Converts [user] in a comment to be posted to the OP's username. Originally created to allow comment snippets with [user] included to be copy-pasted.

Should probably exclude chat so that it isn't running unnecessarily.

When pasting into an answer, it'll take the name of the OP on the question, not the answerer.

  • I edited the code so if you put "user" it says the name on the post you are commenting and if you put "USER" it will put the OP's.

It doesn't take into account the International SO sites.

Should add:

// @match        https://*.stackoverflow.com/*
