Feb 7, 2010 1:14am sizzlemctwizzle Script's Author	So I just uploaded the first update for this most recent layout change. Here is a list of features I've implemented. Moving the notifications to the chat bar has been postponed until the next version because I wanted to give you all something that worked as soon as possible. Here's a screen shot of what the homepage looks like: And here is where you can access the script settings from: Please use this topic to post all bug reports and feature request from this point on.

Feb 7, 2010 1:54am arkangl Scriptwright	Good job! Looks like the 'clear' button does not work on the home page. (the one following the status)

Feb 7, 2010 2:05am grneyedlady User	May be a dumb question, but where did "Requests" go?

I forgot to check that. grneyedlady wrote: May be a dumb question, but where did "Requests" go? Actually I don't know lol. I haven't got any requests yet so I don't know where they show up. Could you disable the script and see if they are on the home page somewhere and tell me where?

Can you select them with your cursor and then do a right-click and select "View Selection Source", and then copy that source and post it here, and then send me the link? Thanks.~~ Whoops actually I forgot to comment out the code that shows them. My bad.

Feb 7, 2010 2:29am Pain N. Ass Scriptwright	Potential bug: One Column and 2 column layout can be selected at the same time. Depending on your intentions here I suggest it be a single toggle so it's one or the other. I didn't have the guts to see what would happen with both options selected together.

Feb 7, 2010 2:33am Pain N. Ass Scriptwright	I can try try a view page source will that help?

Feb 7, 2010 2:34am sizzlemctwizzle Script's Author	Thom Kime wrote: I didn't have the guts to see what would happen with both options selected together. One column overrides two column. But yes I'll use a radio button that lets you select between one, two, or three columns. Thom Kime wrote: I can try try a view page source will that help? Re-read my post. I figured out the problem myself.

Feb 7, 2010 2:36am Pain N. Ass Scriptwright	sorry I have a separate TEST pc and I jumping back and forth "TRYING" to help. LOL dauh!

Feb 7, 2010 2:39am Pain N. Ass Scriptwright	Back to the requests: Anything I can send you for that?

Yes, I'm going to post a test version of the script for you to install and let me know if it fixes the problem. Please install this script.

Feb 7, 2010 2:47am Pain N. Ass Scriptwright	OK. Had to login to the site on the test pc. I'm ready now.

Feb 7, 2010 2:47am Pain N. Ass Scriptwright	hang on

Feb 7, 2010 2:49am Pain N. Ass Scriptwright	WAIT. after a bunch of refreshes requests are now at the bottom of the 1st column!!!!!!! In one column mode they either do not move to the drop down menu or my PC can't can't go to a high enough resolution to see them if that's where they should end up in 1C Mode.

That is where they are supposed to show up in two-column mode. I just released a new version. The setting for number of columns on the home page is more clear.

Feb 7, 2010 3:10am Pain N. Ass Scriptwright	2C & 3C modes look ok. Where are the requests suppose to be in 1C mode? My highest resolution is 1152 x 864 if that matters to you.

Feb 7, 2010 4:27am sizzlemctwizzle Script's Author	Thom Kime wrote: Where are the requests suppose to be in 1C mode? I just updated that. Now in one column mode the requests appear above the feed. Now I'm going to take a break for a few days(unless any major bugs crop up of course).

Feb 7, 2010 5:23am Pain N. Ass Scriptwright	OK LOL. No need to be a wise guy. I couldn't care less where they are and having the requests above the feed isn't so bad or even in the drop down. It's just a long scroll down to get to them. My personal solution is far easier. FB Home, Requests, Wall(Profile) and Notes are all one-click buttons on my browsers toolbar anyway. Look close at the photo link I posted and you can see what I did. Same for my Farmville; All toolbar buttons. All I need is a tight left side feed. Everything looks & works really great so far and Kudos to how quickly you did it too. My "imposing" question now is this: in 1C mode, Can you left justify the feed to the far or near far left side? Right now the sidebar is mostly filled by an empty column 1. Baring that possibility then what about dumping the feed into column one in that mode? eh? It can't hurt to ask and it's not my fault that sidebars are highly utilitarian or that people like me push a programmer to test his abilities. I'm a computer tech so I have my own user nightmares to deal with too and share your pain despite being it's cause. ;-) BTW there are the New radio buttons (cool) and there is also a separate 1 column layout setting. If that's by design I can't figure out how to use it or what it does. Thank you very much too and hope you appreciate a typical techie sense of humor.

Feb 7, 2010 5:26am Pain N. Ass Scriptwright	Requests above feed update looks good! I like it!

Feb 7, 2010 5:45am Stephanie Wi... User	IS THERE A LINK TO THE OLD ONE.. CAUSE MY PAGE HAS YET TO CHANGE AND I CAN NOT GET THIS ONE TO WORK ..

That's what I want and I've been fighting with it for awhile now, but I still haven't been able to get rid of that gap. Thom Kime wrote: Baring that possibility then what about dumping the feed into column one in that mode? eh? ~~That would be the worst option. It could cause all sorts of style and usage problems. The best option is figuring out how to get rid of the left column and I'll work on accomplishing that.~~ Success! I figured out how to left-justify the feed! I'll release in few minutes once I've had time to clean up the code a little. Thom Kime wrote: people like me push a programmer to test his abilities. It's not programming that's the problem here. It's styling and that's never been my strong suit. I'm more of a functionality man. Thom Kime wrote: BTW there are the New radio buttons (cool) and there is also a separate 1 column layout setting. If that's by design I can't figure out how to use it or what it does. Lol, that is an error. I was consolidating the options into one radio field and didn't remove the checkbox for one column layout(though it actually does nothing). Stephanie Wi... wrote: IS THERE A LINK TO THE OLD ONE..

Feb 7, 2010 7:10am Pain N. Ass Scriptwright	I have to pee really bad and I don't think I can hold it much longer. Where's my coffee cup??? LMFAO! Shoot. I just can't stay awake anymore. Well it will be like a Christmas Present in the morning when I test drive it. I'm very excited about this! G'Night SizzWizz!

Feb 7, 2010 7:28am sizzlemctwizzle Script's Author	Okay, I just released a new version. It has better styling for one-column mode. You can now show suggestions in one and three column mode (it's impossible to show them in two column because trying to move the box freezes your browser). Thom Kime wrote: Shoot. I just can't stay awake anymore. Well it will be like a Christmas Present in the morning when I test drive it. Dang it I was late by a few seconds lol. Anyway, I think it looks much nicer in one-column mode now. You can shrink it down to a pretty thin width and it still looks good.

Feb 7, 2010 7:34am Pain N. Ass Scriptwright	OMG It's INCREDIBLE! I click to split the screen and the whole damn feed auto fit the sidebar. That's WAY BETTER than the old stuff. You are a man of miracles!!!! Did you even know it was going to autofit like that? WOW. I'm breathless but apparently I can still babble on. MuhWAH! I just had to look one more time before bed. OK. OFF to bed if I can even sleep now. I want to test drive this puppy with the Farmville Wall Manager script and see how she purrs..
