Customizing CFC

[Abaddon]

Fair enough mate, just a friendly poke

if i go quick reply, then chose to go advanced.. for some reason it works!

If there is a way to port these scripts to Google Chrome, Id be a happy poster right now.

Edit: I just tested one of the scripts and apperently Google Chrome has it built in and treats it like an extention. . Though still waiting for the one variant that hides the infractions tab (though odds are I am going to have to make that on my own)

What is it about the infraction one that does not work? I just tested it and it seems to work fine.

Remove marquee banners​

Removes any marquee tags on CFC

Installation link

Here is an alternative:

@-moz-document domain(forums.civfanatics.com)
{
div[id="latestNewsHeadlines"]
{
display: none !important;
}
}

Works in Firefox, and needs to be to the file "userContent.css." In Linux this file needs to be created in ~/.mozilla/firefox/[cryptic_profile_name]/chrome/; or you could just rename and use the already existing file "userContent-example.css". In Windows and MacOs it should work somewhat analogous.

That's a great idea! Overriding the CSS is in fact more efficient than my implementation.

REQUESTS:

1) When you have someone on ignore, there is still a little box in a thread informing you that they posted, in the place in the thread where their post would be. I don't want to know that they posted, because the mere knowledge that they think they are worthy of replying to me makes me fly into a rage. Is there any way to remove that box?

2) Is there any way to make it so I can't see stuff other people quote by that person? Like maybe some script that blacks out any blocks of text of the form: [.QUOTE=ignoredperson x [./QUOTE] (without the .), where x is a variable for text of any length? I think in principle that would work, if it were possible to make.

Basically I want my ignore list to make it so that I can't even tell that that person is a CFC'er, to the maximal extent possible.

 

[Till]

This script should be what you are looking for.

Any progress on maximising the size of PM's?

 

[Till]

I think i've finally fixed it. Tested it for quick reply, regular reply, and new pms. In all cases, all of the available width is used and the resize buttons work. Sorry for taking so long.
(Just reinstall the script)

I love you Till

The Ignore script doesn't seem to be working correctly for me. When I click to ignore a thread in OT, nothing happens. Also, clicking the box that gives all the settings and help buttons doesn't do anything for me either.

All of the other scripts are working fine for me.

 

[Till]

It works for me. Does Tools->Error Console show anything related to the script? (Best to clear it and then reload OT)
Do you have any extensions that block javascript?

Does Tools->Error Console show anything related to the script?

Sorry I can't give feedback on that right now, I'm having some trouble with Chrome.

Do you have any extensions that block javascript?

No. Every other script was working fine.

EDIT: I guess that script just doesn't work in Chrome. :/

 

[Till]

Oh, you are using Chrome? That might be it, then. As far as i know, Chrome doesn't have full greasemonkey support yet. (Still would be curious about the error message, though, maybe i can code around the problem)

 

[Zack]

Some of the extensions work, some don't. In Chrome the scripts just install as extensions (as CivGeneral said). The ones that don't (that I know of):

• Ignore
• Notes
• Custom Control Panel

Ones I know work:

• Quick Reply and PM box length
• Thread Starters in separate column
• Hide infractions from User Account page
• PM notification icon

Not sure about the rest.

 

[Till]

Thanks for the info, Zack. Looks like Chrome lacks the support for greasemonkey variables then. That's a difficult problem to circumvent.

Thank you

I get the following error message when trying to install the "PM Notification Icon". Do you have any suggestions regarding what I need to do to complete the installation process?
Thanks Till.

 

[Till]

Would i be right to assume that you downloaded the script and then tried to execute it? This is not how it gets installed. If you are using Firefox, you first need to install the greasemonkey extension (linked in the OT), then click on the installation link. On Opera, you have to create a folder for the scripts and store them there, as described here. In Chrome you can install the scripts by simply opening the installation url, i think.

 

[Pacioli]

I use IE8 and I believe I simply opened the installation url.
