AutoReviewComments - Pro-forma comments for SE

Question

No more re-typing the same comments over and over!

This script adds a little 'auto' link next to all comments boxes. When you click the link, you see a popup with 6 configurable auto-comments (canned responses), which you can easily click to insert.

This script was inspired by answers to this question on meta.

Features

Read your comment before you post it!

Note that the dialog only inserts the text, it doesn't send the comment, nor does it flag anything; this is so that you can check the text before posting!
Customize the texts

Simply double click on a comment text or description in order to customize it. Hit the 'reset' button if you screw up. This customization is currently per-site. Note that the "Welcome to $SITENAME$ " text is automagically inserted if the user is 'new' (member for less than a week), so you don't need to add that to your custom text (but you can if you want to, see '9' below).

If you need more/less than the default 6 comments, just carry on reading...
Quick user info

The dialog also includes a mini-summary of the user's activity (because if they haven't been back in months, there's no point writing them a comment).
Automatic notification of new versions

The script will also notify you if a newer version is created.
Import/export of custom comments

This helps with transferring custom comments between sites. The export/import 'format' is also conveniently presented as markdown, so you can post it in an answer below, and let others benefit from your words of wisdom.

Note that you can also use the Import to create an arbitrary number of comments (the default is 6). If there are too many, you can use the show/hide desc link to gain a bit of space.
Remote source for comments

If you get bored with copy/pasting your comments between sites and/or computers, you can use the 'remote' button to define a remote source for your comment texts. See here for more details.
Differentiated comments for questions/answers

If you prefix your comment title with [Q], it will be only displayed for questions ([A] for answers). Non-prefixed comments are displayed for both.
[type here], [username] & [OP] (& $MYUSERID$ )

If the text [type here] is included in a comment, it will be automatically selected for completion when inserted. [username] will be replaced with the user's name (or just 'user' if nothing was found), and [OP] with the original poster's name (if found, else 'OP'). Also, $MYUSERID$ will be replaced with your user id for the current site.
Customise welcome message

The default message is "Welcome to $SITENAME$" - which is shown for any 1-week-old users. By clicking on the 'welcome' link at the bottom of the popup, you can opt to change this message, or leave it empty to show no messages at all. You can also 'force' the message for older users on a one-off basis. This is per-site.

Installation, other info

How do I use this script to send an @message to the OP? Could you make this script automatically replace the spaces in OP's name when using @[OP] or @[username] anywhere in the prefilled comments? — joeytje50, Jan 27 '14 at 03:54
@joeytje50. @[OP] works, but if they've got spaces in their names, you'll just have to make do, I'm afraid. Or hack the script yourself a bit. — Benjol, Jan 27 '14 at 06:57
This app is amazing! One thing I'd like to try is to have an auto link (similar to the $SITEURL$ shortcut) to get the link to edit a post (to suggest new users to use the edit button). Is it possible to do this? — Edlothiad, Feb 16 '17 at 14:10

@BhargavRao, click on the Welcome link at the bottom, I think you can adjust your welcome message there. This should only appear for new users, I think. — Benjol, Feb 08 '18 at 14:05
@Benjol, Yup, I adjusted that. It used to say "Welcome to Stack Overflow" earlier. I think this is related to why it's picking up that message automatically - https://meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/351540/where-do-developers-learn-share-build-their-career — Bhargav Rao, Feb 09 '18 at 01:19

Future ideas: use HTML5 storage to allow users to create/modify their own messages.

enter image description here

status-completed

double click on a title or description to modify
save/cancel
'reset' link at bottom of popup (not shown above) resets all custom messages to default

Important

The 'Welcome to SiteName!' text is prepended automatically if the user has been member for less than a week.
This uses HTML5 Storage, so custom texts only work on the site where they were entered.

NOTE

With this modification, there is no longer any reason that this userscript should be strictly limited to 'review'.

