Yet another Danbooru script

Posted under General

I wrote a script for the new Danbooru to fix some of the current shortcomings, bring back a bit of the old UI and add a few features. It's basically an attept to increase usability while Danbooru's still a construction site and I thought I'd share.

Script here.

All features (and a screenshot) are on that site, but here’s a summary:

  • Recolour most notifications
  • Reduce the height of the notification and pool bars above images
  • Hide tag headings and other sidebar headings
  • Protect comment vote links and show comment scores
  • Add a different hotkey to create a new note
  • Change post title from tags to ID
  • Maximize page width
  • Hide footer and/or the large "Danbooru" in the upper left
  • Change spoiler text (black bars) to be displayed inline (disabled by default)
  • Disable left/right cursor hotkeys for tag/pool navigation (disabled by default)
  • Change dates from absolute ISO time to "?? ago"
  • Colorize uncommon general tags
  • Hide keyboard shortcuts hint

I'm actually not a JavaScript programmer, so constructive feedback is welcome. Please write a DMail, though, to avoid cluttering the forum.

Recent Updates:

2013-03-07
- new feature: hide the "Keyboard shortcuts available" hint

That seems to be a side-effect of the width maximization. I don’t have a widescreen monitor, so I couldn’t test the script with wider resolutions. As you can imagine, it works fine for me. ;-)

Try to edit the “margin-left: 200px;” setting in the maximizePageWidth() function to 220px or more. Also try adding “important!”. I didn’t need it, so I left it out.

Please DMail me the results so that I can update the script. I think I’ll make the width configurable and add a note about which width is recommended for which monitor aspect ratio.

I don't know where to edit margin-left

Inside the script.

I fixed it on userscripts.org, though, so just install the newest version.

Also fixed Opera compatibility, if anyone’s so inclined.

Edit: Looks like the resize links were moved above the images officially, so that part of my script isn’t neccessary any longer. Now it’ll just be recoloured to purple.
