Script Summary: Automatically updates 4chan threads at configurable interval. Allows to post replies without having to reload page.

Version: 7.0

Yet another 4chan Updater clone. It does pretty much what all the others do but it is configurable via a dialog you can open by control-clicking the "Updater" button in the lower right-hand corner. This will let you set update interval and a few other settings.

NOTE: Run Scripts was broken by server-side changes at 4chan.

Version History

7.0

  • The redirection hack I was relying on to do 'Run Scripts' has been changed on 4chans' servers. 'Run Scripts' is disabled until I figure out a workaround.

6.0

  • Added status messages to the popup reply form. No more ugly alert dialogs.
  • Added missing @include so submit feedback works again.

5.0

  • Added ability to ajax submit replies so page doesn't need reload. This is a bit half-baked at the moment. Known issues: Can't switch back to non ajax submit in prefs without reloading. Moves submit form into popup instead of cloning and optionally leaving the regular submit form (though I prefer not to waste screen space on the regular form anymore). Needs some kind of "submitting..." animation. Failed submit feedback goes into an alert dialog which is gross. It's a work in progress so feel free to provide feedback...
