Gmail + Reader Integrator

Integrates Google Reader into Gmail, built for Greasemonkey. This is based off of Pradeep's script (http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/7435) but with some new features

I pretty much looked at the comments on Pradeeps's script (http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/7435) and tried to implement them, as well as make some visual changes on the original script.

1. Moved Collapse Gmail link to under Compose Mail
2. Removed unnessasary spaces
3. Added Google Reader favicon to Reader link
4. Added a Launch Reader link to open Google Reader in a new window
5. Added a Home link
6. Made Reader's labels collapsable

thedrunkduck,

Hello all script users.

This script still works. When you sign into your gmail account you should see in the upper right hand conner a button that says "Old Version"

If you click this the scrip works again.

So this is a work around until the script is updated.

rock on.

Hi Splatypus,

thanks again for the script! I just got the new gmail version and (unfortunately) the script doesn't work with it... (the "reader" link is not present). Are considering another upgrade to be used with the new gmail?

Thanks again,
tdd

I've updated this script to fix the breakage.

Icons have been restored and the embedded reader is centred.

You can find it at http://www.zshare.net/download/45625805e01050/

I found a solution. Since the problem is due (at least I think so) to the new google reader style, installing the following script (that get rid of the reader search bar) will center the reader panel again:

Is this script still maintained by anyone?

Hi,

I can see the total amount of unread news (in parenthesis beside the "reader" feed), but not for the each labels (but u can see that cause the relative font is changed to "bold" whenever there are some unread news in that specific category). I think it is intentional, cause it would probably get too messy if you have a lot of categories.

Hi!

I miss the counters from the feeds (ok, it takes up some space...). Is that intentional?

I have the same problem (but I think it depends on some new features of google reader). Does anyone know how to solve it?

I have a bug with this script. I think, some of my feeds from www.pantagraph.com local newspaper around here, when using this script it wont list the feeds, but it list them fine n reader on the main page, is this because a setting? I dont think im getting all the feeds when using this script, The icon urls all need updated by the way also. I updated mine for myself but i still need the other part fixed. Could someone please fix this and make it to where it list all the feeds like normal thanks.

A couple of requests to an already fine script:

1) Force the Reader connection to use https:// secure connection if Gmail is open securely. Maybe integrate or borrow code from 'Google Secure Pro' (http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/5951). Otherwise, it breaks the secure Gmail connection.

2) Option to have the expansion of one pane collapse the other. Frex, expanding Reader automatically collapses Gmail; collapsing Reader expands Gmail; expanding Gmail collapses Reader. A one-click switch.

3) Since all of the Reader navigation is added to the Gmail nav bar, hide the Reader chrome in the pane. It would probably be best to mirror the 'Settings' and 'My Account' links to the Gmail nav bar so the Reader top bar could be hidden as well.

Otherwise, thanks for the great work!

First of all, Great Script!!!

I have been using this script for some time now, and recently, the entire interface has been showing with the links. It used to show the links on the left and just the view that I selected. Now the links display on the left and in the viewing pane.

This is great! There's just one thing. If all my feed labels are listed on the left side, does the screen need to show the full Google Reader page? I'm not very script-savvy, so just tell me if that's too tricky.

is there any way to show google reader when gmail loads instead of having to click it to open.

I love this script! But I'm having just one issue here... when I press 'v' to open feeds in another tab, it just opens one new tab for the first feed. Then, every feed that I open after it will open in the same tab, not on a new one. Is it possible to make each feed that I open with 'v' load in a new tab? Cheers!! (and tks!!)
