Mad Doctor Cthulhu posted:Just curious: since I've been SALR-less for a while, I found that posting a normal YouTube link into the forums proper formatted it so it was embedded. In quick reply, this works as the link just posting as copied and not formatted to the friendly-embedded format. Is there a way to change it so I don't have to fiddle when quick replying? Looks like this is working correctly in Chrome but not Firefox; I'll look into it. e: Found the problem, fix will be in the next version.

iospace posted:Found a live preview bug: That appears to be a bug in the way the redux preview parser handles emotes. TECHNICAL EXPLANATION: Fundamentally, Redux approaches emotes in the preview by getting the list of emotes and then checking each emote to see if the text for it exists in the post and then, if found, replacing it with the emote. Since ![]() ![]() I think what I'd like to do is rework the logic to be more similar to Legacy SALR's - it should be far more efficient to get a list of the smileys that exist in the post once and subsequently search the emote list for just those than it would be to search the post again and again for each of the (dozens? hundreds?) of emotes. e: also noticed a separate bug, the redux preview parser doesn't care if you have "Disable smilies" checked astral fucked around with this message at 23:50 on Jan 16, 2018 |

Should be able to parse the smilies all in a single pass. Something like this.

Has the "hide avatar" button been added? I've seen two people post screenshots with it in them so far (as well as the "add note" button) but I don't have it, and my SALR Redux is the latest version.

One small thing that legacy SALR did and I'd like to see here is the ability to override the quick reply window and use the normal reply page (legacy just put a smaller button next to the quote/reply button).

I've discovered that the "Enable toggling of individual user avatars" requires the "Enable user notes" option to be enabled. You should make the avatar toggle option a sub-option of user notes. Under "Image Display Options", under the "Linked-Image Hover" section, the "Only show filename, not whole URL" option is not properly disabled (the checkbox can still be checked). Finally, I've noticed that the "Configure SALR" link in the forum header is no longer opening my options page. It would also be nice if we had the ability to open up the SALR options via the grenade icon, too.

So, for me, this didn't work. Yes, I updated the extension, but reloading the page and opening new pages were all broken. I had to fully restart my browser in order to fix it. I'm not sure if this was a one-time thing or not.

What does the "enable retina images" option do? For good measure, another small grab bag of entirely optional, extremely low priority feature requests: It'd be good if in the process of resizing images, there was a check if the image is 3 times taller than it's wide or more, and if so, to let go of the vertical restriction. Something like that. I'm seeing some ridiculously narrow screenshots of social media conversations that end up being illegible because their height is restricted. I'm thinking the "worst" aspect ratio for actual photos is going to be 1:2 due to there being phones with screens like that, which isn't a problem with how resizing works currently. And going back to something that someone said way back in the Firefox thread, if it's easy to force every (thread/thread page/go to last post) link on the user control panel or bookmarks page to open in a new tab, or to make that conditional to the source page being a pinned tab, either of those would help me out a lot on a touch device and on other computers where Tab Mix Plus has hosed up my muscle memory in the past.

To be completely honest I have no idea if it's possible or, if it is, what options you'd have to leave not-cleared. The best solution will be us migrating where the extension stores the data from localStorage to chrome.storage.local.

I was actually working on something like this for Legacy SALR; originally it was just going to be an option for the go to last post buttons in User Control Panel to open in a new tab. Pinned tab detection, which ought to be possible, to just make all the thread links open in a new tab would indeed be an elegant solution.

astral posted:Is image resizing even necessary these days? tbh just replace it with an optional CSS rule to set a max-width on images to be the width of the post area, and a max-height to be like 0.9vh and be done with it. We didn't have this fancy-pants max dimension stuff back in my day. In those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. Give me five bees for a quarter, you'd say. And then you'd write some Javascript to resize large images.

Sounds good to me; the forums already set a max-width so whatever setting could likely be modified to just apply some vh max-height CSS. --- Nalin posted:I've discovered that the "Enable toggling of individual user avatars" requires the "Enable user notes" option to be enabled.

Follow-up: this has been fixed for the next salr redux firefox alpha/beta release. The order of all those added buttons is subject to shift around a bit between now and final release as things get reorganized in the code so it doesn't iterate through the post table so much; the final button order is also TBD.

Suggestions. Not sure if I should log it here or not. Tried the Imgur uploader for the first time. 1] Maybe add a file selection dialog along with drag and drop?? My monitor isn't the highest res and sometimes it can be a hassle moving windows around to be able to drag and drop. 2] Default to timg instead of img? Had I not been paying attention (first time), I could have ended up with a probie for table breaking.

Samizdata posted:Suggestions. Not sure if I should log it here or not. Tried the Imgur uploader for the first time. Forums auto-scale the width on regular images, so there's no longer a need for automatic timg, or even the option for it. If you're still worried (perhaps because of a super-tall image), you can still add the `t` yourself. For the drag and drop, I don't disagree that there ought to be a file selection offered; for now, if you're on Windows I can offer some possible help: you can focus Firefox without having to move windows around by hovering said image on the Firefox window entry on your taskbar, then proceed to drag it onto the drop pad.

Maybe it could be made a default disabled option?

If you're still worried (perhaps because of a super-tall image), you can still add the `t` yourself. Well, the preview of an uploaded image looked like it might break a table, and I once got probation for table breaking, so maybe I skew a little overly cautious. Cheers for the heads up. Although this is not the only thing I find frustrating with the drag and drop. I use a program called Filebot, which is the only program I know of with its functionality and it is drag and drop only.

Three bugs to report: When hitting the "go to last read" button while "Last post button reloads the current thread to check for new posts instead of scrolling to an unread post" is checked on the first page of a thread, it will only reload the first page instead of going to the first new post. This behavior only seems to happen on the first page. Secondly, hitting a tag in the list will not put it under the cursor, but instead at the end of the message. This behavior only happens when text isn't highlighted (when text is highlighted, it works as one would expect, putting the tags around the highlighted text). e: another bug found, or well, annoyance, timg tagged images show up stupidly tiny in the preview. e2: the first bug only shows up when "&pagenumber=" is not in the URL. If you click directly on the page 1 link it will work, but if you click on the thread title it will not. iospace fucked around with this message at 16:43 on Jan 22, 2018 |

It was probably reported already, but I've got trouble actually posting on Firefox - clicking "reply" or "quote" often does not work unless you reload the page (and even then it's not always).

Do either of these apply?

No. Sometimes it just does nothing - and it's not just quick reply, but edit and quote too. Something to look into when there's time I suppose.
