I absolutely forbid my code to be reused in this way! �

But seriously it helps a lot. If it's going into SALR it would work better with some JavaScript that creates a link to show the image, as originally suggested in QCS.

Revolvyerom: Nov 12, 2005; Hell yes, tell him we're plenty front right now.

Hm, it appears to also hide all the emoticons, which I guess shouldn't surprise me. Not really a big loss though. So worth it for the insta-load times in image-heavy threads.

Filburt Shellbach: Nov 6, 2007; Apni tackat say tujay aaj mitta juu gaa!

If you want to show emoticons then using this ought to fix it:

code:

/* hide images from read posts */
tr.seen1 td.postbody img.img,
tr.seen2 td.postbody img.img {
    display: none;
}

Images linked in a post get the (poorly-named) img class, but emoticons don't.

# ? Oct 15, 2008 13:24

Revolvyerom: Nov 12, 2005; Hell yes, tell him we're plenty front right now.

That seems to re-allow images if they're quoted (timg perhaps?)

But at this point I'm nit-picking, really. This is awesome.

Filburt Shellbach: Nov 6, 2007; Apni tackat say tujay aaj mitta juu gaa!

~~Ah, I'll complain at somebody to add the img class to timg.~~

And: no problem! I'm glad other people find it useful.

edit: Oh wait, those images have the timg tag, so we can already remove them:

code:

/* hide images from read posts */
tr.seen1 td.postbody img.img,
tr.seen2 td.postbody img.img,
tr.seen1 td.postbody img.timg,
tr.seen2 td.postbody img.timg {
    display: none;
}

Could someone help me get this working with Stylish? I don't really have much of an idea what I'm doing. Here's what I've done so far:
Chose "Site rules..." from the Insert drop-down, selected the "in domain" radio button, and typed "forums.somethingawful.com"
Pasted the code from Sartak's latest post between the curly brackets.
Didn't see a change in image behavior.

Sorry if this is redundant or retarded, but am I right in thinking that SALR doesn't work with Firefox 3.1 beta 1? Trying the latest nightly still gives a compatibility problem.

I get a weird issue - the forum header shows up most of the time even though I checked the option to hide it. Sometimes it hides it properly but that is only when I re-login to SA or something. Is there an option in adblock to get around this?

I think my quick quote/reply problem (Submit grayed out) is more or less all the time now (again). Any ideas why this happens? It's rather unfortunate because that's one of my favorite features of SALR.

As far as I know, the only time I've ever run into the Submit button being greyed out is when I change pages on the thread. I don't know that it'll make any difference, but what OS/FF version/SALR build are you running?

ryanbruce: May 1, 2002; The "Dell Dude"

Interestingly enough, I think it's the same issue I occasionally get with the greyed out "OK" button when I get the Open/Save dialog box. If you click out of the Quick Reply window and go to another tab/whatever, the Submit button usually returns for me.

This may be incredibly obvious to some, and I'm not sure if this has been pointed out in the thread already, but if you are using Firefox 3.1 and your quick quote/reply buttons aren't working(loading quotes forever), make sure that you have http://forums.somethingawful.com set to be allowed in exceptions under tools-->options-->content and tools-->options-->Privacy in firefox. Something in those options changed in the new version and doing this fixed the quick quote/reply for me.

Just wanna echo this for anyone still having problems. Worked great for me! Now I just have to get used to clicking the big button instead of the >> again...

top of youtube, click on the country next to the language and it lists them all. It's probably safer to use something like (w{0,1}[a-z]{2})\.youtube for forwards compatibility.

I suspect there's nothing specifically incompatible. You can always grab the Nightly Tester Tools extension to force it to run anyway, despite what the compatibility says.

You can force it on by turning off extension compatibility checking in about : config
extensions.CheckCompatibility <boolean> FALSE
extensions.checkUpdateSecurity <boolean> FALSE

You can then install and use SALR in 3.1, and it works fine up tot he latest nightlies, though occasionally it loses the thread highlighting, but it'll come back after a few refreshes.

Does the quickreply window keep coming detached for anyone else? It almost always gets detached before I post, with no way of reattaching. This should be a relatively simple fix, just have it remember what thread you're replying to and not change it. What's the point of detaching, and how do you fix it?

I was using the GM script that biznatchio wrote to do this (and I added * to the included pages, to let it work everywhere) but I've switched to the SALR one now that it supports international Youtube.

Can you tell me how to modify the Greasemonkey script so it works for international Youtube everywhere?

The quick reply window is such a mess of code, I'm going to try and replace it with a popout panel instead (similar to Firebug's). That'll fix the detachment stuff and some other things as well.

Assuming the script you refer to is this one, this should do the trick:

code:

change:

function sayt_vidClick(e, linkNode, videoId)

to:

function sayt_vidClick(e, linkNode, videoId, videoSub)

=====

change:

embedEl.setAttribute('src', "http://www.youtube.com/v/" + videoId);

to:

embedEl.setAttribute('src', "http://" + videoSub + "youtube.com/v/" + videoId);

=====

change:

function sayt_prepareVideoPlayer(linkNode, videoId)

to:

function sayt_prepareVideoPlayer(linkNode, videoId, videoSub)

=====

change:

	linkNode.addEventListener('click', function(e) { sayt_vidClick(e, e.target, videoId); }, false);

to:

	linkNode.addEventListener('click', function(e) { sayt_vidClick(e, e.target, videoId, videoSub); }, false);

=====

change:

		var hrefmatch = href.match(/^http\:\/\/(www\.)?youtube\.com\/watch\?v=([-_0-9a-zA-Z]+)/);
		if (hrefmatch)
		{
			var vidid = hrefmatch[2];
			sayt_prepareVideoPlayer(thisLink, vidid);
		}

to:

		var hrefmatch = href.match(/^http\:\/\/((?:www|[a-z]{2})\.)?youtube\.com\/watch\?v=([-_0-9a-zA-Z]+)/);
		if (hrefmatch)
		{
			var vidsub = (hrefmatch[1] == null ? "www." : hrefmatch[1]);
			var vidid = hrefmatch[2];
			sayt_prepareVideoPlayer(thisLink, vidid, vidsub);
		}

Edit: Cleaning up the formatting of my instructions a little.

Updates!

Two new options are available. `Don't convert links in read posts` and `Convert inline images to links in read posts`. The first is enabled by default, the second isn't.
If you find any bugs with the unconversion, post a link in this thread so I can see what's breaking.
