confirm your SA Forums account identity. When a third-party website
requests to confirm your SA identity, a confirmation window pops up
allowing you to

the third-party website requested if you accept. For a sample of
the process visit here.

- The context menu options to Star/Unstar and ignore a thread now appear when

- Fixed a problem on all versions of Firefox where sometimes a thread

1.15.1496

1.15.1473

1.15.1411

all color gradients.

1.15.1348
- Fixed the spacing on starred threads between the star and the
thread title/link.
- Fixed somethingawfulforum_usernameid_userid classes in

alternate menu item clicks like OS X).

until the browser was restarted.
- Added a helper menu option to instruct new users on how to edit
the list of pinned forums. The option automatically disappears
after its been used once.
1.15.1239
- Thread list highlights now have gradients to give a more
"textured" feel to the highlighting. Options for the gradient
color are now available in the color configuration dialog.
1.15.1125
- The extension now works properly with nightly trunk builds (what
will become Firefox 1.1).
1.16.1108
- Contains all fixes and enhancements from version 1.13.870 through

of the existing browser context menu (and set it to go there by
default).
- Changed the default "Go to last post" and "Mark thread unvisited"
buttons to those from ctz's excellent Opera version of SALR. The
old button icons are still available in the extension, by prepending
"OLD" to the filename.
1.13.1062
- Fixed problems people were experiencing with the behaviors of browser tabs.
- Fixed the "reanchor thread after images are loaded" feature.

on the subscribed threads pages.

the "FEATURES:" line in the header of the forum.
- Added "salastread_thread_threadid" class to thread rows
on the thread list page.

"Ignore This Thread" from the new SA Last Read submenu to have the
thread no longer appear in the thread list. It will remain ignored
for 7 days (or whoever long you have your data retention length
set to). Be warned there is currently no way to un-ignore a thread.
1.13.1010
- Made a change to allow multiple [who] tags in a quote intro
replacement.
- Fixed Multi-QuickQuoting (clicking Quick Quote on more than one
post to append the quotes into an existing Quick Quote window).
- You can now specify multiple quote intro replacements by seperating
them in the configuration with pipe characters ("|"). One will
be randomly selected for each reply.
- Added "somethingawfulforum_userlink_username" classes to the
links containing the original poster and last replier name in the
thread list page.
- Added a grenade icon to the browser status bar that appears when you're

- Fixed the ImageShack upload window to work on Mac/Linux systems.
- The changelog window that appears when you upgrade the extension
will no longer cause conflicts with the SessionSaver extension.

is disabled by default, and is available in the General
preference window.
1.13.934
- Added a "Close" button to the ImageShack upload window.
- Added a "NMS" to the checks to avoid text-to-imaging potentially NWS images.
- Added removal of "</a>" from the end of posted links (to help with quoted
ImageShack thumbnails, since the forum itself screws up the link).
- The Quick Reply window is now resizable.
1.13.914
- You can now add any arbitrary URL you want as a pinned forum on
the SA Menu through the configuration window.

appropriate [IMG] tag into your post by clicking the ImageShack
Frog button.
1.13.870
- A new page load hook should provide much better performance
for all page rewrites.
- Added a fix so quoted ImageShack-hosted pictures won't quote as
a broken [url] and </a>. (Thanks Shii)

somethingawfulforum_postbyADMIN classes should be properly applied
again. (Thanks ASk)

1.14.866
- Includes all updates made through development version 1.13.865
1.13.865