How can I make it so that it doesn't say "Welcome to Stack Overflow!". I really don't want this. – casperOne Dec 29 '11 at 23:12
@casperOne, no, not at the moment, sorry. You could hack it out of the script manually. (It only shows for 'new' users) – Benjol Jan 03 '12 at 06:43
I second @casperOne's request. I'd really like that "Welcome" noise to be optional. Can this be made an option? Either global, or using [magic] tags for each comment as you do elsewhere? – Cody Gray - on strike Mar 28 '12 at 03:26
@CodyGray, it's status-planned (hidden in the comments here), no promises about when, though (to be honest, the main 'problem' is deciding how to present the option). Do you think that making it optional/configurable per comment makes sense? – Benjol Mar 28 '12 at 04:58
Not necessarily. I just thought that might be easier to implement; you know, the "lazy developer's response", as you put it. I'd be perfectly content with it being a global setting. Maybe better yet, this would all be configurable per site. So I could disable the welcome text on Meta.SO, but leave it enabled on the SE 2.0 sites. In the same way, the name used for each site would be customizable to make Jon Ericson happy. – Cody Gray - on strike Mar 28 '12 at 05:16
@CodyGray, ok, thanks for the feedback. Pending implementation, you could comment out line 234... BTW, while I have your ear, what would you think of the idea of providing a per-site option to dynamically load comments from an external source (e.g. Dropbox)? – Benjol Mar 28 '12 at 06:18
You mean so that the comments could be shared with other users on that site; for example, so that moderators could easily synchronize with one another? Or do you mean for each person's private use? The former would be really cool, but I don't think I'd get much use out of the latter. Not sure what it would hurt, though. People might like to share their customized comments between multiple machines, like home and work. – Cody Gray - on strike Mar 28 '12 at 06:34
Mostly the latter two reasons, though the first use case would be covered too. If you have broadly the same comments across multiple sites (and machines), currently you have to copy/paste manually every time you modify something. I did experiment with using global storage for this, but the code is very unwieldy (and it needs two scripts) – Benjol Mar 28 '12 at 06:55
@CodyGray, http://stackapps.com/a/3281/876 :) – Benjol Mar 29 '12 at 09:46
@casperOne, forgot you'd left that comment, your welcome message request is not status-completed, if you hadn't already noticed! – Benjol Feb 09 '13 at 22:06

Please report new issues or feature requests on our issue tracker!

The work on making this a full-blown GitHub based project originally outlined in this answer is now complete. All further feature requests and bug reports should be directed at the GitHub issue tracker.

And if you had raised an issue in the comments or answers below, and it's still unresolved, please open an issue on the GitHub project page.

status-completed

I have taken the liberty of doing some organization.

I have created a full blown Github repo here. The master branch is the latest from benjol's gist and all commit history is included. The master branch can be installed from this alternate location as a userscript using this url. This should make it easier for others to fork and send pull requests with changes back upstream.
I have created branches that include all the gists that had been forked off of this and merged in those commits. Most of these are behind master and would need rebasing, but at least no work will be lost in the shuffle and this should make it easier to review and integrate their work.
I have created a fork of my own and selectively merged in changes from the branch that came from Izzy's work in gist. His work includes changes so that custom comments are stored and retrieved per-site, but it also included his default comments hard coded in. I cherry-picked just the functional stuff and made a few tweaks. I have tentatively called this 1.4.0-beta1 and can be installed as a userscript from this link. There are some known bugs still but when it's ready I'll submit a pull request and maybe these can be merged into master.

This was just leg work to get everything cleaned up and manageable using a full repo instead of gists which were gitting out of hand.

Why this isn't part of the main site instead of browser add-on? Users will find this very useful if this was part of main site. — mangupt, Apr 18 '21 at 04:54

status-completed (used this fix in V1.2.9)

Some people are experiencing a problem where the auto link does not appear. This has to do with the fact that the DOM elements on which the selector is based are dynamically loaded into the DOM.

The workaround for this is to change line 683 to:

setTimeout(function() {
    $('#' + divid).find('.comment-help-link').parent().append(newspan);
}, 10);

Basically this is just a minor time out before trying to add the link, which should not be noticeable.

I'm not 100% sure about the 10 milliseconds, but it works for me (Chrome Canary). If it still doesn't appear for you try 100 milliseconds or something like that.

feature-request status-completed (GitHub issue)

Can we have the auto link appear when completing a custom "off-topic" closure reason?

