Bump to v2.8.0
Apr 11, 2022 at 9:58 comment added ᔕᖺᘎᕊ @galacticninja Ah the change in SE must have broken all the features that use the topbar :/ would you be able to open an issue on GitHub so I can track this and other bugs more easily? I'll work on a fix ASAP!
Apr 11, 2022 at 1:32 comment added galacticninja @ᔕᖺᘎᕊ Thanks. That fixed the issue. Gear button is now back. However, there seems to be another issue. The mod diamond in the topbar that has notifications of new questions on a site's meta is now missing. Happens in both Chrome & Violentmonkey, and Firefox & Tampermonkey.
Apr 10, 2022 at 11:42 comment added ᔕᖺᘎᕊ @galacticninja Thanks for your comment, I just fixed this in the the latest dev version (2.7.12)! :)
Apr 9, 2022 at 10:39 comment added galacticninja The gear (settings) button seems to be missing currently (dev version). Was there some sort of layout change that made gear button disappear? Tested on Chrome & Violentmonkey and Firefox & Tampermonkey.
May 29, 2021 at 19:45 comment added ᔕᖺᘎᕊ @endolith really sorry for the late reply - do you mind dropping in the gitter chat and we can try figuring this out? :) gitter.im/soscripted/sox
Apr 1, 2021 at 20:30 comment added endolith Can anyone help me figure out why this works on one computer (Windows 7 Waterfox, Tampermonkey) but not on another (Windows 10 Waterfox or Firefox, Tampermonkey or Violentmonkey). It's been like this for years and I've never been able to figure out what's missing. Tampermonkey is enabled, SOX is turned on, there's a gear icon at the top bar, with everything enabled, but nothing actually changes.

May 30, 2019 at 14:18 comment added Sourav Ghosh @ᔕᖺᘎᕊ Sorry for the delayed response: It now works. I do not know what the problem was, but after a restart of my laptop, things are back to normal. I'll chime in again if the issue is reproduced. Meanwhile, thanks for the great tool and Cheers!!
May 24, 2019 at 17:06 comment added ᔕᖺᘎᕊ @SouravGhosh It seems to still be working in that chrome version. Could you try the latest dev version and see if that works? If not, what part is not working? Do you have any errors in the browser console (access it with F12)
May 24, 2019 at 15:16 comment added Sourav Ghosh Did this one just stopped working on Chrome Version 74.0.3729.169 (Official Build) (64-bit)? I'm with tampermonkey v4.8.41.

Aug 21, 2018 at 20:16 comment added fixer1234 @ᔕᖺᘎᕊ, Thanks for finding the time to get back into this (and thanks to others who have worked on it)! Once you use SOX, it's hard to be without it. I've stuck with FF 52 ESR because I rely on some old add-ons that don't have replacements, and I'm running Tampermonkey. I've encountered some bugs, but they could well be FF-related, so I won't even bother reporting them unless I replicate them in a current FF. The current version looks great, BTW.
Aug 21, 2018 at 17:00 comment added phuclv I didn't see any popup blocked message appeared. But I managed to get the token by clicking the gears button and click the key at the bottom
Aug 21, 2018 at 16:59 comment added ᔕᖺᘎᕊ @phuclv Do you have a popup blocked when you click 'OK'? does the access token screen come up (where it says 'thanks, you can close this window...')?
Aug 21, 2018 at 16:20 comment added phuclv @ᔕᖺᘎᕊ It seems the problem is due to Greasemonkey. I replaced it with Tampermonkey and now it's working fine. Probably that was the reason many of my scripts didn't work in FF. But I don't know why it asks To complete the SOX installation, you need to get an access token! Please press "OK" to continue and follow the instructions in the window that opens. every time I open a new page
Aug 21, 2018 at 16:11 comment added ᔕᖺᘎᕊ @phuclv Please install the development version where this should be fixed! :)
Aug 21, 2018 at 15:56 comment added phuclv I get 404 - Not Found at https://raw.githubusercontent.com/soscripted/sox/v2.2.0/sox.enhanced_editor.js on FF. How can I fix it?
Jul 16, 2018 at 20:47 comment added ᔕᖺᘎᕊ @sag It should be! Some people in the past have told me about issues when both are installed but I try my best to fix them :) If you use SOX with SOUP and notice something off, please do tell me!
Jul 16, 2018 at 20:46 comment added clickbait Is this compatible with SOUP?

