    Also, the latest cccp 3.12 has a bug:

    if ( numbered_paginations != undefined && numbered_paginations.length > 0 ) {

    should be:

    if ( numbered_pagination != undefined && numbered_pagination.length > 0 ) {

    I’ve fixed this in 3.13

    Surely it is possible to at least return to the old font

    If you are running Greasemonkey with cccp or stfu, just add the following line to the end of your script:

    document.body.style.font=”13px verdana,clean,sans-serif”;

    And a Permalink Dario@2474

    Actually I think a separate script with just this is the easiest solution.

    We release it at version 0.1 and never update it.

    Any other adhoc persistent changes like these can be done with a manual edit of that script.

    What do you think Dario?

  7. [Dario: I see you are in the group.

    I’m off to bed now, so I’ll leave you to do as you will.

    I assume you have no problem editing it?]

    Hmmm, not sure I can see any way to edit/upload cccp there? Need to be given permissions or something? It can wait till tomorrow

  12. Morning all. Have installed 3.13 and it works fine, but still does not work if the font-change line is included in the script (at the bottom).
    document.body.style.font=”13px verdana,clean,sans-serif”;

    I tried changing the typeface from “13px verdana” to “12px Arial”, but it made no difference. Both Verdana and Arial are in the MS Word’s font list. I’m using Firefox.

    Thanks for the work you guys are doing.

    P.S. I am a C++ programmer, but have no experience with JS or web programming. You can at least talk to me like a programmer, though.

  13. triton:
    It’s the quotes. The are messed up in the translation through HTML.

    Try:
    document.body.style.font="13px verdana,clean,sans-serif";

  16. The only problem I see now is that the page no. in the URL doesn’t match the actual page no. except for the last page. Not such a hassle, though, since you just have to do a mental subtraction. (I do change the URL directly sometimes if I want to look for something posted much earlier, such as the previous day).

    That can’t be help I’m afraid.

  21. If you are running cccp and stfu make sure you run cccp first, I think.

    The last time (stfu executing before cccp) I had the latest comment as “x show comment”, cccp did not get run.

  22. Dario@69

    Been tinkering with a config dialog. Should be able to make most cccp settings optional without too much trouble.

    Thanks!

    Let me know when it’s ready and I’ll post it up.

    Seems to me it might be better if you join forces with Musrum and get such enhancements into the standard version of cccp.

    Already done. We’ve just started the ‘Better Bludging’ taskforce

    I love it!

    Can I join too? Perhaps as a software tester?

    Sure. I guess, until we get a better approach: we can just keep everything in this thread and only announce after enough people give the go-ahead.

  25. Dario@73

    Perhaps we should incorporate cccp & stfu?

    I’m not sure that’s a good idea.

    stfu is a bit controversial (William is not a fan).

    It is the dark-side of cccp :devil:

  28. Oh, this is now marvellous! The font change makes everything so much more readable, everything is in its right place, and that ghastly chartreuse is restricted to heading blocks and minimal links.

    Thank you musrum and dario and all others who have helped out.

  33. Musrum, Dario

    Bloody brilliant!

    Everything working fine for me in Chrome, even the font is great except in the box for typing comments.

    Great work guys. (need a thumbs up emoticon)

  42. BTW, we are on a feature freeze over the long week-end.

    So it might be best to just collate the outstanding feature requests.
    1. Italics with square-bracket quotes.
    2. Emoticon drop-down list

    What am I missing?

  50. This little black duck:

    Yes.

    Yes.

    Yes.

    YES!
