MySpace Home - Customize it!

7 hours ago

@Victor: If you are using Windows, when the Browse.. window appears, navigate to C:/Windows/notepad. Then every time you edit a script, it will open in Notepad.

Yeah, I don't keep many people on there. Only the ones I need to talk to. I'll try adding everyone I know.
Why are the notifications disappearing though? Same reason?

UPDATE: Up to 64 friends, 12 online, notifications and online friends are still broken.

Also, congrats on 20,000 installs.

US. I just tried switching to other countries and nothing happened. This is really perplexing me. If I had your email address I could send you the page source. Online Friends page, right?

I think I found the problem. My URL goes 'user.viewfriends2&friendID=#########&view=online' whereas the one in the script goes 'user.viewfriends2&view=online&friendID='. So I'm guessing the &view and friendID need to be switched?

Spaces are in there to stop it from hyperlinking.

So no one else is experiencing this? I wonder what I'm doing wrong. I disable all other scripts and this still happens. I tried reinstalling Firefox, disabling Stylish, clearing my cookies and cache, disabling all other add-ons, changing themes, reinstalling the script, I can't think of anything else.

The Online Friends aren't loading for me. Notifications are still disappearing.

I made an interesting observation. I do not have the columns resized, and the friends space is in the middle column. However, if I am NOT running the Customize It script first, it stacks my friends in rows of three instead of rows of four. If I AM running the script first, everything is normal. So I don't fully understand why you suggest to run it last.

There is one more problem too. This is happening on and off. When you scroll over the top menu bar (Home, Mail, Profile, etc.), the drop down menu appears halfway down the page. I have narrowed it down to this script.

Also, any chance this could be written for Stylish?

1. I feel you should throw the Switchup duty to Seifer's Customize It! script and let this one specifically do the updating.
2. This hasn't been done yet, but auto-update page views.
3. Keep Online Friends, Top Friends, and Friend Updates all in one module.
4. Controls be set as User Script Commands and not embedded on the page.

Otherwise, don't fix something that isn't broken, and I recommend fixing the script but NOT changing it.

EDIT: It would also be very much appreciated if we could get a fix before the major overhaul, just so that the online friends and notifications work again. That would be great.

I also agree with a comment below. Getting this script coded for Stylish would make this much faster.

I've seen the user agent too, but what exactly does it do, send a message to MySpace?

Thank you very much for the update. This is working great. Now if Auto-Update would start working/get updated, then everything would be peachy. I love this setup.

It appears that the online friends in the friend space have stopped loading. This might be temporary, but just wanted to give you a heads up.

UPDATE: More than a day later, this is still happening. Notifications are disappearing too. They show before the script kicks in, then they poof.

Thank you very much for the suggestion. I am loving this. It helps greatly.

Thanks!

EDIT: The only fix I can suggest is to move the options for the script down below where the notifications appear. I have to scroll down before I can see them, since my res is at 1200x800.

I agree, change the script so that the picture goes in the top left corner. It would make this script many times better.

@bang Ever figure you might have done too much? I haven't edited the code AT ALL, and everything is working fine for me. Just reinstall the script. Otherwise, maybe your computer is the 'fuckin idiot'.

And if you still can't figure it out, pick up a book and start learning how to do this stuff yourself, instead of depending on the original creator to come around and cater to every one of your needs.

@bang

If its annoying you so much, then fix it yourself. Or change the freaking theme until there is a fix. Obviously he has many more important things going on at the moment.

Userscripts hasn't been treating my comments well lately. The apple store bit was part of his comment, the end wasn't.

@^tyrant^

He posted a comment on the Auto-Update script a few days ago.

sorry i've been distant.. my job sent me out of town for a month and my laptop went to hell..

i'm typing this up in a mall apple store

and also, AFAIK, both scripts work perfectly fine, as long as you modify the Auto-Update script. Someone posted the fix in the comments of the script.

Stupid me, that gets rid of Tom's announcement.

The real thing is:

GM_addStyle('#mobileunit {display: none !important}')

Sorry about that.

Okay, new MySpace Mobile module on the homepage. Wanna know how to hide it? Your wish is about to be granted.

GM_addStyle('#tomannouncement {display: none !important}')

Add that somewhere in the script. I don't think it really matters.

You're welcome. :)

It's good to see that you're still around, I was getting worried that you fell off the face of the earth. =/

I don't want to sound as if I am rushing you, since I have no clue what you've been through lately, but do you see any updates in the near future?

It's NOT because of privacy settings. If you go into the MySpace Help blog, it says they are aware of the issue and trying to fix it.

The script seems to keep switching back to showing "All" bulletins instead of only showing the ones I allow. Is there a way to fix this? It happens everytime I have to sign on.
