Work great with OpenTape !

It would probably help if I had a better understanding of how Gmail, Gcal, and Google Apps worked. It would also be easier if I knew how to code javascript, but still I've made the most progress towards making the tickler Gapps-friendly.

I think the problem is how the script recognizes times and dates through the Gapps interface in comparison to the Gmail interface. I'm still getting the "tickle me error - invalid date or time" message.

Also, when I click on "Edit Event Details" in the Gmail tickler, it opens up the popup window and fills the title and the description, but the dates range from ??/??/???? to ??/??/????, regardless of what date I entered in the original tickler bubble.

Any ideas?

Okay, I've made some progress in 5 minutes. At the links for schema.google.com/g, replace the "g" with "apps" and it will give you another error.

Now it's telling me "tickle me error; invalid date or time."

At least it's communicating now. It just can't understand anything. I really want this to work with Google Apps.

For some reason, I need to have the tickler installed for Gmail Addons to work right. I'm trying to adapt it to Google Apps, but I'm having some difficulties.

Edit Event Details works so far, but Remind Me doesn't work so you always have to do it the long way. Anybody know what schemas.google.com is, and if it differs between regular Google accounts and Google Apps accounts? I think that's the only issue right now.

Here's the semi-fix for Google Apps users:

// ==UserScript==

// @name GMail - GTD Tickler

// @author Martin Ruiz

// @namespace Martin Ruiz

// @description Very Simple Ticker file functionality to GMail/GTDGMail using GCal

// @include http://mail.google.com/*

// @include https://mail.google.com/*

// ==/UserScript==

/*

Author: Martin Ruiz

Credits:

- I adapted code from a lot of other scripts on userscripts... lost track:)

Features:

+ Adds 'Tickle me' link for each message in message view.

+ Custom Popup for Quick Add and link to 'edit event details>>'

+ ';' shortcut key to popup 'Tickle Me' box.

+ Quickly add 'When' you want to be reminded, just like GCal QuickAdd - otherwise -

+ Opens and Fills out GCal Template in separate window with link to original message.

+ Link in GCal reminder will open GMail message in a seperate window.

Tips:

+ Choose the color 'red' or some other bold color so that it clearly stands out.

+ Make your goals calendar public and have your friends track your goals too.

Bonus:

+ Also works with Drafts - In round about way. Draft and email, save, leave draft,

come back to draft, then 'Tickle Me'

- Catch: only works with keyboard shortcut because 'Tickle Me' link does not appear

with draft.

Todo:

+ Add 'Tickle Me' link when new msgs in thread appear.

+ When not in GMail - The highlighted text and current link are included in GCal details

Testing:

+ Works with Firefox 2.0 for PC with Greasemonkey

Comment if you're able to get it to work perfectly, and I'll do the same if I beat you to it.</gd:reminder>

Ruiz, really does free up quite a bit of space - I was surprised =) very nice! and keyboard shortcuts would be a great add-on for show/hide

JD

Ruiz,

Thanks for the update. Unfortunately the message area isn't maximized when the navlinks and/or ads are hidden. Running FF3/GM 0.8.20080609.0.

Also, I wonder if you could add customizable keyboard shortcuts to show/hide as Yooskeh did with the Calendar version.

great job ruiz !

Is there an option to hide the right and the left buttons, and disable their functionality?

meaning, to stay only with the up-button?

(the right button breaks other script that I'm using, instead of a full screen view, I see a blank right column on the right side on every message)

Thanks,

Ron

Please disregard my previous comment - I did not realize GCal has default reminders!

Google Calendar -> Settings -> Calendars -> Notifications -> Event Reminders -> default

This is working great now! Thanks!

Nice add-on! I've been looking for something like this. Would it be possible to add a check-box for "Reminder" on the initial pop-up instead of going to "Edit event details"?

Thanks!

And also would be great if we could use this with Google Apps.

Thanks for a great tool.

It would be great if the initial popup allowed one to select which calendar to post into. Or if one could specify the default calendar to post tickles to.

Thanks Ruiz. I look forward to your findings on testing FF3b5. I would also love to see this work with the GreaseKit Simbl plugin for Safari on Mac. Know how to do that or know a Mac script dev who could help make it compatible for the Safari browser as well?

@cbg3 thanks for the bug fixes. I've merged them into the script. We all appreciate you looking at it.

Firebug says that containsMonth is undefined. This seems to prevent the script from adding anything to Google Calendar. But once the containsMonth function is added, the script works. (BTW, the definition of Tuesday in the containsDay function needs to be tweaked from (tue(day)?) to (tue(sday)?)

I've never tested with FF3b5. I'll try it.

I added this to Firefox 3b5 and I am not seeing anything. I also use Folders4Gmail, GmailAgenda & Goolge Account Multi-Login. I have also tried this in Safari via the GreaseKit plugin and still nothing.

I want to second Nathan Sudds - request - it would be great if this worked with Google Apps email accounts as well.

@searchforsun... definitely would have to mod the script for that. What parts of the header would you want to keep?

@bobielawlintine depends. you must append '!chain' for the todo to be a 'productivity chain'. Otherwise, it will just be a regular todo that's gets done once.

@MySaturdaySelf just fixed some of the date issues.

Sorry, see after each chain entry 'chain' - is that a bug??? how to remove - coolcool!

The script does not recognize the date now. I don't know why. Before it works ok, now it only accepts tomorrow as date. Any other dates listed in the Gcal quick add don't work.

@Kate2174 Will try:)

This is EXACTLY the tool I've been searching for, but I'm having the same problem from my private domain Google Apps Gmail as "Master Scott" (see 03/16/08 posting below). Hopefully, this can be resolved soon. Thanks!

I read the previous post about this, but am unclear as to the solution, or if there is one.

I'm using this in my custom domain Google Apps Gmail account. When I click the 'Tickle Me' link, it works like a charm, but, it defaults back to my @gmail.com calendar, not the @mydomain.com Gmail/cal account that I am sending from. Is this fixable on my end? If not, I'd like to request it. Thanks

FYI: My account does have Gmail 2 new features enabled. I have GTDInbox installed.