Oct 10, 2017 at 19:01 comment added ᔕᖺᘎᕊ @Valorum thanks, I am aware of this, I just haven't gotten round to fixing it yet! :/ I'll try my best to fix it over the weekend :). The Dev version has been fixed for Stack Overflow and the main Meta which you can install so you can configure the settings if you go to those sites! Sorry it's not fixed yet :(
Oct 10, 2017 at 18:42 comment added Valorum SOX seems non-functional now that the new top-bar has been rolled out
Aug 30, 2017 at 4:07 comment added Cody Gray - on strike Yes, indeed. I just installed it a couple of days ago. Had to come here to figure out I needed the development version to make it work on Stack Overflow, but everything is good now. Only thing I don't like is it tends to make the page loads laggier, and elements jump around after load, which makes them moving targets for the mouse. But that's really unavoidable with a userscript and not really your fault. It's nice work overall.
Aug 29, 2017 at 19:31 comment added ᔕᖺᘎᕊ @Cody there isn't currently, but I've planned a feature where you can do this but we've both been really busy these past few months and haven't gotten round to doing it :(( if you have chrome or Firefox there's a "sync" option in it so it syncs across computers logged into the same account - you could try that until we manage to get this working? :) Sorry it's not there yet :/ I hope you're finding it useful though! :)
Aug 29, 2017 at 14:01 comment added Cody Gray - on strike Is there any way to save/export your settings? I've tweaked this just the way I like it, and it would be nice to have that available on multiple machines.

v2.0.2
Nov 20, 2016 at 21:54 comment added ᔕᖺᘎᕊ @Kevin the official version is the version most people would choose: it's the version we release every few months that is stable and working. The development version is the one with new features being developed and bugs being fixed but it isn't stable and might break now and again. You only need to install one of them. If you choose one you can go into tampermonkey or grease monkey and delete SOX and install the other version :)
Nov 20, 2016 at 21:50 comment added Kevin Fegan What's are the differences between the "Official" and "Development" versions? Would I install both of them, or choose one? If I choose one, how do I remove it to choose the other if I change my mind later?

Aug 15, 2016 at 18:20 comment added iRove @ᔕᖺᘎᕊ Your solution with the ad-blocker worked perfectly. Just blocked the element on all stack exchange sites, and can unblock it whenever I want to customize. I appreciate the time and effort you put into this project! :-)
Aug 15, 2016 at 18:09 comment added iRove @ᔕᖺᘎᕊ Thank you for the quick response! Wow, clever. I'll try to use my ad-blocker to enable/disable the settings cog and get back to you in a second. Love the features in the script!
Aug 15, 2016 at 18:08 comment added ᔕᖺᘎᕊ @iRove sorry, not really; if the cogs icon got hidden then there would be no way to ever get back to the settings panel again if you ever wanted to disable a feature, or more importantly enable a new feature that comes in new versions. If you really dislike it, if you have an ad-blocker, you can 'block' the element and unblock it in the future...? If you have any other ideas, I'd be happy to look into them, but there needs to be a way to open the settings panel again :/
Aug 15, 2016 at 17:54 comment added iRove Is there a way to hide the settings cog at the top? Once I have configured my settings, I don't always want it shown there...

Mar 12, 2016 at 10:59 comment added Brock Adams @ᔕᖺᘎᕊ, it did in Firefox once upon a time. Haven't rechecked in a while but it still should.
Mar 12, 2016 at 10:45 comment added ᔕᖺᘎᕊ @BrockAdams yeah, everything is checked to be synced. Thanks for your help though! I'm going to check and ask on the TM forum now. So does it sync gm_setValue settings in FF?
Mar 12, 2016 at 3:30 comment added Brock Adams @ᔕᖺᘎᕊ, Sync is primarily Firefox. I haven't investigated Chrome sync in a long while (it's not my primary browser) and Chrome changed extension storage a bit ago. You did sign into Chrome and set the Advanced sync settings, right? If so, then hit up the Tampermonkey forum for more. Chrome can sync extension data, but the developer has to code for that.
Mar 11, 2016 at 20:06 comment added ᔕᖺᘎᕊ @BrockAdams I was just testing whether the settings that I set via GM_setValue were being synced and it doesn't seem they are. I'm using Tampermonkey and Chrome with TESLA enabled. Is there a hidden setting anywhere to sync settings as well as scripts?