Bonus points if we can declare certain auto-comments to apply in this scenario (e.g. mirroring the "A" and "Q" prefix for answers and questions). Perhaps "C" for closure reasons?

status-completed

There are two 'major' changes to V1.2.2

'Remote' comment source

You can now define an external source for your comments, and 'import' them. This means that you don't have to manually copy comments from site to site and PC to PC.

To do this, you click on the 'remote' link; enter the url for your data source; then click on 'get now'.

The data source must be formatted as jsonp. There is a new 'jsonp' link in the import/export dialog which will create the appropriate jsonp from your existing comments.

It is also possible to automatically invoke it every time you open the dialog, by selecting the auto-get checkbox. I'm interested in feedback on this.

'Broadcasts'

~~I've added a function to be able to 'broadcast' messages without changing the code. The intended use for this will be to ask for feedback on proposed future changes.~~ Taken this off-line again, it was not completely thought-through and you had to dismiss on every site... (sigh, no global storage)

If you could have it automatically update the remote sources, that'd be great. – jrg May 15 '12 at 22:44
@jrg, I'll bear it in mind. For the moment, you could try this (I haven't tested): at line 581 add this code: LoadFromRemote(GetStorage("RemoteUrl"), function () { WriteComments(popup); }); – Benjol May 16 '12 at 04:54

@jrg, actually, don't. There seem to be problems with parallel ajax queries here. While trying the next version I found the comments sometimes just disappear and never come back. – Benjol May 23 '12 at 12:21
@Benjol I'm glad I did try that then. :P – jrg May 23 '12 at 12:28
Has this evolved any? Is local storage used? I probably don't want a remote call every time I use the script (which is often), but once per browser session would be great. (I plan on using an Github Gist, btw.) – Raphael Jan 19 '16 at 14:22
@Benjol, could the remote comment source be expanded to sync all md files in a given github repo? – Tobi Nary Mar 11 '16 at 23:22

Just in case anyone else is looking to do this, if you want to store your JSONP on GitHub you will need to use the file extension .js and then use RawGit to serve the content up using the correct, executable, mime type. – Richard Slater May 06 '16 at 21:37

feature-request status-completed

I felt limited by only six comments, so I made some small improvements.

Implemented the following features:

_{Head list items are intended for users, sub list items are intended for developers.}

Allow the user to enter an unlimited amount of comments. (Add them in import/export)
- Based the script on the local storage, while using comments only for initial data or to reset.
- Refactored duplicate code & checks as comments behavior is replaced by localStorage.
Scrollbar for when the amount of comments exceeds the standard height.
Added a link to allow the user to toggle the visibility of descriptions.
- This is remembered by using the local storage.
Improved see-through behavior by hiding title and buttons and making it more transparent.
Fixed invalid info: "User info detection doesn't work on CW answers, nor with deleted users."

The box now either shows "This user is not registered." or hides.
Fixed greeting consistency, it's now added again after editing comments.

Old version:

Please make sure that both versions do not conflict.

Implementation thoughts: See my answer for a local storage based extension. Use a new syntax (eg. ##) that when read is stored as a comment with description "header", then when reading such comment you could embed all subsequent non-header comments and easily have expandable groups. – Tamara Wijsman Mar 04 '11 at 18:19

I see a couple of comments here suggesting that Benjol is thinking of making the Welcome message configurable.

This is a formal request for that feature.

On Skeptics.SE, we have a meta-post which is a Welcome to New Users FAQ, and explains some of the ways Skeptics.SE differs from other Stack Exchanges. I have experimentally forked this code, just to make the Welcome message include a link to this meta-post.

Unfortunately, my JavaScript skills are too dodgy to make it customisable and offer it back to you as a patch. (The customisation strikes me as particularly tricky for the troublesome few that moderate multiple Stack Exchanges.)

Request: I see a lot of newbies post a comment saying "Thanks this worked perfect for me. It's exactly what I need" on an answer to their question, yet they do not mark the answer as accepted. [username] plugs in the username of the answerer when posting on an answer, but it would be helpful to also include an [OPusername] (or something to that effect) to be able to @ the original question asker on a specific answer.

i.e.

"If this answer is helpful to you, [OPusername], then please consider marking it as the accepted answer so others may more easily find it in the future. This is also a polite way to thank the person answering your question for helping you out."

