The Unofficial CF Chrome Extension

[Dark_Lite]

Greetings internet citizens,

This is the culmination of several iterations of a project I've been working on for a better part of this year. The goal of the project is to extend CF on the client side to get rid of annoying problems, fix bugs, and enhance the user experience.

This is a browser extension for Google Chrome/Chromium. I'm thinking about supporting other browsers (i.e. Firefox), but I'd have to figure out how to code extensions for those browsers first.

Current Version: 2.19
Download Link: here

Features

• Notification badge: the extension icon tells you how many CF notifications you have waiting.
• Notifications popup: view notifications in more detail by clicking on the extension icon.
• Super ignore: completely removes posts from threads that were posted by people on your ignore list. The ignore list is pretty much worthless when there's that "View Post" link tempting you to look at the ignored post.
• Universal Chatbox: read and reply to the chatbox anywhere on the site.
• Bible Tag: insert bible verses directly into posts with a new BBCode tag.

Suggestions and commentary are welcome in this thread. If you find any bugs, please let me know about them here.

This project is open source (GPL v3 License): https://github.com/ProjectMoon/cfx. If you want to contribute send me pull requests on GitHub.

New thread because the old thread broke. Release 2.12 brings the [bible] tag back into vogue. If used in its default form, it will pull information from your default Bible version:

[bible]Genesis 1:1[/bible] <-- post Genesis 1:1 from the configured default version.

It can also be used to reference a specific version:

[bible=kjv]Genesis 1:1[/bible] <-- post Genesis 1:1 from the KJV.

The default Bible is the NAB (New American Bible). To change your default version, go into the options and change the version field. The supported versions are:

• NAB
• ESV
• A bunch of public domain translations. The version code is in parentheses next to the version name (e.g. basque, kjv, newvulgate). The version list is about halfway down the page.

The extension now requires access to three new websites to enable this functionality: esvapi.org, usccb.org, and api.preachingcentral.com.

What a great idea. This deserves rep and blessings.

I love how it has ESV too. SOOOOOOO Awesome. Thanks and God bless.
