Having a slight problem with my script. http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/46418 I changed the name of the script. Now the auto updater has two User Script Commands, one for the old name and one for the new. It also tries to install twice. I don't know where it's getting the old name from..? Edit: Damn. I just realised, when you change the name of the script, it doesn't replace the old one. Now every time I update it it's going to ask the users to install it twice. :-/ Is there anything I can do? Edit2: Posted here - http://userscripts.org/topics/25083 |

That is a common mistake that I've made myself before. I'd advise you to not change the name of the script anymore. I've updated my script to stop checking for updates if the script it finds on us.o has a different name then the one that is installed. Other improvements in this release include: no longer check for updates if a script has been deleted, not throwing an error if a connection to us.o can't be made, and improved regular expression. |

Ok thanks, I updated it to your new script.
I still think there's going to be problems though. I'll try and explain as best I can. The user will now have two separate scripts: - GCal - Change Today's Color v1.1 - Google Calendar - Today's Color v1.1.1 -> v1.1.2 v1.1 = old v1.1.1 = updated with new name v1.1.2 = updated with new auto updater The old GCal v1.1 is still going to be sitting there requesting updates once a day - This script can't update, because when it does, it just installs a separate new script with a new name, leaving it sitting there requesting updates once a day :-/. Is that right? |

Yes the old version that includes the updater that doesn't care about whether the names are different will still ask the user to install a separate script. Meaning that whenever you update your script in the future they will be prompted to install the latest version twice. |

Damn. Ok, thanks for helping. Hopefully I won't have to update it again. |

My thanks also. I've written a fairly simple script to add some extra posting features to a forum I moderate, and this is the ideal way to keep users updated once I release it to the forum users. The alert box that pops up is the best way to go about it, it's clean and simple. Thanks, great work. I assume the whole @require would be ignored in Chrome? or would it cause the script to not run in Chrome? webkit is starting to annoy me, lol. |