Can you add multiple pages of comments? Currently if you have a lot of auto comments, you have to scroll to see them, but it would be nice to be able to click next and previous to see lists of about 5 comments.

Also, the "see through" feature is cool, but it should be activated by a click, instead of on mouse over.

One more problem: Importing the comments seems not to save them.

Thanks for the feedback. Have you tried the show/hide description option? That should give you more room for seeing your comments without scrolling. Concerning importing the comments, they should save, but only on the current site. I haven't got cross-site sharing working yet. Maybe local storage is not blocked for you? – Benjol Sep 18 '11 at 11:13

bug status-completed

Here's a bug report.

I've attempted to add the following comment:

[**Please, don't use `mysql_*` functions in new code**](http://bit.ly/phpmsql). They are no longer maintained and the [deprecation process](http://j.mp/Rj2iVR) has begun on it. See the [**red box**](http://j.mp/Te9zIL)? Learn about [*prepared statements*](http://j.mp/T9hLWi) instead, and use [PDO](http://php.net/pdo) or [MySQLi](http://php.net/mysqli) - [this article](http://j.mp/QEx8IB) will help you decide which. If you choose PDO, [here is a good tutorial](http://j.mp/PoWehJ).

Which should render like so:

Please, don't use mysql_* functions in new code. They are no longer maintained and the deprecation process has begun on it. See the red box? Learn about prepared statements instead, and use PDO or MySQLi - this article will help you decide which. If you choose PDO, here is a good tutorial.

Instead, right after saving, it renders to

[**Please, don't use `mysql_*` functions in new code***](http://bit.ly/phpmsql)*. They are no longer maintained and the [deprecation process](http://j.mp/Rj2iVR) has begun on it. See the [**red box**](http://j.mp/Te9zIL)?

If you choose PDO, [here is a good tutorial](http://j.mp/PoWehJ).

Which renders as

I suspect the asterisks are derailing it, but why should it care about it anyway? Does it attempt to also fix the comment before saving?

Edit

Seems like the Comment's markdown is parsed into HTML and then remapped to Markdown (why?!). Using's Chrome's console and editing the localStorage directly with

<a href="http://bit.ly/phpmsql"><strong>Please, don't use <code>mysql_*</code> functions in new code</strong></a>. They are no longer maintained and the <a href="http://j.mp/Rj2iVR">deprecation process</a> has begun on it. See the <a href="http://j.mp/Te9zIL"><strong>red box</strong></a>?

If you choose PDO, <a href="http://j.mp/PoWehJ">here is a good tutorial</a>.

Appears to fix the problem.

The answer to the 'why' bit is that I display the HTML in the popup. As to the fix... I'll look into it. — Benjol, Oct 25 '12 at 04:55
@Benjol wouldn't it make more sense to store the Markdown version as well? (Or at least implement a more robust HTML parser)? — Madara's Ghost, Oct 25 '12 at 08:48
to be honest, I can't remember when or why I decided to store it as HTML. Whatever, I've got a pseudo-correction in the works (very pseudo, it skips transformations of * and ** if it finds a backtick in the middle). — Benjol, Oct 25 '12 at 08:54
@Benjol it seems as if the bug still persists! Even after updating to the latest version! — Madara's Ghost, Nov 07 '12 at 17:32
Oh dear, you're right. I was sure it worked. Maybe I broke my correction, or didn't test it properly... — Benjol, Nov 08 '12 at 05:44
OK, I've tracked it down, but I'd like to wait a bit before doing a new version (in case new bugs crop up). If you want to correct this locally, go to line 343 and replace the first [^`] with .. — Benjol, Nov 08 '12 at 06:24
Alright, you should really consider packing it and shipping it over at the Chrome Market. It allows you to do stuff like push updates automatically etc etc. — Madara's Ghost, Nov 08 '12 at 18:06
yes, maybe. At first glance it looks like a lot of administrative gumph. If I read correctly, I have to pay $5 upfront for something that I'm intending to give away? Or am I not looking in the right place? — Benjol, Nov 09 '12 at 05:37
@Benjol: Also, I've notice your extract function works the same (HTML vs Markdown wise), shouldn't it be presented in markdown rather than HTML? It would be lighter in file-size, and much closer to the intended result. — Madara's Ghost, Jan 24 '13 at 09:20

