If you edit the ffexp.php document, there are instructions in there for how to change the switches for various alternatives like downloading rooms. Unfortunately I can't for the life of me figure out where in the document to make the change to download my Direct Messages. - Hookuh Tinypants

— FFexp.php & FFExp2HTMLex.php - "Paging Edition" (customization of Claudio Cicali's FF backup and archive-to-HTML scripts by Micah Wittman. App wrapper integration by Micah Wittman) - Micah

So is there a consensus on how far back we can query? My ff_stream_username.json file goes to about 2010 Feb 9 - I think it's exactly 10101 entries - Ankush Narula

For those of us who aren't really scripters or programmers, how do we use this? I was able to use Claudio's script on MacOS via the Terminal. Not sure what to do with this, though. - Spidra Webster

"n i" the error said? - Micah

Having trouble with the FF Bookmarklet in Chrome or other browsers? This is an updated version thanks to Micah and sizofroid. To make it easier to install, I'm now hosting it at my site, so you don't have to jump through hoops, you can just drag the updated version to your bookmark bar. - Stephen Mack

It doesn't seem to be able to handle https web pages (with Windows 7 and the latest version of Firefox) -- is there a fix? - Sean McBride

For the background on this code see ( http://friendfeed.com/ffhacks... ). By request (CAJ) shirt.woot (actually, *.woot.com) photo auto-select feature added. And Jimminy asked about getting youtube thumbnails working again. Done and done. Stephen's request was a too-tall order, unfortunately. The code that limits selections to a maximum of three images resides in the https://friendfeed.com/share... page, and even with a browser extension it can't be fiddled with because though DOM access is available, the page javascript is off limits—browser extensions are sandboxed. (It's a shame, too, 'cause it looks like a simple matter of changing: var kMaxThumbnails = 3;). Source gist: https://gist.github.com/wittman...

Wow, that escalated fast. :) Welcome, orfe. - Micah

For the background on this code see ( http://friendfeed.com/ffhacks... ). Okay, so what's this change you ask? The current design of flickr seems to break the image selection function of the bookmarklet (scan the original code and you'll see an ancient workaround that's no longer relevant). Tonight I wanted to quickly whip up a solution, couldn't get image selection working, so took a different tack. When the bookmarklet is clicked and you're on flickr.com the code will auto-select the "main image". This means it works on a single image view. So anyway, that's my hack for tonight. See above link for how to self-host on dropbox. Source gist: https://gist.github.com/wittman... Minified gist: https://gist.github.com/wittman... - Micah

If you could get it to work with shirt.woot, that'd be swell. (Meaning, due a change on their site, images are no longer easy to capture.) - CAJ was here

The newly working Friendfeed ffbookmarklet solution came from Stephen ( http://friendfeed.com/friendf... ) via an anonymous code fixer. The following extends the solution so you can host and control your own version of the code on Dropbox. - Micah

Thanks, Micah! Posted: http://friendfeed.com/ffhacks... - Stephen Mack

If you have the Chrome extension already installed, it will auto-update in a short while. - Micah

No change to the stand-alone extension for Firefox, etc, yet. - Micah

*BUMP* because a few weren't around at 3 am when I clicked post. - Micah

What should be next, Readability? - Micah

Cool! - AJ Batac

Hmm, Pinboard's API looks good, and lots of people love it. Oh, it looks like I'll have to pay $9.78 to test (to do anything). - Micah

WHAT IT'S NOT: Just a current page bookmark app. WHAT IT DOES DO is add a gold star UI to save in-page links intelligently to Pocket (http://getpocket.com, formerly Read It Later). - Micah

Sorry, Erwin, this extension happens to be Chrome only. - Micah

This is in the simplified userscript that can load into Chrome and Greasemonkey/Firefox. If there's interest, I'll repackage it into a Chrome Web Store extension next. Enjoy! Source: https://github.com/wittman... - Micah

Image zoom still works for me in Firefox. - John (bird whisperer)

New project: PHP7 Framework. Free download at http://phpkode.com/p9270 The PHP7 Framework provides a hybrid API for easier Web application security. It adds an exceptional filter feature on the superglobal input variables. - iris2027

Release [v0.1.6] - Significant performance improvement by fetching profile image url from /contactme page rather than main profile page - http://gist.github.com/raw... - Micah

Hey there, ffriends :) Scanners indicate you may have an interest in the stackoverflow family of sites (bear - it works on serverfault.com too). If you could test drive this new userscript (greasemonkey/greasekit - tested on Firefox and Safari) that would be splendid! Give Feedback? - that would bump it up to awesome! Thanks everyone. - Micah

*Sunday Night bump* - Micah

For anyone using the Firefox Custom Buttons² Extension, this is now available as a button: http://custombuttons2.com/en-us... - April Russo (FForever!)

What about the other FriendFeed Hacks group? - Andrew Trinh

April, not necessarily only user scripts. Both hacks shared to group :) - Micah

Any way you could get this to work for people that aren't logged in or that don't have a friendfeed account? Currently, the anchor links only show when a user is logged in. I have been trying to help someone get this to work for the last few hours and he has an issue with his ISP that prevents him from being able to log into friendfeed that we are still trying to find a way around. In the mean time, he is very interested in this particular script working more than any other, whether he is logged in or not. - April Russo (FForever!)

friendfeedCommentAnchor [v0.1.1] - Logged out mode works now. http://wittman.org/project... - Micah

Thanks! - April Russo (FForever!)

See also http://translatorize.com for ports of this script to other sites. - Micah

hey Micah, might wanna think about updating this due to the new 'disable comments' feature - chrisofspades #FForever.

Thanks chrisofspades, I'm looking into this right now. - Micah

UPDATE [v0.3] (announced here: http://friendfeed.com/friendf... ) - Fixed to accommodate FriendFeed's new Disable Comments per post option. Also added script Configuration option hideCommentDisabledPosts - if turned on will hide all posts that are set to Comments Disabled (but will not be hidden if you are the owner of the post). - Micah
