Clicking on the link to the chrome store doesn't work

Sometimes when I first open the page, endless scrolling doesn't work. It works once I refresh the page. I think it fails when I start a new session.

It's been requested

Just like in the Reddit Enhancement Suite, it would be awesome to have a "hide/show all child comments" feature.

grayarrow.gif and y18.gif look silly on a retina display.

Is this something that this plugin could fix?

If you take too long to post a comment, clicking submit leads to an expired link page. It also happens without the extension.

The problem is that, with vanilla HN, the back button restores the content of the textarea. With the extension, the reply box is collapsed, and when you expand it, your comment is gone.

I've lost two comments because of this.

Endless Scrolling fails to load more entries on some pages

e.g. this page: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5853900

At the very bottom you can't get to the More link because the popup with the search is covering it.

Basically, I guess like many users, I want to read most interesting comments first.

Why not going for the following algorithm:

Comment #1
  Comment #1.1 
  Comment #1.2
Comment #2 
  Comment #2.1

if (Score(Comment) > Score(NextParent(Comment))) { 
  #displayed 
} else { 
  #collapsed 
}
# with NextParent(Comment#1.1) = Comment#2
# NextParent(Comment#2.1.3) = Comment#2.2
# etc.
# and Score() from the official formula: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1781013

as initial setup and recalculated on every uncollapse event.

I can PR if desired.

When I go to https://news.ycombinator.com/news the filters are applied, but on https://news.ycombinator.com/ the filters are not applied, and the menu item is not present.

Is this by design?

Hey, the last few days I haven't been able to comment using this extension. I disabled it and I was able to comment using HN's normal style.

Thanks for the extension, I enjoy it a lot!

What do you think about adding a link below the link to the news article that points to the Google cache of the page? It'd be really useful for when the site goes down.

There is currently now way to get to the search page for Hacker News.

I switched computers and to my dismay, this doesn't seem to be available in the chrome store anymore. I love this extension, and have been using it for years. It's hideous reading the regular site again lol. Is there anything I can do to help maintain this?

At the bottom of a HN page, there is a search box that links to https://www.hnsearch.com/ ... with the endless scroll, this never shows up now. Maybe put a link to the search at the top of the page?

Original HN has higher stories/page ratio. Perhaps by a combination of decreasing article title size and article margin?

Hi! First of all I'd like to say thanks and great job on the latest update! The ability to reach the search box was really necessary.

I really like this extension for various reasons:

1. Almost white background and blue links help readability and usability
2. Reply-on-place is super useful.

That said, something that's always bugged me is that tooltips open on mouseover. I keep opening them when I don't really want to. And they don't close on mouseout! Could you make them open on click, use a time threshold or add the option to change the trigger event?

Thanks!

PS: you missed a pixel here :P

I was investigating the commenting bug a little, and I loaded the unpacked extension. It's on version 1.2.3, but the version in the chrome store is 1.3.0.

@tommoor do you need to push to master or something? Or is this simply an inconsistency in the chrome store?

Expected: When I follow a user, I would see future instances of their name styled with an orange background.

Actual: There is no visible difference. If I hover over their name, the tooltip shows I'm following them, but I see no styling differences.

I've tried disabling all my other Chrome extensions except this one, and I'm still seeing this behavior.

If I add the highlight class by hand to an hnuser element, I get the expected highlighting.

I don't remember when this started (stopped!) happening, but it's been at least a few months. Current Chrome is 57.0.2987.133, Mac OS 10.12.4

(Thanks for the extension btw, it's very useful!)

This page: https://news.ycombinator.com/over?points=100 should have the filter menu

I'd love some preferences, since some of my desired features, I doubt everyone else wants.

1. I'd like to modify your color scheme.
2. I'd like to just eliminate all comments and the comment box.

Do I need to cut my own version, or do you think there's interest in adding some options to the extension?

Hi, please consider implementing this:

1. I visit https://news.ycombinator.com/news
2. I close the browser
3. A few hours later, i go back to https://news.ycombinator.com/news
   Now, it would be nice if all the articles that have been added (that i haven't seen yet since the first visit), would be for example in bold text, so i can quickly see what's "new".
