ill try and fix it though because it annoys me too

Quick smilies - I stole this idea, I think from a BYOB guy, but clicking the smilies will pop up a panel with all the smilies. You can type in letters to filter out the massive list, click a smilie will add it to the quick reply box at the latest position of the cursor/caret, the smilies you use will be listed at the top for quicker access

-non ascii characters are stripped out from the quick reply box, it was causing too many issues otherwise
-emptyquote now works like the quick reply, you get warning (button turns red) if it didnt work (only happens if you attempt to post too quickly)
-the icon in the navbar only shows up on the forums now

it looks like there is no way to touch the autoplay setting for vines, it is forced to be their way which means it autoplays as it scrolls into focus (but with audio muted) (if anybody knows otherwise please tell me)

gifv/webm on the other hand is fine