As posting setups was mentioned being useful, here is mine:

###[Q]App recommendation
Please note that recommendations like *Is there an app for X* are off-topic here (see [What topics can I ask about here?](http://$SITEURL$/help/on-topic) for details). For where your question might fit better, you might want to look into [Where can I ask questions that aren't Android Enthusiast questions?](http://meta.android.stackexchange.com/q/371/16575)

###[Q]Development question
This site is for users of Android, which means that questions about development/programming are off-topic here (see [What topics can I ask about here?](http://$SITEURL$/help/on-topic)). Development questions are on-topic on our sister site [Stack Overflow](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/android).

###[Q]More than one question asked
The question-and-answer format of this site works best if you put each question in a separate question post. Please edit your post down to one question, and create new posts to ask any further questions. You'll get better answers that way.

###[Q]OP providing facts in a comment
The best way to add additional information to your question is by editing it, with the **edit** button. It is better visible that way, and comments are mainly for secondary, temporary purposes. Comments are removed under a variety of circumstances. Anything important to your question should be in the question itself.

###[A]OP adding a new question as an answer
Remember this is a Q&A site - so keep on editing your question with new information - this section is for actual answers. If you have another question, please ask it by clicking the [Ask Question](http://$SITEURL$/questions/ask) button.

###[A]OP using an answer for further information
This is a question-and-answer site, not a forum. Please use the **Post answer** button only if you have a solution to the problem, so that other users can see your question is not yet answered. You can click **edit** on the question to add more information to it.

###[A]Answers just to say Thanks!
Please don't add "thanks" as answers. Invest some time in the site and you will gain sufficient [privileges](http://$SITEURL$/privileges) to upvote answers you like, which is the $SITENAME$ way of saying thank you.

Please don't add comments as answers. Use actual comments when seeking clarification of any issues.

###[A]Answer that is a question
If you have another question, please ask it by clicking the [Ask Question](http://$SITEURL$/questions/ask) button. Include a link to this question if it helps provide context.

###[A]Requests to OP for further information
This is really a comment, not an answer. With a bit more rep, [you will be able to post comments](http://$SITEURL$/privileges/comment). For the moment I've added the comment for you, and I'm flagging this post for deletion.

If you have sufficient reputation, [you may upvote](http://$SITEURL$/privileges/vote-up) the question. Alternatively, "star" it as a favorite and you will be notified of any new answers.

Or meta Stack Overflow? Depends on whether you think there are standard cross-site messages. Some users seem to prefer to tailor their comments for specific sites. And, that aside, I think it is probably preferable for each person to craft their own, because that avoids the appearance of 'robo-commenting' - which seems to be the main fear that prevents this script being integrated into SE. – Benjol Jan 09 '14 at 06:24
On reflexion, I think this should be done per site on their own meta. @Izzy did this very recently on SR – Benjol Feb 27 '14 at 06:19
@Benjol if a robot can comment, then the comment should appear before the user can submit their post; However if everyone were to use and revise the "preferred language" I would think that would only add clarity as to what action needs to be taken and why. – virtualxtc Feb 28 '14 at 08:26
@Benjol, site specific sets should also be kept; but given that most new users run into problems with the general SE format, I'd suspect there's still plenty of room for a pan-site list. – virtualxtc Feb 28 '14 at 08:28

I really don't understand how that can happen. If I look at the code, the only two places where I reset comment is if you hit the Reset button, or if the script doesn't find any comments there... Another thing you could try is installing the beta global-storage version (see last comments on my question above), this would mean you can 'push' your custom comments to global before updating, then 'pull' them down afterwards if they go missing. – Benjol Dec 09 '11 at 05:42

The same way we press Esc to close the list can we have Enter to add the comment directly instead of the button bellow the list?

My list is getting a bit big and every time I need to select a comment (in a small laptop screen mind you) I need to scroll to the comment, click, scroll down to the end, click to add the comment and the scroll back up on the page to where I was before.

Can this be fixed so Enter adds the comment directly without needing to scroll all the way down?

