Hello! I am Forum Enhancer and I'm here to improve your experience on the Eve forums. Eve Forums Gold is a browser user script which can modify the forums for aesthetic, workaround, or new feature purposes.
Eve Forums Gold is still in its nascent stages, but I wanted to throw it out for the community to think over and suggest some more features, as I am running low. Feedback and bug reports are welcome, as well.
Portability/security note: All Eve Forums Gold information/data is stored locally, and is completely identity-agnostic. This means that settings will carry across characters or accounts. It also means that settings and other data will not transfer across different browsers or computers. It is entirely local. This is deliberate, as it would require communication with an outside server, which is bad for your privacy/security.
Current Version: 0.1.6 (February 27th, 2014)
Feature list:
- A sweet, premium logo to remind you that you are better than the non-Gold users.
- User tagging - small text notes that allow you to better remember a user by. For example. (hi, Chribba)
- Bookmarking favorite subforums to avoid scrolling carpal tunnel and unnecessary navigation. Like this.
- Shortcut link to the last viewed post in threads you have visited before. No getting lost in threadnaughts anymore!
- Linkified author box. The corporation and alliance names a post's author are now links that actually lead to their respective Eve Gate pages.
- Killboard and DOTLAN shortcuts. There are now small icons next to characters, corporations, and alliances in author boxes that lead to useful external resources.
- No more external link warning. 'Nuff said. (Quirk: in Firefox, "open in new tab" still shows a warning; just left click and it works)
- Find a post author's next post or the next post quoting him via convenient links. Navigating conversations has just been made much easier.
- Tired of typing the same thing over and over? Say no more. You can now save things you commonly say for later use.
- Secure identity. Eve Forums Gold does not "report back" on any activity, and in fact relies on no external servers (other than imgur for a few images).
Get it here on Dropbox: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7348412/EFg/EFG.user.js . Only running through Greasemonkey and Tampermonkey is supported.
If you do not know how to use a Javascript user script, see the second post below.
If you enjoy Eve Forums Gold, give it an endorsement in by linking it in your forum sig! Everyone deserves a more enjoyable forum experience. Spread the love!

I just had a flash of inspiration and added the "go to last read post" feature to the notification popup as well! http://i.imgur.com/oj9OjEf.png
There is a small quirk in that the link only shows up when you mouse over the notification popup. This is intentional, since it means it only gets run after CCP's browser code updated all the links in the notification in the first place.

I don't want it to say "Gold", because I'm not better just because of some software I'm using.
You're seeking a customer base that likes to be above/better than others and support division of the people.
Is that why you're Amarr?

- New feature: Toggle checkbox to hide or show locked threads while browsing the forum. As discussed in F&I here.

There is a major feature release with the fresh EFG 0.2.0! The Post Prospector is a flexible search tool to let you browse threads to find posts by someone, posts quoting them, posts by any corp/alliance, or posts by their content. It also renders the old "find by author/quote" links obsolete, so those have been mostly scrapped.

A very useful script. Thanks for providing it.
I'd like to know the name of the font you used for the golden script -text. I'm not a fan of the yellow color you chose, so I changed it to a bit more golden one, but I would like to access the actual font you used for future usage cases. |

I am a little bit colorblind, so I apologize in advance if I ever make bad color decisions. Were it only for my use, it would be high contrast grays or clashing colors, but unfortunately other people seem to hate that. Eve Forums Gold!

Eve Forums Gold 0.2.1 is out! It does not contain any new features, as it is mostly a bugfixing and refactoring update:
- A name collision between my "getUrlVars()" script and the native "getUrlVars()" script has been resolved.
- The Post Prospector has been refactored to not use global storage for its state. This means a couple things:
- --- You will now see an "&eg_prosp" argument pop up in your URLs when you do a multi-page search. It will not harm you.
- --- Conducting a search in one tab allows all other tabs to still browse, search, or do whatever at their leisure.
- --- Searches will no longer randomly resume if you force-stop them (with Esc).
- NoNom has been fixed to only redirect 404 pages that have eaten a post, not all 404 pages.
- Some general minor code restructuring for readability
Enjoy!

Eve Forums Gold 0.2.3 has been pushed out! This is again a bugfix patch, addressing:
- Visiting an earlier page in a thread no longer resets the "last page read" (going back to look at the OP won't make the forum forget where you left off reading)
- Removed a bunch of deprecated code of the old post searching mechanism
- Embedding an image or video is no longer done "inline", but rather by putting the image/video on its own line. This gives the embedding feature more UX predictability.
- Added a thin gray border to embedded images (screenshots of the forum blended in and looked weird).
- Added a CSS class to embedded images and videos to make extensions on top of them possible.
Thank you for using Eve Forums Gold! Eve Forums Gold! New aesthetics, features, and workarounds to make your forum experience a more enjoyable one!

The color isn't bad per se it's just yellow and not gold. It's a common and simple substitute color for gold in many places and definitely not a bad choice. If you choose to use a single solid color, the yellow you chose is as good as any. |

uh yeah, you just made the forum better. very nice one, thanks!
The yellow "Gold" image does put me off a little bit, however. I'd prefer #ccac00 or #e5c100 |

I will consider replacing the logo image for Eve Forums Gold. The cursive "Gold" script was never actually intended to be permanent, but it always seemed like there was "one more important thing" to do.
Would you like it to remain text of some sort, or to be replaced by an image logo of some kind? Eve Forums Gold! New aesthetics, features, and workarounds to make your forum experience a more enjoyable one!

Hmm, now I'm seeing it too, though only on Chrome. Could you tell me the version of Chrome you're running, and the operating system? I suspect it affects certain versions of Chrome on Windows 7+.

This is bizarre. It appears that CCP have started using a thing called "rum.js", which stands for Real User Monitoring, a New Relic product meant to give them data about how their site works on peoples' computers. Something about RUM is interfering with Tampermonkey and preventing it from even loading the script. Even deleting the entire Eve Forums Gold code from the script itself still causes an error.
I will try to find a way around this, but it's quite the obstacle the CCP web dev folks have put in front of me. Eve Forums Gold! New aesthetics, features, and workarounds to make your forum experience a more enjoyable one!
