Hmm... Totally disappeared after I installed FF 3.0 and GM .08 tonight. Re-installed and it shows in my manage scripts, but is not even listed in script commands.

BluAlien    says:

Where are the actual comments stored? Is there anyway to back them up? Also editing the comments would be a VERY nice feature of this script :)

BTW Got both FireFox 2 and 3 running with new greasemonkey and quick comments no probs :)

I had a minor profile issue and also the new greasemonkey likes to make new folder for each script I think that may have been the problem :)

Professor Bop    says:

I tried to do the following below because I cannot access the "User Scripts Command" -- it is not highlighted --
I found the tag "greasemonkey.scriptvals.http://6v8.gamboni.org//Flickr Quick Comment.quicktag"
BUT I cannot erase it. Now the delete command is not highlighted.
Still confused.


Could you please open in your address bar: 'about:config', it will tell you that you should be careful... in the search field, enter 'quicktag', you should find a key:
greasemonkey.scriptvals.http://6v8.gamboni.org//Flickr Quick Comment.quicktag
erase it.

for the invite group dropdown list, why does it not list the groups that I'm member of . Where does the group list come from,is this statically stored?

mortimer?    says:

The group invite dropdown (the one "Invite this photo to..." under the message box) is provided by Flickr and only lists groups you admin... nothing to do with this script.

Scooter Flix says:

I am having an "UNDEFINED" issue. When I select
Greasemonkey > User Script commands
There are two blank lines at the bottom of the popup.


Selecting the first blank line opens this window


Selecting the second blank line opens this window


For as long as I can remember what the blanks lines are and what they do, I can use the script to add tags but it is very difficult and takes a lot of trial and error.

How can I fix this so I can actually see the correct text?

Snap® says:

After the latest update of Greasemonkey the script: Flickr: Quick Comment is no more working. I use Flock Browser v1.2.3. I tried uninstalling, downloading the latest script and re-installing it...script is enabled..but cannot see the drop down list in the Photo page (list of URL is also valid). Can someone help. Would appreciate any advice/guidance on this through Flickrmail.

Regards,

Snap®

Snap® you have to do what is described here: www.flickr.com/groups/flickrhacks/discuss/721575942202658...

Scooter Flix this is linked to the localisation bit I suppose, not sure why you have trouble. I have no time to investigate now :(

Professor Bop right click on it and erase.

ToniVC    says:

sandeepkbhat:

Firefox stores all its configuration information on a file named "prefs.js" stored somewhere in the "Documents and settings" folder. If you locate it, you can edit it and then look for the string "quick comment" to find a line where the information you are looking for is defined.

But there's an alternative (and easier in my opinion) way to do it. In the Firefox URL bar type "about:config". Then, on the filter box type "quick comment". You will see a preference named "greasemonkey.scriptvals.http://6v8.gamboni.org//Flickr Quick Comment.quicktag". To the right you will see a "Value" string. This string contains all you Quick Comments comments, using a particular syntax. Double click on it to access the info. This way you are accessing the info on "prefs.js" file (wherever it is), and if you modify the data it will be modified on that file too.

I imagine you can simply copy this string (or any part of it) from one of your computers and then paste it on the other one. I never have done this but I think it should work. Try it and let me know ;)

In fact, you can even edit this string by hand to add new comments or change the existing ones without having to go through the usual GM procedure. The syntax is easy: for each comment the string contains the title followed by "{#}" and then the text of the comment. If there's more than one comment they are stored one after the other separated by "@#@". Try this ;)

Known issue:

Seems to be broke in the tool drop down menu on the User photo page. But it's all here on in this forum page.

On a users photo page;
My QC box shows the quick comments I've made, but is now defaulting to -Undefined- at the top of comment box (I had removed it when I added my own comments).

The top- TOOLS / GM / User Script Commands -drop down menu is blank. No way to add or remove what is there.

anuwintschalek    says:

I've just updated to a new computer and have to build my Firefox tools set anew - having trouble with Quick Comment now. I was able to reactivate the Quick Comment script on the new photo page layout in summer with the comments that were already saved on the old computer but can't add any new comments in the updated version now: everything I seem to get is 'undefined', 'userscript commands' where 'add a quick comment' used to appear remains blank.
Anyone having the same trouble perhaps?

On what type of page are you trying to add a new comment? I find I don't get the 'add a quick comment' on a photopage, but I do get that option on a photostream page and a forum - here for instance.

Hi you will probably find that you can add new quick comments when you are on the page where the new comment you wish to add is available to copy and paste ,group front pages or discusions ect !

Like i said before : For me it work always....

Just one thing :
When i want to configure it (to add a comment), the box for that appear in a strange place .

But i need only to scroll and i find it.
That's good , i don't needs to edit it all the time. ;-)

Read it :
Solution Found : "Flickr Quick Comment" and "Move Comment Form Up"
Posted 12 months ago. (permalink)

decembre    says:

Haa , i found some link where that is something boken .
Here by example :
Normandia D Day

I think it's a Flickr server problem...
I am French and the link is charged from "farm1", if i have a goog view.

The page displaying has a the Side (at the right side) panel with all text Bolder and the Comment Box isn't at the right place.
Here "move comment box up" don't give the right result too.

For the other photo page : no problem.

Same results on a different Firefox profile.

Maybe it's why some of experiencing problem with these extension?

Have you the same result than me with this link that i post before:
Normandia D Day ?
And this one too:
From Brett Walker
It's very strange :
Not the same Typo and always not be able to give Quick Comments at the right place with "Flickr - Move comment form up" in use too.

For this page only , the comment box is at the end ...

Paul_Wheeler Same here. If you figure out how to revert back, let me know. I tried the update decembre posted, but it didn't fix it.

I don't know what FF did with ver 8, but many things are not right. And if you use the Google toolbar, it's now gone in ver 8. Ver 8 is no faster and still leaks memory. I see no improvements at all. I'm starting to understand why people are moving to Chrome.

I use this Firefox addon to switch beetwen them and manage my profiles(remove/rename etc) :