There should be a method to force the insertion of the Welcome message. This can be required because some new users might have and account for 2-3 weeks already but just now started to post questions or answers. They might have found SE, registered an account but then didn't return for a while. Often these people still are new to the site and a Welcome message is appropriate, especially if it got changed to include a link to a special Welcome meta page (which I did for my site TeX.SE).

Can you please add a feature that allows you to type [username] (or something of the like) and the script inserts the user's name? I don't know how hard that would be, but I know you are already grabbing the user name. If at all possible, I would really appreciate this! Thanks so much for all your hard work on this script.

Hm, it's an idea. I'm not sure about the execution though. The problem is that the user name is retrieved asynchronously, so dynamically updating the descriptions as you see them in the popup would be... not hard, but work. Alternatively, I could do the replace on insertion, but that might confuse some people. Conclusion: I'm thinking about it. Right now. – Benjol Jul 03 '12 at 05:10

status-completed (sort-of, you can now customise the welcome message)

Bug observed with 1.2.4 and 1.2.5:

On some sites, instead of having the automatically-extracted site name in the comments, I get the question title. For example:

Welcome to Is Category Theory useful for learning functional programming?! Please don't add "thanks" as answers. Invest some time in the site and you will gain sufficient privileges to upvote answers you like, which is the Is Category Theory useful for learning functional programming? way of saying thank you.

This happens on Computer Science and Travel but not on Stack Overflow or Security or Stack Apps, so my guess is that whatever you're scraping there is a bit different on beta sites.

By the way, I would prefer to see Stack Exchange there (without the site name), at least on the sites which don't have a distinct branding (i.e. perhaps excepting SO, SU, SF and AU). Sentences like “Welcome to Computer Science!”, “the Travel way of saying thank you”, … don't make much sense.

Yeah, weird, on that particular question I'm guessing (haven't checked the code) it's because the <TITLE> of the page doesn't include a tag. I'm not sure how I would distinguish the 'branded' from 'not branded' sites, but I see what you mean. Maybe I should just go for StackExchange everywhere... – Benjol Jan 09 '13 at 06:13

@Benjol Ah, I see. I do have StackExchange Title Tag Remover. If you're scraping the page title, that would explain it. Consider this to be a feature request to put “Stack Exchange” everywhere — even when the scraping works, “the Unix & Linux way of saying thank you” or “Welcome to Mathematics!” rings poorly. – Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' Jan 09 '13 at 10:48

I would like to see some improvement to the "import/export" dialogue. Inserting any whitespace character (like a space) will result in something very undesirable. Example:

###Title 1
Text of comment 1

###Title 2
Text of comment 2

(note the space on the blank line) will, after clicking "save", turn into:

###Title 1
Text of comment 1

###Title 2

i.e. the space has replaced the text of my second comment (and the text has now vanished). It might also occur with multiple line breaks between two comments.

I got kind of frustrated when I lost most of my hand-crafted comments by this unexpected behaviour.

It is particularly nasty when editing one's comments in an editor (to avoid clicking outside the dialogue and losing all one's work) that uses CR+LF line endings -- the default for Windows.

Lastly, I'd like to have an easier way to add a new comment to my list -- this is currently only possible through the "import/export" dialogue, which can give rise to above drawbacks.

With that said, this script has saved me a lot of time, and I thank you for maintaining it!

To be precise, the bug should be fixed, but I haven't yet put any thought into the adding new comments request. — Benjol, Feb 12 '14 at 08:15

Being active on multiple sites, I've had some special requirements. So I've made a fork based on v1.3.0, which includes the following additional features:

a variable $MYUSERID$ in the comments gets replaced by your userID on the current site
you can have site-specific messages

The latter is done by adding an (optional) Site: "<hostname>" part to the defaultMessages. In import/export, this shows as an additional line starting with §§§. Importing from the "original script" here still works (but obviously has no site-specifics), exports from my "fork" must have the §§§ lines removed to import them into the "original one".

It's not yet "heavily tested", but in use by at least 3 people. Feel free to drop me a note (comments to this answer, for example) for feedback/questions. I'd be glad to see my "enhancements" integrated with the "master" (also to profit from future updates). so feel free doing so :)

Current version of the code hides behind the link above (a pastebin).

