Hi :)

I noticed something a little while back and wasn't sure if I was only imaging things haha but I figured I would ask just in case.

I seem to remember being able to left-click anywhere on a QFC at the top/bottom of a thread page and it would automatically highlight the whole string of numbers, but that hasn't worked for a little while now. Was that a Linkify thing?

Hey, I recall that too, but you can do it via the #PostNumber just at the bottom left of each post

Although I just noticed something with it - all 3 options copy the same info to clipboard,
just with different text preset.. Think the second one is meant to link to the thread instead of the selected post?

E: The page number buttons at the bottom work too, can right click page 1 and get link info copied to clipboard for front page of thread

The #PostNumber quick link option is a life saver, but I was thinking of these ones:



In the screenshot, the whole QFC line is highlighted (manually). Previously, clicking anywhere along the string of numbers would automatically highlight the whole line, rather than the usual method of dragging the cursor to highlight the QFC to be able to copy it to the clipboard.

Also works on thread titles in subforums too - and, in case you'd ever need to,
it works on the yellow Linkify buttons for return to subforum and refresh page!

E: Or anywhere that links to the forums!

Hiya Erehk :)

Everything Amaethwr said! Pretty sure he knows the ins & outs of RS Linkify better than I do :)


I remember that text selecting too, but hadn't noticed it was gone until you mentioned it. It was a forum thing not a RS Linkify thing. I have no idea why they removed it though.

I can add that feature back but I'm thinking about re-doing the RS Linkify Quick-QFC thing and making it like it was before the forum re-skin. It used to have its own small interface that provided a few options and was much more intuitive.

The current method via right clicking has a big limitation, if a link isn't right clicked shortly after the page has loaded it wont work (you need to right click a couple of times). This is because RS Linkify stops running shortly after it has done all its work and frees up an memory and resources it may have used. In older versions this wasn't an issue as the instructions for the Quick-QFC were passed onto the web page during page load (not to the browser when clicked).

That's why I'm thinking of re-doing it, though I have been a bit preoccupied lately playing with new toys (camera).

I will eventually put my camera down and do some coding. Then I'll get something done and improve the entire Quick-QFC system. I do have some other updates almost ready to push out (black/white list rework). I just need to write some options for it.... Soon ™ :)

Not sure about that - you'll have a much better understanding of everything behind the scenes :P

And that is one cute spider! I love them, like this dancing spider with lightsabers
