Remove implemented fix
Mar 8, 2019 at 20:14 comment added gparyani I added a new fix, which I proposed on GitHub a while back but didn't receive a response.

Apr 2, 2018 at 10:43 comment added Ilmari Karonen @GaurangTandon: It definitely would be, if there was a practical way to do it with a user script without hammering the SE servers with continuous checks. I'm not sure there is, though. :( Also, in any case I'd recommend posting a feature request for that on Meta Stack Exchange, if you haven't already. I try to make sure that every fix in SOUP has a bug report / feature request on meta, since the long term goal is to have SE actually fix all this stuff for everybody. Occasionally it even happens.
Apr 2, 2018 at 8:44 comment added Gaurang Tandon @IlmariKaronen I've a feature request. On an SE post, suppose a user posts a comment, and then edits it within the five minute window. Now unless you submit a new comment (below that edited comment) or force a page reload, you won't see that the comment has been edited. So, I request for a script that continuously checks whether any comment has been updated, and displays the updated comment. Is this within the scope of SOUP? Thank you!

add future plans for SOUP 2.0; remove scheduled fixes, since I wasn't really updating it anyway
Oct 9, 2014 at 10:40 comment added Iulian Onofrei @Ilmari Karonen I know, that's why I asked. At least the css easy fixes
Oct 9, 2014 at 10:36 comment added Ilmari Karonen @IulianOnofrei: Sometimes they do. I am kind of hoping that some day, some SE dev will sit down and look through the SOUP source code for fixes to apply officially. The CSS fixes are particularly easy, most of them could just be copy-pasted directly into the appropriate SE style sheets (hint, hint!).
Oct 9, 2014 at 8:50 comment added Iulian Onofrei How comes Stack Overflow doesn't implement this solutions in the official code?
Aug 17, 2014 at 19:50 comment added Raphael @IlmariKaronen No, it's about the usual comment list below posts. :) Let me know if you do!
Aug 17, 2014 at 19:49 comment added Ilmari Karonen @Raphael: Ah, I thought the request was about the mod queue, which, AIUI, works a bit differently from the usual question view. I suppose I could give it a try, and you can tell me if it works or not. :)
Aug 17, 2014 at 19:43 comment added Raphael @IlmariKaronen Since both flag and deletion API are exposed to any user (with enough rep) I'd thought you'd not need a mod account? (Note that "move to chat" is not a feature right now, anyway.) I'd be happy to test but I don't feel I'm qualified to write it.
Aug 17, 2014 at 19:30 comment added Ilmari Karonen @Raphael: Probably, but you'll need to find a mod with userscript skills to code and test it. I know there are a bunch, so it's doable, and I'd probably be happy to, ahem, borrow the code for SOUP if someone does write it (and it doesn't break the existing interface or have any other obvious issues, of course).
Aug 14, 2014 at 20:00 comment added Raphael Regarding comment management: bulk operations might be doable by userscript?

Jul 28, 2014 at 14:09 comment added AstroCB @IlmariKaronen Great: thanks. It doesn't appear to be getting much traction over at MSO, so I don't see it happening officially anytime soon.

added to SOUP v1.20; thanks, AstroCB!
Jul 28, 2014 at 14:07 comment added Ilmari Karonen @AstroCB: Thanks! A fix for mse266852: Bar between “add a comment” and “show more comments” is inconsistent, loosely based on your script, is now included in the just released SOUP v1.20.

Added proposal for fix of the new add a comment / show more comments buttons
Jul 3, 2014 at 11:12 comment added Ilmari Karonen @Raphael: Unless there's some way to hook into the existing comment migration feature (and I kind of doubt it, since it seems like it'd be a security hole), step c would have to be mod-only. And I'm not a mod on any SE site, so I can't really develop and test it myself. (There was one mod-only fix in SOUP once, but it was mostly developed by Manishearth, who is a mod.) That said, if somebody does come up with a nice and working user script to do that, I'd be glad to steal it for SOUP.
Jul 3, 2014 at 11:01 comment added Raphael I'm not sure if that's feasible, but moving discussions to chat would be great. The script would have to a) create a new chatroom, b) copy (selected) comments there and c) delete comments.

push mathjax \label and noerrors fixes to "planned", remove out-of-date version numbers
Jan 29, 2014 at 20:47 comment added Ilmari Karonen @Raphael: That is doable, yes. (The trick is to use @run-at document-start to inject a custom MathJax config script before MathJax loads, just like SOUP does for the \newcommand fix.) It not something I'd consider suitable for SOUP, but I'll add it to my list of possible ideas for new user scripts. Thanks!
Jan 29, 2014 at 18:55 comment added Raphael I had this idea for the new Android app but it applies to the browser version of SE, too. Is it possible to disable the preemptive compilation MathJax does and instead compile only when the user clicks on a piece of math? (On my Mini PC with an Atom Dxxx, long math-heady posts load a long time.) I guess that won't be exactly "consensus" for this here fix, but it may be an option for the proposed turning-off feature (with GUI?).
Jan 24, 2014 at 21:22 comment added Ilmari Karonen @DavideCervone: Just FYI, I've been a bit slow with getting the improved \label fix done, so decided to just release SOUP v1.4 with your original fixes. I'm planning to get the improved fix done for v1.6.

Jan 20, 2014 at 13:13 comment added Davide Cervone @IlmariKaronen, nice solution to the begingroup issue. I'll be interested in your solution to the label problem.
Jan 20, 2014 at 9:03 comment added Ilmari Karonen @DavideCervone: Also, I got your fixes working in the devel branch, but I have something slightly more ambitious yet in mind: making \labels in separate posts completely independent of each other. I think I know how to do this (it involves changing the formatID function), but the race condition bug mentioned above messed up my testing of it yesterday.
Jan 20, 2014 at 8:59 comment added Ilmari Karonen @DavideCervone: I already do that. However, I just realized that my earlier code had a race condition bug: it would break if the begingroup extension didn't get loaded before the initial typeset pass began. This never seemed to happen on Chrome, but it happens very often in Firefox. I've fixed it now, though.
Jan 19, 2014 at 22:06 comment added Davide Cervone @IlmariKaronen, you may also want to call your MathJax reset function (I forget the exact name) in the Begin Process message handler, so that the definitions will be reset for each typeset pass (i.e., the definitions from the previous typeset will not be in effect for the next typeset).
Jan 19, 2014 at 21:58 comment added Davide Cervone @IlmariKaronen, OK, I've posted this question concerning the noErrors extension.
Jan 19, 2014 at 20:06 comment added Ilmari Karonen @DavideCervone: Thanks! Has the "disable noerrors extension while editing" thing even been feature-requested on meta? And if not, would you mind doing that so I'll have a request to link to?
