Is there a reason why, in image threads, replies quoting images don't show the images anymore?

Well now I'm not able to get what I getting before. Here's what I'm doing:

1. Post using Quick Reply
2. Edit that post using Quick Edit
3. Click Quick Quote of post above mine
4. Comment on that quoted item
5. Hit Submit.

I would get a new post instead of an edit. Now I'm getting this instead:

1. Post using Quick Reply
2. Edit post using Quick Edit
3. Click Quick Quote of post above mine
4. Never actually retrieve quote.

FF 2.0.0.6, SALR v1.99.070730

O.K....I haven't had any "in thread" coloring in a long time. Is there a setting I need to look at?

Also, how the heck do you mark a thread unread?

Check your Control Panel options.

Go back to the forum (eg GBS) and click the red X on the thread.

I'm not an SALR fanboy an admittedly have most of the SALR button stuff turned off, but the button issue was fixed not 6 posts above your first one.

The highlighting thing is a bit odd but it doesn't bother me enough to care.

The only complaint I have is my options (Uses the SALR style buttons) keep changing as I upgrade. But I haven't done any testing so unless you know why this happens without doing any work please ignore this.

It's happening to me with other settings too. I keep having to disable inline images and/or shrinking every time I upgrade along with the forums style buttons. Come to think of it, the replies shoot to the reply column every time too.

I don't get the forums menu, it shows when the page is loading but when it's finished it disappears.

You probably have "remove SA footers/headers" enabled on the General tab.

Would it be feasible to set up SALR to indicate when the OP has posted again in a thread? It's a bit annoying to go look at the most recent posts when you see there are, say, 20 of them, and they're all people going "This is a nice thread. I like it." as they wait for the OP to post.

I think the easiest implementation would be to check the "who posted" link in the forum view. Maybe SALR could keep track of the count and if it sees the OP +1 it would put a star next to it or something.

I'm not a programmer, but that would seem to be the easiest non-crawling method.

So how do i install this on the new greasemonkey? I haven't been able to find a way to install it and the old greasemonkey sites I used to help me say I need to use the install script options in tools. But I don't have under my tools section.

I got the latest build of firefox if that helps :(

1. Copy the script into notepad
2. Save as meh.user.js
3. Drag into Firefox.

You have to browse the the forums and then close/re-open Firefox when that happens. It's SALR wanting to refresh the menus (which can't happen unless you close/re-open Firefox)

It looks like it's CSS related, so try clearing your cache or force a reload of the webpage via (I can't remember if it's shift+f5 or ctrl+f5).

edit: My Quick Reply had the same issue as dirtbag (Submit button greyed out) but the [[retrieving post quote]] stuff cleared after a few seconds.

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.

Feature request:

Can there be an option to hide the web 2.0 "edit bookmarks" button that appears at the top of the bookmarked threads page? It never appears until after the entire page has loaded and it makes it so the entire page always jumps down a half inch just as I am about to click something. :argh:

It's supposed to be hidden but it has been broken longer than it was working. It bugs me too though.

No tags. about :config (worked before test #2)

Even adding an open bracket and closing bracket is enough to break it. [ ]

Upgrade to XP SP3 and get all the other Windows Updates available. There is pretty much no reason to be running SP2 any longer.

As for the other issues, I'm not really sure. I'm running the same builds you are and don't have the issue.. Are you running NoScript or any other similar script blocking addons?

You could probably just check the Leper's Colony if it's recent.

I actually had this exact scenario come up yesterday when someone had a Twitter post about one of our mutual associates being probated. It ended up being bogus but it could have been real! IT COULD HAVE BEEN REAL!

Then again in the eh, 8 years I've been a member that's come up all of once, maybe twice. Still if it's not work to code we may as well add it on, eh?

[redacting this part because I realized that it'd be trivial to get the userid and spit out the URL to the Leper's Colony]

edit 2: Oh gently caress it's been over 8 years? I feel so old :(