"Lowtax came out of the closet to say:" intro. This option is in the
Quick Reply preferences window.
- You can now specify how old a thread must be before the extension
will clean it out of its data file. The default is 7 days. This
option is in the File Settings preferences window.
- Split the smilies menu into three letters per submenu instead of
five, to limit the amount of scrolling needed on each submenu.
1.13.850
- Fixed new parsing code to work in FYAD, which runs on the old forum template still.
- You can now recover the text of the last post you attempted to
submit in the Quick Reply window. In the event a Quick Reply fails
to successfully post to the forums for whatever reason, you can
open a new Quick Reply window and click the "Recover Last Post"
link to pull in the text of the lost post.
- Fixed indentation of sub-sub-sub forums on the SA menu (you will
have to visit a thread to rebuild the menu to see this fix for
the first time). (Thanks Shii)
- Fixed a bug where the :cry: emote would be quoted as :crying:.
(Thanks Shii)
- Fixed a bug where if the first thread you visited in a browser
session was in the gas chamber, "Who's Online" was added to the
SA Menu instead of the Leper's Colon. (How's that for an
obscure bug?) (Thanks Shii)
- Added an option to the Quick Reply Preferences to automatically
check the "Disable Smilies" checkbox by default on Quick Replies.
1.14.827
- Includes all development version changes up to 1.13.826.
1.13.826
- Made parse changes to account for changes in the forum template.
1.11.815
- Added a failsafe to Quick Reply. If the extension detects that the
forum rejected your Quick Reply as a forged post, it will insert a link
on the forged alert page to open the text of your otherwise lost reply
in a regular forum reply page.
- The Quick Reply window will cache your forum anti-forged post key
during a browsing session when you first Quick Reply, so that future
Quick Replies are faster.
1.11.806
- Fixed a conflict with the Autofill extension.
1.11.805
- General performance improvements.
1.11.798
- Added an update notifier icon that will appear in the lower right corner of the browser when
on the forums and an extension update has been detected for this browser session. The icon will
show a green globe with an upward pointing arrow when a non-crucial update is available, and
will show a red globe with an X when a critical update is required (and the current version has
been killed). Clicking the icon will take you to the extension's forum thread to download the update.
- Removed configuration option to quote images as links, and made it
non-optional behavior. Images will always Quick Quote as links now,
just like the forum does with regular, non-quick replies.
- Added a temporary fix for Quick Quote when quoting posts that have a
text-to-image converted image to prevent unparsed HTML from showing up
in the Quick Quote window.
1.11.780
- Fixed post highlighting to use the Post ID in addition to the
post's date/time. This will prevent any unread posts from being
colored blue just because they were posted in the same minute as
the last post you actually read. (This was most often noticed
when going to a new page in a thread.)
1.11.775
- Changed Quick Reply window to pop up faster. The "Submit" button
on the window will be grayed out while it retrieves your
formkey forum security value in the background.
1.11.772
- The extension will no longer show error messages if it fails to
check the kill switch for any reason.
- Split the emoticon dropdown menu in the Quick Quote window into
subgroups by the first letter of the emoticon.

posts.

1.12.746
- Fixed memory leaks with the Quick Quote, Text-to-Image, and
Thumbnail Quoted Image functions.
1.11.745
- Fixed memory leaks with the Quick Quote, Text-to-Image, and
Thumbnail Quoted Image functions.

