This script provides clean-ups and enhancements for feeds as they are displayed in the Sage extension.

It provides the following features:

  • Removal of Technorati back links for posts
  • Makes links in posts open in a new window / tab (_blank)
  • Adds a direct link back to the original feed

This is script uses an additional stylesheet to properly use the script as intended.

Below is a preview of how the script will make Sage displayed feeds look when used in conjunction with stylesheet.

feedpaper script and stylesheet

Prerequisites: Sage extension and Feedpaper stylesheet (not required for functionality, but recommended).

Please note: This script uses a GM_xmlhttpRequest to retrieve the feed source, but it is not used for any other reason. This script will not intentionally retrieve any malicious data.

Known bugs: The current version of the script has problems with pages which reference multiple feeds and for certain feeds the source address for the feed cannot be obtained.

Latest version - 0.2

Changes for 0.2

  • References slightly tweaked stylesheet
  • Correctly resolves feed URLs containing an underscore (_)

Future improvements
  • Proper support for retrieving source feeds from pages that reference more than one feed
  • Displaying icon reflecting type of source feed (i.e. Atom or RSS)
