Yeah for some reason the link to all the people who posted in a thread was removed from the reply column. The old Opera thread got archived I think. Here's a fixed version: http://junk.ionmine.com/salr2/salr2_main.js

And um, sup Firefox guys.

Opera Last Read seems to be broken again: everything was working as normal when I first got on today, then I left for a while to go rake leaves, without closing the forums or my browser. When I came back, all of my marked threads were grayed-out and the option to jump to the last read post had disappeared, even though it said there were new posts in the threads. Restarting Opera, my computer and the salrd2_background.exe did nothing to fix it. :(

Yeah the feature which was removed the other day apparently came back today. New version once again here: http://junk.ionmine.com/salr2/salr2_main.js

If for some reason the change is once again reversed it should work in both cases now.

Yeah, if anyone wants a hand setting up SALR for Opera just PM me or something (if you really care and don't have plat then moho at the domain RedKazan posted above [ionmine.com] works for email). I'd remake the thread but honestly I don't really wanna make it seem like the thing is where I'd like it to be currently. It does function though, if you're willing to work with it/around it. I plan on doing a significant re-write when Opera gets HTML5 client-side storage, but until then I'd kind of rather keep it in legacy user limbo.

Continuing my parasitic relationship with this thread, fixed Opera SALR version here as usual (specific post linking changed to new '&goto=post' method): http://junk.ionmine.com/salr2/salr2_main.js

Thank you moho/Dr. Video Games 0070!

Are the thread tools to be left broken, such as the ability to dim or hide stickies?

Oh yeah, I kept meaning to fix that. It still worked from inside threads so it was kidna usable, but more annoying. Anyway, uploaded a proper fix to the usual place: http://junk.ionmine.com/salr2/salr2_main.js

I'm having a weird problem that I think is related to Opera SALR - every page on the forums will load everything it needs to and then get stuck trying to load... something, it says "Images 0/0" in the progress bar. It doesn't happen in Firefox and it goes away when I turn off Javascript, so I'm guessing it's SALR. Anyone else having this problem?

Best way to check if it's SALR is to rename the SALR .js files to .blah or something instead of .js so they're no longer parsed by Opera. Then browse and see if it still happens. Can't say I'm experiencing this problem but it's possible that some other thing I'm using is preventing it.

Well, it's not SALR, nor is it any other UserJS that I'm using. I think I've narrowed it down to the external ads, since those are the only things that don't load and I'm not currently blocking them.

I have an old UserJS that's supposed to remove those ads, since they used to mess up Opera's Back and Forward functionality, but it doesn't work anymore. I'd like a working one, though, if anyone has one, I'm sick of having to hit Stop on every single page to get the SA favicon to show up and the Images 0/0 thing to go away.

I had as issues in the past, currently I run http://junk.ionmine.com/salr2/misc_userjs/saforums-jsadclean.js and have http://somethingawful.crwdcntrl.net/* content blocked via Tools->Advanced->Blocked content... due to issues with extremely slow or incomplete loads much like you describe. I believe this also solves multiple forward/back issues. Hopefully this is kosher since you're actually having problems caused by ads, I tried to PM you but it seems you don't have plat. Not promising these will solve your particular problems obviously, but they helped with some of mine.

Unfortunately, these didn't fix it :( It's happening on two completely different computers, too, one with Opera 9.27 and one with 9.20.

Alright, well *something* I have is causing that not to load in my main Opera install, but since I don't know what I tested with a blank slate and made a new version of the cleaner (which was outdated), new version located here. Give that a try, it was literally the only drat thing running in Opera and it seemed to prevent the i-frame load for me.

As above. Current version still works for me, Sereant Hobo reported it's broken in the latest weekly but I'm not targetting those at the moment.

Hijacking this thread over Opera SALR again: it's stopped working for me unexpectedly on Opera 9.27. Nothing really caused it, it just quit doing anything at all - it's like I never installed it. I reinstalled the daemon.rb file and now the daemon won't even load anymore - daemon.log says this:
code:
daemon.rb:5:in `require': no such file to load -- base64 (LoadError)
	from daemon.rb:5:in `<main>'
Reinstalling Ruby 1.9.0 also didn't help. I vaguely remember having to change something in daemon.rb to get it to work when I first installed it, but the original thread is long archived and I don't have archives access. Anyone know what to do?

For starters I think various changes in 1.9.0 (final) have made the daemon incompatible, for one thing "base64" is no longer part of the standard library. My recommendation is to just run it with 1.8.6, 1.8.7 may also work but this is untested.

Assuming you get the daemon running and still nothing works in 9.27, first thing to try is load up a thread and type "java script:alert(window.SALR);" (remove the space) in the address bar and see if it shows you a huge rear end bunch of code. If you see code it means at least SALR is loaded, otherwise not. If you see code, next thing to check is is the daemon is running right by loading up http://localhost:55055/page.css or similar. Also checking the Opera error log is probably a good idea, as is seeing if any page changes are made before it stops working (e.g. addition of "1" and ">" links in the sidebar).

RedKazan posted:


And yeah everything RedKazan posted is correct. As is the fact that 9.5 completely breaks Opera SALR in a way that's basically unfixable short of everyone hosting their own external proxy or some horrible bullshit like that. At this point pretty much the only ways forward are for Opera to add a bypass switch for the security feature that breaks SALR, or for functionality to be added to Opera itself that obsoletes the need to use the daemon.

It really sucks that 9.5 prevents SALR from working properly, I want to eventually upgrade but I really rely on SALR and I don't want to switch to Firefox. Hopefully there's some way around that, but I really don't know where the priorities of the Opera dev team are (removing shell context menus from the transfers window? Really?) so I'm not sure they'll be in a hurry to change things for the sake of one addon.

Edit edit: Ok, stopping the daemon before I edit the hash file and then starting it again seems to have killed the problem, finally.

Yeah, the only thing really in my favour here is that the change also breaks some intranet-type applications and development environments where content is served from a mix of internet and LAN IPs. So I'm not strictly the only person complaining about this, hopefully they'll hear one of us.

And yeah you gotta shut down the daemon before editing the hash file manually since it's stored in memory, and if there's bad data in there, the daemon will just rewrite it to disk next time it receives a change. No idea how that crap could have got in there, but at least you found the problem.
