Facebook Quick Links

Add Links on your Facebook home page to Your Favorite People, Groups, Pictures, and Videos

This script adds another section above "Requests" and "Status Updates" in the right column of the Facebook home page called "Quick Links" to the pages on Facebook you visit most often. It also adds to the top menu on other pages a "Quick Link" link so that you can easily add any page to your Quick Links. All data is stored in a single cookie, so as long you allow cookies and don't erase your cookies, the links will always be saved between sessions. Please post comments with opinions and other features you would like added.

Updated:
  • Drop Down Menu in Header (8/10/07)
  • Cancel on Add New Link Fixed (8/23/07)
  • My apologies for those of you who updated to Firefox 2.0.0.10 and the script stopped working. I just made the necessary changes and it should be working fine again. Thanks. (11/30/07)
  • Updated to fix error when can not find header bar. Also, due to increase in AJAX and not full page reloads, I have set the quick links to always be in the top bar, even on the home page. This way they will not get lost when content is reloaded by AJAX. If you would prefer to keep it in the sidebar for the home page, please comment and I will try to make this an option. (6/15/08)
  • Updated script for new Facebook design. You must redownload this userscript for this update to be installed. (7/21/08)


Coming Soon:
  • Reorder Links


The actual javascript that runs on the page and creates the quicklinks is located here.

If you like this script and use it, please comment!

Great Script! love it.
The only thing that would make it better is if you could 'nick name' the links.. so they aren't these long URL's in the dropdown menu.

thanks.

on the home page it only shows them on the right side above your profile info, on all other pages it should be a drop down on the top of the screen to the left of th home link and to the right of the inbox link. is this what you are seeing? would you prefer it differently?

Sorry if I'm being a dumb ass, but there doesn't appear to be a dropdown in the main menu section (though I do have links to the right, above my profile info). I'm using Firefox on a Mac. Any issues there?

Cancel button is fixed. Try it and let me know if you still get any problems. Again, thanks for the feedback.

"Cancel" is broken, it leaves a link named "Null." Great script, though, I've been waiting for something like this for a long time! Thanks!
