Thread-based Post Link

**Wyzcrak** · 03-29-2006, 03:29 PM

There was recent talk of the forums not providing a thread-based link to a given post in a thread. I've added just such a link for each post in each thread. I did this for myself by authoring a userscript for use in the Greasemonkey Firefox extension, and I've decided to share that userscript here. Anyone may use it if he likes. I've called it, simply, Thread-based Post Link.

The userscript links the image to the left of a post's timestamp to that post, but the link displays the post within the context of the entire thread instead of displaying only the post.

threadbasedpostlink.user.js

If you have any questions about how to install or use this, please do use Google to educate yourself minimally about Greasemonkey before asking questions.

If you do use this, please do provide feedback in this thread, even if it's just to let me know you like it. If you see room for improvement, please discuss.

This script is depreciated by our latest forum upgrade, which provides this functionality by default. I have removed the link from my signature. If anyone sees any other of my userscripts which is similarly unnecessary, let me know.
