Greasemonkey phpBB ignore?

[Thumper's Evil Twin]

Buming this because I've finally decided that killz0ring Jack is beneficial to my health.

That last script doesn't work if the user has a space in their name.

Names with odd characters can be escaped in CSS rules with the backslash:

Code: Select all

.phpbb_user_Unarmed\(inparans\)

Edit: can't do johann_p or Ol'Grumpy but got Jack. That has no spaces, comrade. Also woom's code is looking for * which is heavier and you don't need hide anyway. You unhide and close.

Code: Select all

  .phpbb_user_Jack :first-child > *,
  .phpbb_user_Jack :first-child +td { display: none; }

How do we do odd characters for dummies, Unarmed?

Here is wig_out_on_me's user script altered so that it can work with usernames with spaces in them. No other changes except for general formatting and some comments to help me read through it.

Code: Select all

// @name          PHP User Hide
// @include       */viewtopic.php*
// @description   hides / unhides a user's posts - based on User Classes by Unarmed

   var users = [];
   var cookieName = "phpUserHide";
   for (var i = 0; i < document.cookie.split('; ').length; i++) {
      var oneCookie = document.cookie.split('; ')[i].split('=');
      if (oneCookie[0] == cookieName) {
         users = oneCookie[1].split(', ');
         break;
      }
   }

   // Find all the usernames in the page
   var results = document.evaluate("//span[@class='name']/b", document, null,
      XPathResult.ANY_TYPE, null);
   var resultNodes = [];
   var aResult;
   while (aResult = results.iterateNext())
      resultNodes.push(aResult);

   // Loop through every user post on the page
   for (var i in resultNodes) {
      var containingRow = resultNodes[i].parentNode.parentNode.parentNode;
      // Collapse whitespace
      var user = resultNodes[i].innerHTML.replace(/ /g, '');

      // Flag whether the user is in our hide list

Spewey: Thumper is referring to this script, which does not require CSS selectors in userContent.css. For my older user script, however, you should be able to hide johann_p or Ol'Grumpy with <code>.phpbb_user_johann_p</code> and <code>.phpbb_user_Ol\'Grumpy</code>, but I haven't tried it myself.

[Spewey]

Edit: ok, if I ever doubt you again, please remind me not to.

Unarmed has made a version that seems final enough to me. You can get it here.
Remember you need to install Greasemonkey* before you can right-click and "Install User Script..." on that link.

• Double-clicking a username allows you to almost effortlessly killify or unkillify.
• Tooltip and cursor change on hover over name to emphasize how it works.
• Killified victims' name remains with a show/hide for individual posts.
• It should work on other phpBBs as well.
• The list goes in a cookie so you need those too.

Super special thanks to asqueella and wig_out_on_me! You guys all amaze me.

I've been much a happier person since I started using the "Greasemonkey phpBB ignore?" script. One definite advantage is that I no longer find myself trying to gouge my eyes out after trying to comprehend the incomprehensible.

*You may want to try Greasemonkey 0.2.3 unofficial with trunk/nightly builds.

[Thumper's Evil Twin]

Yeah, no css. Just Works. Rock.

[TychoQuad]

Spewey, the link to greasemonkey 0.2.4 you provided didn't work! someone help, i downloaded the latest version, unaware that it was broken in the nightlies!

[Unarmed]

http://s93731204.onlinehome.us/firefox/ ... re.user.js

[Spewey]

oops, The 0.2.4 was altered by asqueella and posted at EM GM page. Maybe he will see this and tell what the story is with the 0.2.6 he's got up there now instead as far as working on trunk builds.

Here's another 0.2.3 (I believe) that he mentions here which you can try in the meantime:


I talked to the GM author and he said 0.2.6 had bugs on the trunk builds but it seems to work for some people. Over my head....

And Unarmed's link is the official source for the script in case he makes any updates in the future.

[asqueella]

I did not touch 0.2.4.

[Spewey]

Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to imply anything bad, that's just what I remembered the EM page had on it before. I'm just confused now.

[Mook]

There is a copy of a pre-0.2.7 in the mailing list that's supposed to work. I personally have a hacked 0.2.6 that works too (see the same list for the changes I made).

[rootyb]

Should this work on an SMF board?

You have no idea how much I'd love to use this, but I've tried double-clicking the name of the person I want to ignore, and it just sends me to their profile. (SMF 1.0 Beta 5 Public, if that matters)

If phpBB and SMF aren't *quite* similar enough, any chance of getting a port?

[Unarmed]

It'd need to be adapted to work with SMF, since it produces different HTML.

[rootyb]

Yeah, kinda figured as much.

Anyone fancy doin it?

lol

[Mook]

Yet another slightly modified version of Unarm's script. link

Changes:
- Differentiates between "John Doe" and "JohnDoe"
- Changed double-click on name to a [X] on the side, so I can double click on the name to select it and copy (useful for replies).

The changes are probably not significant enough to warrant keeping, I'm just posting this so I will be able to find it again after I wipe my profile
