My chrome extension for QtDevNet
-
Special for “Project Elf”
I've developed a tiny and simple extension for google chrome (it's my first experience)
!http://habreffect.ru/files/dd2/ac97464ac/newqtdn.png(QtDNBadge)!It shows your badge on the site, your points and count of needed points to the next level.
You need to be authorized on site."Download":https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/mhbcdhmbdinbggoongcnmblnclloilbh
"Sources":https://gitorious.org/qt-devnet-chromium-extensionQtDN Team published API, Thanks QtDN Team.
And now, Enjoy!
-
You need input your QtDN id (the last number in the URL of your profile) on the options page and wait ten minutes.
can you point out exactly where this is? not able to find .. i'm on chrome 8.0.552.x
-
Prefs->Tools->extensions
Find this ext, and click "Options" link
-
ah thanks, did it just now ... me primarily a FF user :)
how easy is it to extend this to show the number of new posts and on click take me directly to the "new posts" page
-
For it need adding authentification :) I think about it, may be I'll add it to next version.
Though... May be auth don't needed.
-
Would be nice to have that as FireFox extension. someone familar with creating FF extesion and want to adapt that?
-
Gerolf, If I had more time, I will do it, but I busy now.
-
Is it impossible to update info after new id was entered? It will be much more user-friendly I think, but don't know if it is possible in chrome extensions.
Also I'm not sure about new posts counter. Devteam should clarify here will it affect count of new posts or not (just because you have already entered the page to check this counter).
-
Denis, update after new id was entered - possible, but now I don't know how.
-
Then maybe refresh button for manual refreshing? As workaround before updating on new id will be done
-
vass, is it possible to show the mad scientist animation in the badge? uses flash i think
-
nice one. Thank you
-

-
Chetan, I try animate Mad Scientist badge and add new posts
-
thanks Vass :)
-
Update plugin now!
New posts were added.
User Id not needed anymore, but you should authenticated in QtDN.
Chetan, please, check Mad Scientist flash badge.
-
This looks like a sticky!
Installed and loving it :)
-
Awesome! Well done, Vass! :)

-
Just installed here, really cool!
thanks, Vass! :-)
-
Awesome! Good job Vass :)
-
Thanks all for you gratitude. And now, new update: New Post counter direct on Icon now.

-
It's working great :)
Do you still need the Options->id? Since it seems to pick this up automatically.By the way for the points, I see 4175/2162 but wouldn't it be nicer to have 4175/6337?
-
xsacha, ID not need now, I forgot remove it. But now need be a auth user into QtDN.
About points, If I accept your offer then subtract in mind for get diff. I'm lazy :)
-
wow perfect :D congratulations :D
-
This is pretty neat! Congratulations and many thanks!
-
It looks grate! Thanks :D

Chetan, please, check Mad Scientist flash badge.[/quote]Thanks Vass for taking this up, but for some reason update doesn't seem to be working on my chrome 8.0.552.215
I go to tools->extensions-> and update ... still doesn't seem to work. I even uninstalled, reinstalled etc ... still expects me to type member id, only then the badge comes up and with no animation or new posts count
any help?
-
chetankjain: I have exactly the same version of Chrome installed and it works like a charm here.
Vass: Thanks for the plugin. One question: What is the new posts count actually about? Does it count new comments? When I click on it I get to a page which lists considerably less topics listed than the new posts count said there would be.

Tobias: Lucky u !
I think this is the same issue ... if you see the main page of devnet, you have "X New Posts" .. is that number correctly listed for you compared to the actual New Posts + New replies ?
-
The plugin works fine on same Chrome version here too. But I didn't upgrade it at all.
I have never understood the X new posts thing. Is it random or what? I find it very confusing as it will say 130 new posts and then when I click on it there's only about new 10-20 replies. Most of which I have already read.
-
i finally got it working after uninstall and reinstall chrome :P
Thanks Vass, this is great !
-
Alas, I'm a FF4 user... :-P

Shouldn't that be ∞ points to next level? (Hey, you could even add that to the display as a feature!)
-
Gordon, -∞ will be better. We are Mad Scientists, do you remember? :D
-
Chetan, your Chrome bug is my blame. I forgot update version number. Sorry. Now it's ok.

thanks :) I'm finding it very useful ...
ps: any chance of adding counter/link for new wiki/blog entries :P or am I seeking too much ;)
-
Chetan, wait weekend. :) I busy now. :(
-
bq. For the Project Elf
Will be nice if the extension count the points earned in the week.
I know, the points before extension install not be computed.
-
Cochise, I will try on weekend
-
New version available. I add point counter on one calendar week (from Monday to Monday). I don't tested it very strongly, please, try and let me know if you will have problem.
