CPIggy 2.1.0 Released

*** Curent users please read installation instructions ***

2007-11-04: CPIggy 2.1.0 has been released tonight.

CPIggy is a fully-functional ignore script for use on this BB. As many of you know it's been a work in progress for several weeks. Tonight it reaches what I consider "feature complete" and the only major bug has been corrected. So tonight I'm releasing it as 2.0.0.

Having trouble? Want to help? There is a tech support/issue tracking thread in the Media Center forum:

http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showt...ghlight=cpiggy

Features:

* Places a new item in the ChiefsPlanet main menu to launch it's configuration dialog
* Maintains a list of ignored users and performs the following for them:
  * Removes threads started by them from forum listings
  * Hides posts by them
  * Hides quotes by them in other people's posts
  * Removes comments from them in your rep screen
* Places an icon beside user names in threads that will add them to your iggy list
* Will optionally remove the two links to the Washington DC forum
* Supports update checking (both manual and automatic daily checks)
* Blocks threads based on a keyword list

Upgrading from Previous Versions:

1. Open your CPIggy control panel and copy down your iggy list
2. Go to Tools->Greasemonkey->Manage User Scripts
3. Click the CPIggy version you currently have installed
4. Check the box that says "Also uninstall associated preferences"
5. Click the Uninstall button
6. Install 2.0.0 from this link: http://userscripts.org/scripts/source/12975.user.js
7. Reload any open ChiefsPlanet pages
8. Replace your iggy list

Installing for the first time:

1. Install Greasemonkey from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/748
2. Restart Firefox
3. Click this link: http://userscripts.org/scripts/source/12975.user.js
4. Click the "Install this script" button on the right
5. Choose "Install" from the dialog that pops up
6. Refresh the CP page
7. Click the new "CPIggy" menu option on the ChiefsPlanet main menu
8. Add users to the Ignore Users list
9. Enjoy a CP experience free from those users that just won't get banned

A Final Word (for now):

I would like to thank everyone for their kind words and support. I was frankly a little surprised at how well this project was received. There are several other features (like checking the first post of each thread and making determinations of a "spam" type score) that would be great but are simply too costly to do from the outside looking in. If anyone has some ideas for handling that or any other features please PM me, the source code is in a Subversion repository and I would happily accept patches. If someone is contributing I'm willing to give them write access to the repository as well.

So what's next? Well, I'm still looking into busting a cap into that POS editor we have on here. Due to the high volume of code that would be required and the need for a significant number of binary files it's not really feasible as a Greasemonkey script. However, it is prime for a Firefox plugin. On this one I don't believe it will be ChiefsPlanet specific. I'm looking at something more generic that you could point at any text area on any website and get a better editor. I'll keep you informed on how that's going.

Again, thanks to everyone for using CPIggy and making my efforts worthwhile.

Then re-add cpiggy. If that doesn't work you might try reinstalling Greasemonkey.

figured it out I had contracted the "i_m_a_dumbass_and_disabled_greasemonkey" virus

I'm keeping an issues log over in the Media Center forum. If you're having problems with CPIggy please drop a post there so I can keep the list updated and mark them off as they're fixed.

Very cool. Thanks for all the work. One thing - the CPiggy link doesn't seem to show up anywhere when the "style set" is set to "at work". Sorry if this has already been brought up. I didn't read the whole thread.

Yeah, you have either add a real block word or just add some crap that will never match like "kdfjadf23wga".

As for blocking the whole forum, that's a new one.

**morphius** · 11-05-2007, 03:07 PM

can it be used to block specific user avatars?

AdBlock Plus does a really good job of that.

Adding some jibberish to the block word solved the problem. Everything is working now.