to work with changes made to the forums.
- Fixed a bug where quick quoted images wouldn't be replaced with
links if the configuration option to do so was set.
1.11.736
- Fixed the size of the "normal quote" and "normal reply" buttons
to work with changes made to the forums.
- Fixed a bug where quick quoted images wouldn't be replaced with
links if the configuration option to do so was set.
1.12.733
- Includes all fixes and updates from version 1.11.703 to 1.11.732
1.11.732
- Fixed the kill switch checking to not add a pause when starting
Firefox.
1.11.718
- Added an option to disable text-to-image if the containing post
contains an NWS warning (if it contains "nws",
"work safe", or "safe for work"; case-insensitive). This may not
catch all NWS images; so rely on this at your own risk!
1.11.716
- Fixed a problem where the "#" post link would only show up if you
had text-to-image enabled.
1.11.715
- Fixed text-to-image support to work better for some images, including
those where the source link was shortened with "..." by the forums.
- Text-to-image inserted images are no longer part of the link they
were created from, which should make clicking them to resize them
from shrunken to fullsize easier, since it won't pop open the
image in a new page anymore. They also only scale
proportionally down based on a max
width now, rather than both width and height. (Quoted thumbnailed
images still scale to a max width and height.)
- Added a direct link to each post (a "#" link added to the right of
the date/time attached to every post). This can be turned off in
the preferences dialog.
1.11.703
- Added the ability for a release of the extension to be 'killed',
in the event that a critical bug is found, or if changes to the forums
necessitate an upgrade. A message will be shown when you start
Firefox if you need to upgrade.
- Fixed a problem with the fallback Quick Quote functionality where
< would be quoted as <, etc.
- In the extremely unlikely event that someone were to post a link
to a torrent on a website that downloaded the torrent file from a
script named download.php that takes an info_hash parameter, the link
to it will no longer open in a new window. Perhaps if people ever start
posting torrents on the forums, this feature will be useful in preventing
unwanted blank popup windows.
- The extension will no longer text-to-image links to image URLs that
contain '?', '<<', or '>>'.
1.11.680
- Fixes to the Quick Reply window for forum 26. Forum 26 thread
highlighting is still screwed up though.
1.11.679
- Fixes to the Quick Reply window for forum 26. Forum 26 thread
highlighting is still screwed up though.
1.11.676
1.11.674
- Fixed issues where text-to-image converted images wouldn't be
thumbnailed in quotes.
- Fixed the issue where the
link's clickable area would be much larger than it should be
for a text-to-image converted image.
- Added a change where text-to-image converted images will be
constrained to a maximum width of 600 pixels, then be clickable
to expand out to the full size (much like quoted thumbnailed
images work). This behavior can be turned off in the configuration
dialog.
- Will no longer text-to-image convert urls to www.exs.cx since
they don't work.
1.11.668
- Fixed Quick Reply window to work with the forum's new formkey
spoof-prevention system.
1.11.666
- Fixed Quick Reply window to work with the forum's new formkey
spoof-prevention system.
1.11.660
- Added the ability to click on thumbnailed quoted images to toggle
them between full and thumbnail size.
- Cleaned up the Change Log, and added it to the About page in the
configuration dialog.
- Better support for emoticons in Quick Quoted text.
- Added an emoticon selection menu to the Quick Reply window.
1.11.586
- Fixed a bug with the link-to-image function that would prevent
images from loading.
1.11.585
- Added link-to-image functionality. The extension will only convert
links to URLs ending in gif, jpg, jpeg, or png (case-insensitive). It
will also handle qstats image links for Fight Club. It
will not autoconvert URLs to images that are not links in order
to prevent referrers from being spread. An option to turn this feature
on and off is in the preferences dialog.
1.11.569
- Added an option to turn images quoted by other users in their
posts into thumbnails.
1.12.564
- Contains all the bug fixes and enhancements since version 1.12.499
1.11.563
- Fixed the "Reanchor threads to targetted post after all images have
loaded" option to work with the new early-colorization code.
1.11.560
- Added homepage information to the install record (Hi roachfiend!)
- Fixed a bug where the extension wouldn't colorize the page before
all images have loaded for people who have a no-ads forum account.
1.11.549
- Fixed a bug where the browser window would think the Quick Reply
window was still open if it had been closed with Ctrl+W.
- Fixed the [PL] tag for Quick Replies in forum 26.
1.11.548
- Added an option to disable all color highlighting for the thread
list pages, and also one to do the same for posts. Post utility
icons (such as Go To Last Read) are still a seperate toggle.
- Added an option to move "The Awful Forums" from the beginning of
the page title to the end of the title.
- Added the previously missing "Always show Go To Last Icon" to
the preferences dialog.
- Added an option to swap the location of the "Submit Post" and
"Preview Post" buttons in the Quick Reply window.
- Fixed a bug where sometimes the extension would pop up an error
on non-forums sites (such as www.letstalk.com).
- Fixed a bug where closing the SpellBound spell checker window
in the Quick Reply window by using the X in the upper right
corner of the window would wipe out the contents of the reply.
- Added keyboard shortcuts to the Quick Reply window:
- Alt+S: Submit the post
- Alt+P: Preview the post
- Alt+C: Spell Check the post (if SpellBound is installed)
- Ctrl+W: Close the Quick Reply window without submitting the post
1.11.529 (Super Experimental Version)
- Added new experimental routine to add colorization before all
images have loaded.
1.11.511
- Added detection of emoticon images in Quick Replies.
- Made [URL] to [IMG] quoting an option in the Configuration Dialog.
- Fixed unpinning all forums to not restore the default pinned forum
setting.
- The Configuration Dialog will notify you if you need to restart
Firefox for changes made to take effect.
1.11.500
- Changed Quick Reply window to use [URL] tags when quoting images.
1.12.499
- Changed Quick Reply window to use [URL] tags when quoting images.
1.12.497

