You can easily fix Linkify by updating the address it works on.

The default is currently http://services.runescape.com/*

it should be https:// secure .runescape.com/*

i cant seem to change mine

went to

more tools > extensions > linkify > permissions

but nowhere can i edit it what am i doing wrong :L

also if i right click rslinkify and go to change site date thats greyed out and cant change it their either Agreed... mine is blocked from being edited also.

I even edited the background.js file by changing every instance of
http://services.runescape/*
to
https://secure.runescape/*
, and saved it as an overiding local file, which also doesn't work.

It seems I have got it working after some fiddling about.

Firstly, I went to where RS Linkify is stored on my PC. That is C:\Users\Windows10\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions\lodaipejgombneajbobileecedichlhn\3.1.9.93_0. The "Windows10" part of this address will be whatever username you've set on your PC.

I changed the URLs in the following places:

Folder "scriptsUniversal" > Background - changed all URLs relating to RS I could find.

Opened the "manifest" file and modified the URLs there

Folder "opt" > "js" > "options"

All files were opened with Notepad. After making changes to the files, I just hit "Save".

As a precaution, I also went into every other folder, opened the file and made any changes to any URLs I found (that I thought may need changing). I don't think this is needed though.

Then I made sure "Developer mode" was enabled on Chrome - simply to go the "Extensions" page and you should see an option to enable it. Clicked on "load unpacked" and navigated to the "3.1.9.93_0" folder, then clicked it and hit "Select folder".

I originally didn't notice an error in the Manifest file, so after changing all the URLs and still finding Linkify failing to load, I re-opened Manifest and saw one of the URLs was missing a simple "*". I was messing about with it a few days ago and gave up.

After I corrected the error, Linkify loaded. I think the Manifest file is the most important one to edit, but I did all others too.

Noticing some errors reported on the extensions page, but it doesn't seem to be affecting the functionality of Linkify. Though, it does feel like the RS website has slowed down since Linkify started working. Not sure if that's related to the errors being reported, or something else.

EDIT: Just editing the manifest file seems to be enough to get it working. .

These are the errors I'm getting: https://i.imgur.com/GQbUb3g.png

Linkify still seems to be working. Not sure if I should be concerned about those errors or just ignore them since it doesn't seem to be stopping Linkify from doing its job. .

Went into Chrome Canary with broken Linkify to try and see what actually makes it work. Turns out just the URLs in the manifest file need tweaking in order to at least make Linkify run and function. You get more errors on the extension page, but it doesn't seem to stop Linkify from doing its job (so it appears anyway). .

Thanks Singularity. It's working now <3

I too came across some errors you had during the week trying to fiddle around with the files, but ended up giving up until the weekend came. Come the weekend and you've already found the fix! :P

Linkify is working for me now, however this keeps showing itself on my extensions tab.

How does Linkify determine what clan someone is in if their adventurer's log is private?
Playerdata api

---------

might be worth noting too that there were a couple forums.ws replacements needing to be made, as the webscript file extension is no longer present in the urls. It redirects entirely but still worth having the direct link. Unless im going crazy and it was my extension having those....but i swear linkify had a couple to replace too.

Those can be ignored, it's not necessarily part of the extension as I get them with my personal extensions. But I also have chrome dev so...might be similar things that canary's branch is having compared to the stable versions.

RE: corrupt extension -

Did you copy the files and save them somewhere safe, and then load the linkify unpacked in the chrome extension page? Or are you editing the file in its main folder?

Cause if you edit an extension in the appdata files, it'll display that error and repair will fetch the current version and override all the changes....and if say the overall extension is updated, it'll override it also when the update is fetched. Can I turn in a paper without citing all sources?

I'm just gonna wait for an update to this, cba to fiddle with the broken links.

It's unlikely going to get updated. Indy seems to no longer be maintaining this.

All you have to do to get it working is go into the manifest.js file (open it with Notepad) and modify the http://services part of the Runescape URL (use CTRL+F to find them, there's only like 4 to edit) to https://secure (leave everything else as-is). Then save it, go to the "extensions" page on Chrome, enable Developer mode, click "Load unpacked", navigate to the "3.19.93_0" folder and finally click on the "Select folder" button. It should work after that. .
