Sorry Kieren, I did see it. I have a few unknowns with the poll. If it's embedded in an iframe I can't interact with it at all. All I can do is display frame contents.

This called same domain policy. It means what's running or loaded from a different server can't interact with the parent page and vice versa. This for security reasons and of course presents huge limitations but it's for the greater good.

I need to see what Blasty comes up with, I'm kind of leaving it up to him. Basically he can pull his hair out over this one :)

Would it be possible to make an option to like/dislike posts? Just an idea... it probably isn't or you'd have already implemented it, I guess :p


I've been asked about this before. There are a few issues. All RS Linkify users are anonymous, so I have no way of knowing if people like once or 1000 times.

But there are other issues too. It depends on what you want to like. Likes for threads and or likes for posts both have different pros and cons. All the data has to be stored somewhere, users local storage is out of question (holding every like/dislike for every thread and perhaps every post is just too much). An external server isn't practical because again I can't authenticate users. That leaves storing the data in posts. The problem then is many automated page requests to tally the data.

It's really easy to do, if you have access to the server that's hosting the pages. But I have access to browser (with huge limitations) and nothing more. Sadly it's not something I can do properly.



Alright, I thought it'd be something like that :(

That kinda scared me off :3

It's a bit sad they can't actually implement these features themselves honestly, or hire you to just do it for them.

Since there is so much spam / trolling going on, can you add a 4th option to color the background for those we black list as HLF Trolls? This way I can skip reading unnecessary posts that for sure we would know is just spam/junk posts.

Lol, almost every single post to almost every single thread would be black.

Shh...
No one will know...

For some reason the quote button is not working for me at all o_O

Edit: Works with Linkify disabled. I can't even plain-text quote something.

Edit v2: Managed to fix it.. "Better popup blocker" stops it from working. Something to do with JavaScript I imagine?

@Wakko C R, for now the best solution I can think of is use clan or friends list and add the names you want to ignore. Then set the background colour to the font colour that's used in forums. It's not the best solution but it works.

I'll edit this post with the font colour in just a sec.
Edit: here's the hex for the colour: #CCCCCC


@MaxQ, study hard, will miss not seeing you around as much.

@Rowley, It must be. The RS-Linkify quoting function comes from an external script that I wrote to fix the problems with quoting edited posts. The script has nothing at all to do with pop ups, so it's either blocking or conflicting.

Anyway glad you got it worked out :)
