Should be back to normal. Sorry about that. I left a fragment of code in there that was causing everything to get parsed incorrectly.
FYI, none of the about:config values matter anymore. You can (and should) leave them in there for now, because they're a fallback in case anything goes wrong. But I've reworked all the preferences to use the new global storage stuff[^] in Firefox 2.

Alright Mike. This better work. I just lost all my prefs (including a few sigs) by working on this stuff. 
- Load a CP page with CPhog.
- Click on Bob in the lower right corner.
- When the lightbox pops up, click on the Debug link.
- Click the button that says it's going to wipe out the globalstorage stuff.
- Reload the forum page. This should re-import your sig from about:config. (If it doesn't, something's really screwy.)
- You should be good to go.

 The script error prevents Bob from showing up at all. Is globalstorage someplace that I can edit manually?
Never mind, Ctrl+F5 cleared that up. All better now!! ![Jig | [Dance]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/jig.gif)

Sweet.
Now I need to go find all my sigs again...

We need mail notifications for the insider-forum too. No one's responded to my post there

Where is the link for that one? Also, does every user get a personal, CPhog-type forum that we can upload images and links to in threads or is Shog as special as his mom says he is?

Shog (and all the other platinum users, sponsors, site builders, etc...) is really as special as he says he is. 
It's not really a forum. It's just a little bit of web space on the CP servers that we can upload stuff to.

So what's new in CPhog?
Also, is it possible to make the bio draggable?

OK, I'll be daring and get the update w/o knowing what it will do.
Let me log out of my bank's site first just in case.....

Plumbing - David's been rarin' to use some of the FF2.0 features for a while now (seeing as the nightly build he uses has had 'em for years or somethin'), and now FF2 is out of beta and David's out of school.
The change that required a version increase was the move from storing user preferences (editing mode, sigs, etc.) in the Firefox configuration file (about:config) to the persistent storage area. This doesn't require dodgy hacks to move data between the webpage sandbox and the Greasemonkey sandbox, so it should make code a bit simpler and more reliable in the long run. For now... well, we'll just have to see what breaks.

Here's a nuisance/bug/feature. If you click on a person's name, you get their CPhog profile on the left-hand side. If you click on it again, it goes away. However, if you click on that user's name from another link, it reopens another one. I usually can't see where the link came from since the profile popup is off-screen. Why should it matter which link you click to close it?
Also, any chance you can add an x to the pop-up profile page (say it 3 times fast) to close it? Can you make it dragable/dockable as well?

Like the popup of user info, but it seems to be fixed absolutely on the left. If you're scrolled way to the right, it does not appear.

You scroll? Ugh.
I was really hoping to find a spot where it wouldn't get in the way of actual messages, but now i'm thinking mabye it'd be good enough to just get it out of the way of the message it's attached to.

I have the Google Desktop sidebar.
Also, I noticed that your script does not enhance the email link, just the reply link. Any reason why you left that out?

Deleting a signature is fine when done from the end, but I have an empty signature in the middle that doesn't go away. Would be nice if sigs were saved across machines too.

If I recall correctly, that has already passed through Shogs mind. Dunno where it landed though.

Well then it needs to be blocked from one end so it can stay in there.

I've toyed with the idea a few times. The problem is, CP only offers online storage for Platinum members, Supporters, and a few other "special" categories. If i used it for storing sigs, it would only work for some users.
I could throw 'em in a "special" message on the users' profile page. But that brings a whole host of other problems with it - most notably, if they actually use that message board, i'd end up having to search through it to find the "special" message. It just screams "flaky".
I could use a different server, but then i have to worry about that going down. Still, this is probably the cleanest solution - especially since Marc already has his Pensieve server set up and available...
Oh, and this is my lazy time of year. "How can he possibly tell!" you ask? Well, i went for about a week with no signatures, just because i was too lazy to click the little arrow and switch away from the empty one. That's lazy, even by my standards...

Is there a way to use the IMG tag in CPhog or did Chris disable it after the abuse that one CP user caused? The HTML view displays it in the signature box, but the preview page disables it.

<img> has been disabled for a long time (maybe since the beginning?)
What was disabled a few months ago was CSS styles that set background images.
|
|

Both IMG tags and CSS background images are disabled. There's still a way to put images in, but I'd rather not make it known at this point, especially with you-know-who frequenting the forums.

Can't you send me a private message? Pretty please with sugar on top.

Well, my concern is not about mentioning it here, but about it being used commonly on the forums (such as in someone's sig), and then being banned because someone picks up on it and misuses it. I want to save it for something special...
I'd like to get Chris to make it so that members who both have been members for a certain length of time without having "bad marks" against their account and have made a certain number of posts are allowed to use the <IMG> tag.
