    If you're still maintaining this, I'd suggest changing the ID detection to something like id=$(this).find('a[class="short-link"]').attr("href").replace(/\/[aq]\//, "").replace(/\/\d+/, "");. That way it works on sites where you don't have an account or aren't logged in.

Here's a small and simpler updated fork. It adds only the timeline link:

// ==UserScript==
// @name          Stack Exchange Timeline Link
// @namespace     stackoverflow
// @description   Add a 'timeline' link to Stack Exchange / Stack Overflow posts - based on http://stackapps.com/questions/2047/add-timeline-and-revisions-links/4238#4238
// @include       http*//*stackexchange.com/*
// @include       http*//*stackoverflow.com/*
// @include       http*//*serverfault.com/*
// @include       http*//*superuser.com/*
// @include       http*//*askubuntu.com/*
// @include       http*//*mathoverflow.net/*
// @include       http*//*onstartups.com/*

// @include       http*//*seasonedadvice.com/*

// @exclude       http*//data*stackexchange.com/*
// @exclude       */reputation
// @grant         none
// ==/UserScript==

(function(){
    var start=function(){
        $(".post-menu").each(function(){
            id = $(this).find("a.short-link")[0].href.replace(/^.*\/a\//, "").replace(/\/\d+(?:#.*)?$/, "").replace(/\D+/, "");
            rlink = $("<span class='lsep'>|</span><a href='/posts/"+id+"/timeline'>timeline</a>");
            $(this).append(rlink);
        });
    };

    var script = document.createElement("script");
    script.type = "text/javascript";
    script.textContent = "(" + start + ")();";
    document.body.appendChild(script);
})();

    Here's a substantial update that adds support for all Stack Exchange sites, including Meta sites for the Trilogy and sites such as Ask Ubuntu which have different domain names. I've also removed the return false; at the end of the start function because answers now have their own timelines. gist.github.com/bwDraco/85a5806b0d0681efc596

    Stack Exchange doesn't officially support HTTPS, but it mostly works. Your include patterns currently only match HTTP.

  • @JeffreyBosboom so true! I thought removing http: might work, but that backfires too hard - looks almost every site then gets included. Looks like replacing : with * worked fine, though. Hope that's good enough!
