Ninth edition of the posts in a day record

[rolesfamily]

Well I've never done a RD before, and I hope to impress you. I've had years of forum experience, so that has to count for something. I'm gonna try and do my best, I'm pretty confident I can do well.

It's all about breaking the post record!!! No slacking!!!

I'll still beat you ...

Anyway, this year, we need to be on point to break the last year mark. I think Roles will make up for the absence of Hunch, but still.

August 2? Great!
Incidentally, that would have been my late grandmother's birthday, but anyway!
I may attempt an all-nighter, but I'm worried that that may affect my ability to post.

Yeah I am pretty much an Admin

[Serza5]

Thinking about who shall be doing all nighters?

[Master]

I'm going to try, this year. There's nothing on the tables that I'm aware of at the moment that'll prevent from doing so, nor are there any prior trips that'd tire me out beforehand.

Having reflected on this somewhat, I've decided to post my quick-rainbowise GreaseMonkey script to the forum. If anyone wants to use it on Record Day, go ahead.

Code: Select all

// ==UserScript==
// @name        RaymanPC Rainbowiser
// @namespace   http://www.vigovproductions.net
// @description Adds a "rainbowise" option to the RaymanPC posting form! :D
// @include     https://raymanpc.com/forum/*
// @version     1
// @grant       none
// ==/UserScript==
var GoogleJQuery = document.createElement('script');
GoogleJQuery.src = 'http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.4/jquery.js';
GoogleJQuery.type = 'text/javascript';
document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(GoogleJQuery);
var TekTekColour = document.createElement('script');
TekTekColour.src = 'http://tektek.org/color/color.js';
TekTekColour.type = 'text/javascript';
document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(TekTekColour);
var GradientSet = document.createElement('script');
GradientSet.innerHTML = 'var gradientType = "rainbow";';
GradientSet.type = 'text/javascript';
document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(GradientSet);

//var gradientType = "rainbow";

var fieldset = document.getElementsByClassName("submit-buttons")[0];
var submitButtonsHTML = fieldset.innerHTML;
fieldset.innerHTML = submitButtonsHTML + "<input type='button' tabindex='8' name='rainbowise' value='Rainbowise!!!' class='button2' id='rainbowise' /> <input type='hidden' id='gradient_repeat' value='1'/>";
document.getElementById ("rainbowise").addEventListener ( "click", RainbowisePost, false );

function RainbowisePost(zEvent) {
    var rainbowised;
    if (window.location.href.indexOf('posting.php') > -1) {
        rainbowised = MakeSFX($('#message') .val());
    } else {
        //Quick reply uses name instead of id
        //alert(document.getElementsByName("message")[0].value);
        rainbowised = MakeSFX(document.getElementsByName("message")[0].value);
    }
    
    var result = rainbowised;
    if (window.location.href.indexOf('t=885') > -1) {
        //This is Mot à Mot !
        result = rainbowised.replace('>', ' [img]https://static.raymanpc.com/Img/icon_arrow.gif[/img] ');
    }
    if (window.location.href.indexOf('t=886') > -1) {
        //This is Word to Word !
        result = rainbowised.replace('>', ' [img]https://static.raymanpc.com/Img/icon_arrow.gif[/img] ');
    }
    if (window.location.href.indexOf('posting.php') > -1) {
       $('#message').val(result);
    } else {
        //Quick reply uses name instead of id
        document.getElementsByName("message")[0].value = result;
    }
}

You can install it using the GreaseMonkey extension for Mozilla Firefox, and I think (I'm not sure) that Google Chrome has similar functionality built in.
The script adds a "Rainbowise!!!" button to both the full and quick-reply forms, which turns everything inside the posting form into rainbow text. In the topics "Mot à Mot" and "Word to Word", it also replaces the ">" character with a green arrow icon.

That's a pretty cool code Plum.

I shan't be doing an all-nighter like I've said before; but I hope that doesn't make you guys begrudge me?

[sonicbrawler182]

Thanks, got it working in Chrome!

[PluMGMK]

Ah good, that does work! It's been a while since I've toyed with this kind of stuff in multiple browsers!

[Shrooblord]

Yes, roles, I now hate you forever.
Why, why, why do I haate you a lot for-e-veerrr??

[Master]

Hmm, I've tried it on mine, doesn't seem to want to play ball. I'm on Chrome also.

[Hunchman801]

I'm not going to be pre-writing any posts. Is that unwise? I've decided against it.

I'm definitely doing it if I get a chance and I believe everybody should.

[PluMGMK]

I made myself a list of topics that I might try starting come hour zero (or maybe hold them for a while so they don't get buried…).

[sonicbrawler182]

Download the free Tampermonkey extension:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/deta ... fkfo?hl=en

And from within the extension, click "Add New Script", and then copy and paste Plum's code over whatever is in the new script file. Then click save (floppy disc button). It will automatically be enabled after saving.

[Master]

Ah, okedoke. Thanks, Brawler, I'll give it a shot tomorrow, I'm heading off soon now.

[Earth Gwee]

I probably should let people know that I'll be in Oregon from July 3rd to the 13th. Anytime before or after those dates would be good for me.

[Master]

The date has been confirmed to be August 2nd, so that should be convenient for you.

[Earth Gwee]

As long as nothing else goes on that day, yes, it should be.
