It stopped working again a few days (weeks?) ago.

[People, please be aware that Google changes its code evrytime so that those scripts cease to work; its their google bizness to get us readers to be drowned into google ads for better google profits, hence its fairly logical that scripts like that works bad, briefly or not at all.] Drives me mad though, not only me but to see my kids with 25% of screen devoted to ads when they mail their friends.Urgh. Please keep trying.

yeah, apologies. something has changed with the api, and i haven't had the time to update the script. i'll try to get to it as soon as i can.

I'm not sure it's working either. I installed it and still see the ads on the right side of the screen inside email threads. Am I doing something wrong?

I just downloaded this script, and it doesn't work. I'm guessing it's because Gmail recently changed their interface; Gmail Macros doesn't work either.

Suggestion - Addition Of Other Useful Items, replied by sjb

Howdy -

Quick suggestion: Would be really cool to have the "Thread Toolbox" also have the "Map It" and "Add XXX To Your Google Calendar" contextual functions that the ad-enabled GMail offers at times.

Possible?

Thanks for the cool script.

When i activate the chat or labels on right side the script doesn't work. It's possible adjust it for this labs functions?

Thanks.

Thank you very much for this wonderful script! This is a pretty complex layout problem to solve well, but you've made it perfectly. Respect!

yeah. the script uses Gmail's API. for some reason, it has recently not always been accessible, and i haven't been able to figure out why at this point. it's pretty much totally random. when i figure it out, though, you will all be informed immediately :)

I have problems every once in a while but if I reload it starts working again. Not sure if this is normal or if there is intermittent code in different sessions.

@Boe Darnez It wasn't working for me this morning as a result of the new FireBug release. I had to go back and disable firebug for the Gmail site again. That did it for me. Maybe it's conflicting with some other extensions or scripts that you have?

Now it's not working at all. Anyone else having trouble?

Sometimes it works for me and sometimes it doesn't. Even when I reload gmail, it can sometimes not work. Can't figure out what determines if it does or not. Any helpful hints?

@Mikkel i dunno man. .. the classic programming answer: "it's working on my machine".
I've actually tested it in a few different situations, though, and it seems to work in both gmail and google apps. it's still moody with FF3, but it seems to be working most of the time.

Thank you! Been looking for at working script for some time now...

UPDATE: Hmm, when I restarted my browser the script wasn't working.. I don't even see the thread options...

jtulloch — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 18:29:36 +0000

okay, so the thing with the ads shifting with the links was just a result of Gmail's layout changing slightly. .. that's fixed now.
the other issue with the script simply not working at random times is still a bit of a mystery. ..

Not running firebug, but I am seeing the same wonkiness (adds in - and spilling out of - the thread box). Running FF3, GM 0.8.2, & a few FF2 extensions made compatible via MRTech Toolkit. Also have a couple of the experimental GMail features enabled. I'll try disabling those and post again if it makes any difference.

Awesome addon, the latest version of the 'Google apps for your domain' Gmail version somehow displays the ads inside the 'thread toolbox' menu in the left column though; non-essential nonetheless.

yeah, it seems to be moody at the moment. i'm really not sure what's causing it. I'll keep working on it, though.

Hello jtulloch,

Same problem there !
I've updated FF3 to final version (French version) then removed the old version of your script (with preference deletion) then installed the new one, and restarted FF3.
On Gmail, sometimes the sidebar is removed, sometimes not :(
I'm not using Firebug.