through 1.11.496.
1.11.496 (Release Candidate 2)
- Temporarily removed forum time recording to fix bugs.
1.11.494 (Release Candidate)
- Removed redundant Leper's Colony link from the Quick Jump menu.
- Added extension configuration option to the Quick Jump menu.
1.11.491
- Added the new Leper's Colony to the forum Quick Jump menu.
- Added a new page to the configuration dialog with version
information and credits. Also, how long you've spent on the
forums (since installing this version).
1.11.456
- Another stab at hiding other SA menus. This time it works.
- You can now add seperator lines to the pinned forum list. Click the
"Add Sep" button in the pinned forum editor to add a seperator
line.
- Saving colors in the preferences dialog works now.
1.11.442
- The extension will now hide any other SA menus installed by other
extensions. You can disable this behavior from the configuration
dialog.
- The [PL=...] BBCode tag will now be parsed when you edit a post.
- The extension is now compatible with version 0.6 of the
SpellBound
spell-checking extension. This may have broken compatibility
with older versions of SpellBound -- if so, you should upgrade
SpellBound.
- Made the configuration dialog resizable when opened from the
"Configure Last Read Extension" link on each forum page.
1.11.434
- Added a configuration option to toggle the SA Grenade background
on the Quick Jump menu on or off.
- Fixed a problem where the extension would mistakenly think it was
in forum 26 when it's not, which would cause thread post highlighting
to fail.
- The extension will now warn you if you try to navigate away from a
page that has a Quick Reply window open, and offers you the
opportunity to cancel the navigation to keep the Quick Reply
window open.
- Fixed a problem where sometimes where quoting with the the Quick
Reply window would come up with empty quoted text. This is due to
the forum's post HTML being inconsistent. If the extension can't
find the post text itself, it will ask the forum server for the
post text, which may make the Quick Reply window take a couple
seconds to appear. This doesn't apply to additional quotes added
to an already open Quick Reply window, though.
1.11.399
- Replaced the configuration page with a configuration dialog.
1.11.218
- Fixed the problem where the extension would fail to properly save
its data files on non-Windows OSes if the file's default configured
location was used.
- You can now "pin" your favorite forums to the bottom of the SA Forum
Quick Jump menu if you have the menu set to group the forums into
submenus by category. There is an option on the configuration page to
change which forums are pinned. (A better UI for this option is
coming in a future release.)
1.11.154
- The extension now correctly honors the nested SA Forum Menu
preference setting.
1.11.153
- Overhauled the SA Forum Quick Jump menu with a code submission
by Pahalial, bringing over some features from
CarryTheZero's forum menu extension. You can right-click a
menu entry to open it in a new tab. There is also now an
option to nest the forum menu by forum categories on the
settings page.
1.11.135
- The extension will now highlight threads when you're viewing your
subscribed thread list.
1.12.118
- Includes all development updates and fixes up to version 1.11.117.
1.11.117
- Added an install script for the full Mozilla suite. The extension
should install on Mozilla now -- but it's unsupported, do so at your
own risk.
- The Quick Reply window is now compatible with the SpellBound
Firefox extension (spellbound.sourceforge.net)
for spell checking. A "Spell Check" button will automatically
appear in the Quick Reply window when the SpellBound extension is
installed.
- The default settings for the "Subscribe" and "Show Signature" settings
in the Quick Reply window are now configurable. The "Show Signature"
setting will only automatically add your signature to your first post
in a thread if it is set to default to be checked.
1.11.70
- The Quick Reply and Quick Quote buttons will no longer appear
on closed threads.
- Hopefully fixed bugs where threads wouldn't properly be marked as
"replied to" for the yellow highlight on the thread list.
1.11.67
- Changed name of "Quick Quote" window to "Quick Reply". This makes
sense for both quotes and replies, whereas "Quick Quote" only made
sense for quotes.
1.12.66
- Contains fixes from 1.11.65.
1.11.65
- Fixed a problem with Quick Quote and the [SPOILER] tag.
- The Quick Quote window will now come back to the top when additional
quotes are added to it.
1.12.63
- Stable release identical to development release 1.11.62.
1.11.62
- Tighten up the thread handling code to remove some cases where
certain types of threads would cause errors.
- Added Quick Multiquote override. If the Quick Quote window fails to
appear when you click the button on a thread, try double-clicking the
button, which will override the code used to try to place quotes from
multiple posts in the same Quick Quote window.
- Added a configuration option for the storage location of the forum
list XML data.
- Added Quick Reply button which works the same as the Quick Quote
button.
1.12.52
- Includes fix for Linux users from version 1.11.51.