@Benjol Izzy is new to git, but you can merge changes the same way you would with any git repo. Gists are full repos so you can git remote add rematename <other gist url> then use the normal collection such as git pull to merge changes form other gists into your branch of choice. But I agree this userscript could benefit from being a normal repo instead of a gist, it's kind of outgrown itself. – Caleb Feb 25 '14 at 11:28
@Caleb, my problem is I've always had problems (network and my understanding) connecting to github, so most of what I've done has been copy/paste from the web interface. So merging is a challenge... – Benjol Feb 25 '14 at 11:36
@Benjol In that case, I'd recommend to 1) use a graphical compare tool (WinDiff on Win, FLDiff on *nix) to check the differences. Then you 2) will most likely end-up simply taking my copy while 3) replacing the defaultComments I've changed, and 4) be done :) – Izzy Feb 25 '14 at 11:41
@Benjol I've made a full repo with your gist history and am going to make a branch that includes Izzy's changes. – Caleb Feb 25 '14 at 11:45

It would be great to be able to use this same functionality in the edit summary when making edits. Most of the edits I do fall into a small subset of "categories" and it pains me to have to put in the same summary over and over.

Adding a category (much like already exists for question-only or answer-only comments) would be a big help beyond just adding the "auto" link next to the edit summary input box.

To take it one step more, since edits may be for more than one thing at a time, a slightly different interface that is checkbox-based, rather than radio buttons would be ideal so that I could combine / chain the edits I've made.

In summary, here's what I am asking for (in order of priority / usefulness):

Adding the dialog link to the Edit Summary input
Adding a category for Edit Summaries
Changing the behavior for edit summaries to allow for adding multiple "comments"

What browser, what version (of the script), etc.? – Benjol Nov 05 '12 at 05:41
Chrome 23.0.1271.60 beta and 1.2.4 of the script. – daviesgeek Nov 05 '12 at 05:51
OK now I can reproduce, but for some reason I can't get any key handlers to work in Chrome. Nor can I work out how come Escape does seems to work to close the popup, when I can't find any code that should do it. This thing has developed a life of its own! – Benjol Nov 05 '12 at 08:58
Yes, Escape does work :-) but Enter doesn't....weird...LOL – daviesgeek Nov 06 '12 at 04:37

feature-request status-completed

I am excitedly using the "much-requested override for the new user Welcome message." in V1.2.6, as one of those requesters.

The save function doesn't appear to be sticking. It works immediately, but when I come back later, it has returned to the default message.

(Chrome, Windows)

bug status-norepro

I have the problem that whenever I change or add any comments, my changes are gone after restarting my Firefox and all comments are back to the default values.

Has anybody a hint what this could be caused by? I use FF19 on Ubuntu and Autocomments 1.2.8. I also wonder if the noscript addon of FF could have any influence but for the SX sites all scripts are allowed.

Any hints or ideas?

No idea. The script uses localstorage, have you got some add-on or extension which clears local storage every time you shutdown FFx? – Benjol Feb 26 '13 at 07:10

bug status-completed (sort of)

Google Chrome is now making it harder to install the script for security reasons.

Upon clicking on the install link, a warning pops up refusing to install it. There's a Learn more link, recommending you use Google's oh-so-convenient distribution mechanism.

(There is a workaround for the user hidden in the text, which I am about to try.)

Wonderful. They're going to force me to sign up for Google+, aren't they? Wasters. – Benjol Apr 15 '13 at 07:10
If that (understandably) bothers you, you could explain the clumsy workaround to people before they click the link. I managed to get it to work. – Oddthinking Apr 15 '13 at 07:34
Yeah, I'll settle for that solution for the moment... – Benjol Apr 15 '13 at 12:27

Bug Report

I managed to install this with Tampermonkey on Google Chrome (Windows 7) along other scripts, except this script isn't working for me on Chrome (Firefox does work).

Sorry, no time to fix – Benjol Jul 22 '13 at 06:44
Works for me on both chrome stable and canary – PeeHaa Jul 24 '13 at 22:28
@Lucas, watch GitHub, there should be some progress on this front in the near future. – Benjol Mar 03 '14 at 10:05

Mini suggestion: Open the update link in a new tab.