1.11.51
- Fixed a problem where access denied errors would occur to users
running under Linux. Settings files will now be saved in C:\ (Windows),
or your home directory (Linux) if for any reason your Firefox profile
directory can't be found.
1.11.48
- Development branch release corresponding to release version 1.12.46.
1.12.46
- Fixed a problem where sometimes the Quick Quote window would stop
working.
1.11.44
- All of SA's VBCode tags that I know about are processed correctly
by the Quick Quote window now.
- A "SA" menu has been added to the browser window to provide a quick
jump to any forum. This menu is automatically updated with every
forum you have access to the first
time you visit any forum thread in a Firefox session. The menu will
not appear for the first time until you visit a forum thread. This
menu can be turned off in the configuration page.
- Clicking the Quick Quote button on a post while the Quick Quote window
is already open will add the quote from the selected post onto the
end of the text in the Quick Quote window.
- Clicking the "Options" icon in the Extension Manager now works for
changing the extension's options again.
1.11.20
- The extension's version information has been updated to be
compatible with Firefox versions 0.9 through 1.0.
- Replying to a thread through the Quick Quote window will now
correctly mark threads as posted in.
- Usernames displayed to the left of posts will now have the CSS
class "somethingawfulforum_username_username" applied to
them, where username is the user's username with non-alphanumeric
characters replaced with underscores.
- The location of the extension's thread data store can be changed
through the configuration page.
1.11.9
- Fixed a problem where the Quick Quote button would direct the
browser to the normal reply page when certain other extensions
are installed.
1.11.1
- Fixed a problem with Quick Quote text where the quoted user's
username had non-alphanumeric characters replace with
underscores.
1.11.0
- Changed to the 'odd release numbers are development, even release
numbers are stable' version numbering scheme.
- Added "Quick Quote" reply functionality, and a configuration
toggle to turn it off. Clicking the arrow button next to the
Quick Quote button will
bring up the normal quote reply page.
- Added mouseover tooltip text for thread rating icons showing the
average thread rating and number of votes.
1.10
- The loading changes from version 1.04 have been removed.
- Made initialization considerably smarter -- the extension should no
longer fail when opening new browser windows, and will no longer
lose data if multiple instances of Firefox are started from the
Firefox icon, rather than using New Window functions within an
existing window.
1.04 (Super Double-Secret Test Edition)
- New document load detection code that should make the extension
perform all the page changes without having to wait for all
the images and stuff on the page. This is highly experimental
and may kill innocent puppies.
1.03
- Fixed the bug where an error window would appear when replying to
a thread.
1.02
- Detecting when you post in a thread now works properly if you've
previewed the post first, and no longer marks the thread as posted in
if you only preview a post.
- Added a Changelog window to the extension's About window, accessible
through the Extension Manager. The Changelog window will show once
automatically after a new update has been installed.
- Coloring for threads and posts now works in FYAD, and FYAD has some
seperately configurable colors to use on the configuration page.
1.01
- The CSS class name being created was incorrect for users that had spaces and/or punctuation in their name. This has been fixed, and all spaces and punctuation now are correctly replaced with underscores.
1.0
- The extension will now reposition a thread page to the anchored post after all images have loaded. This behavior can be disabled from the configuration page.
0.26 (RC2)
- Clicking the options button in the Extension Manager will launch the configuration page in a new window.
- The CSS class "somethingawfulforum_postby_username" will be added to each post on a thread page, where username is the name of the user that made the specific post. The name is mangled a bit to be a safe CSS class name, any non-alphanumeric character in the name is replaced with an "_". You can use your profile's userContent.css to apply specific styling to a poster of your choice.
0.25 (RC1)
- The extension will add the CSS class "somethingawfulforum" to the body of every page served up by the forums. It will additionally add a class named "somethingawfulforum_forumdisplay_php" to all pages by forumdisplay.php -- and other forum .phps will have the appropriate equivalent class added.
- The extension now works with Firefox's automatic updating system. You can now use the Update button in the Extension manager to check for/install updates, and if you have Firefox configured to automatically check for updates, it'll let you know when there are updates available.
0.22
- Colors for seen and unseen posts within a thread are now seperately configurable from the colors used on the thread lists.
- The extension will now apply one of three CSS classes to thread rows on thread list pages. You can use this in conjunction with your Firefox profile's userContent.css file to apply any sort of extra formatting you want to apply to threads. The classes are "salastread_unreadthread", "salastread_readthread", and "salastread_readwithnewthread".
0.21
- No more errors when entering The Film Dump. The extension won't work in there, but at least it won't pop up an error window anymore.
- Added the color for replied thread highlighting to the configuration page.
- You can now choose on the configuration page to put the "go to last read post" icon on every visited thread, even if they don't have new posts. This is disabled by default, which makes it act like previous versions where it would only place that icon on threads with new posts.
0.20
- When you reply to a thread, the extension will keep track of that and will highlight the number of replies column in yellow on the thread listing page. See the first post for a screenshot of this. This currently only works for replies, not for new threads, and not if you just edit a post.
0.19
- The URL generated by the "Go to Last Read Post" icon has been fixed. This got broken in 0.16.
0.18
- Preferences now load properly when you exit and restart Firefox. This accidentally got broken in 0.16.
- You can choose the order that you want the thread icons to display, from left to right.
- Clicking a "mark unvisited" icon no longer removes all the other icons from the page.
0.16
- An icon has been added to mark a thread as unvisited, which makes the extension forget you've ever been in the thread, so it will no longer be colored in thread listings. See the first post in the thread for an image pointing out the icon. You can configure the image used for this icon on the preferences page. Thanks for LonelyKing for his implementation of this which the code is based off of.
- On the preferences page, you can disable either or both thread icons, to your liking.
0.15
- Colors and icons are configurable. By using the "Configure Last Read Extension" link near the top of each forum page, you can change the colors used for thread highlighting, and you can change what image is used for the "Go to last read post" icon. See the first post in the thread for a screenshot of the link. You can also change these values through about:config (see preferences starting with "salastread."), but they won't take effect until you restart Firefox if you change them there.
0.14
- Browsing in tabs now works properly! Thanks to protactin for the push in the right direction to get this fixed. If you have any problems with tabs that aren't fixed now, let me know.
- Auto cleanup of salastread.xml is now implemented. The file is cleaned up automatically when Firefox starts. Any thread that you haven't seen a new post in within the past 7 days will be cleaned from the file. This feature relies on your system date being set properly, and may be off by 24 hours in either way depending on your time zone compared to the forums' time zone.
- New extension icon, thanks to uncut product, and new "go to new posts" icon, thanks to 8ender.
0.13
- Recognizing posts you make to a thread works now. This time I mean it. It will also enable highlighting on a thread in situations where it wouldn't work previously. I don't know if this will fix the problems that were being blamed on the tabbrowser extension problems previously reported; probably not, but it's worth a shot.
- If you've visited a thread, and the thread has new posts, in addition to being green in the thread list, an icon will appear that will link directly to the last post that you saw in the thread. (I can't link to the first new post because I don't know what it's ID is, so I just link to the last old post.) See the new screenshot in the first post for an example. This will only work on threads you've read since you've installed 0.13, since earlier versions didn't store the last post ID in a thread.
0.12
- Colors have been swapped around. On the thread listing page: threads you haven't viewed at all will be the regular forum colors, threads you've viewed but don't have any new posts will be blue, and threads you've viewed that have new posts will be green. On a thread page: posts you've seen will be blue, and posts you haven't seen yet will be the regular forum colors. See the new images in the first post for examples.
- It will now detect your new post when you've posted on a thread. The previous version wouldn't detect the new post because the URL you get redirected to after making the post didn't have the thread's ID number in it. Now, if I can't get it off the URL, I get it off the "Subscribe to this Thread" link at the bottom of the page. (This may not currently be working all that well, since it just failed for me on this very post -- I'll give it some more TLC).
- I fixed the 0.9.1+ maxversion value. I'm also doing all my development on 0.9.1 now because I got fed up with 0.9 corruping my user profile. :(
- It adds a "Configure Last Read Extension" to the bunch of links at the top of each forum page, but it doesn't really do anything useful yet. I'm working on that for the next release.
