Universal Edit Button for Opera

Opera doesn't natively support the Universal Edit Button, but support can be added.

The UserJS script acts like the Firefox extension. The bookmarklet and button let the user edit the page but do not show which pages are UEB-editable, while the indicator shows editable pages but doesn't enable editing.

• UEB for Opera

  - When viewing a page that can be edited through the UEB, a blue gear icon appears in the address bar. The user can edit the page by clicking first the gear, then "UEB:" item. Alternatively, the bookmark or button below can be used for one-click editing. This script has a discussion thread on the My Opera forums for comments, questions, and suggestions.

• UEB indicator for Opera

  - A UserJS script that changes the page favicon to the UEB icon if the page can be edited via UEB. This makes it even easier to tell that a page can be edited.

• UEB bookmarklet

  - Should work in any browser. This was not created by me; Antimatter15 provided the code on the UEB wiki. I merely made it a link here to make it simpler to install.

• UEB button for Opera

  - same as the bookmarklet above, but I turned it into a custom Opera button. Click it or drag it to your Opera toolbar.

Nintendo DS Browser

To setup a bookmarklet, click the link and follow the instruction on that page. (If you're familiar with rkm's DS Browser bookmarklets, the setup is quite similar.)

To use the bookmarklet, go to a page that has a web feed (such as any Tabulas, LiveJournal, or InsaneJournal), open the bookmarks menu, and tap "View in SimpleReader Mobile."

This should work in any mobile browser that supports JavaScript, but has been tested only on the DS Browser.

• View in SimpleReader Mobile

  - A bookmarklet that shows the current page's web feed in SimpleReader Mobile.

Multi-platform

• Previous Entry

  - A static FeedFlare unit that links to the previous item (if any) by title.

• Next Entry

  - A static FeedFlare unit that links to the next item (if any) by title.

LiveJournal, InsaneJournal, Dreamwidth, and other LJ clones

Unless otherwise noted, these are userstyles that can be applied either as CSS or as Greasemonkey scripts. Most-to-all of these can affect either, both, or other LJ clone sites simply by editing them to switch "insanejournal.com" or "livejournal.com" to the domain name you want.

• Universal Edit Button support for LJ/DJ/IJ/Dreamwidth

  - A Greasemonkey script that adds UEB support to Livejournal sites. Only tested in Opera.

• IJ portal greyed

  - Recolours the InsaneJournal portal from light peach to dark grey to reduce eyestrain. Intended for use with New Tweak, IJ's default site theme, but looks fine with most light-coloured themes (like Insanime, Clean, Lynx, and Opal Cat).

• IJ portal blues

  - Recolours the InsaneJournal.com portal from peach to subtly graded blue. Intended for use with New Tweak, IJ's default site theme, but works with them all. IJ Skins Class Adder not required.

• InsaneJournal format=light redirect

  - UserJS for Opera (might work as Greasemonkey if renamed from *.js to *.user.js , not sure). Appends ?format=light or &format=light on all individual entry pages on LJ/IJ unless excluded. Instead of rewriting many links you aren't going to click, this only takes effect when you visit an IJ entry page. It quickly redirects a non-light IJ entry page to its format=light equivalent. In Opera, it also removes the non-light page from the Back button history, so you can Back up without triggering the redirect time and again.

Tabulas tweaks

• Static Comments links for Tabulas

  - A static FeedFlare unit that links to the Tabulas comments section of the current item.

• Adding previous/next entry links

  - see Previous/Next Entry FeedFlare units

• Tabulas usericon link in control panel

  - makes the "Usericon" text in the Tabulas control panel link to the usericon edit page. This allows users to quickly view their icons before selecting one. The link automatically opens in a new window or tab.

DiaryLand

These tweaks require editing your entry template with the code provided.

• Permalinks

  - create a link, using the following code as the URL:

  http://%%username%%.diaryland.com/%%page_name%%

• "Save to favourites" links

  LiveJournal has "save to memories" on every entry. Why not DiaryLand?

  Create a link, using the following code as the URL:

  http://members.diaryland.com/edit/addfavouriteform.phtml?entryusername=%%username%%&pagename=%%page_name%%&comment=...

  If a logged-in Diarylander clicks that link, the entry will be added to their Diaryland favourites page; if they aren't logged in or aren't a Diaryland member, the link will take them to the login page.

deprecated

You don't need these anymore. The sites they worked with have changed for the better. I just keep these for nostalgia.

• Tabulas feed finder

  - Bookmarklet. Drag this bookmarklet to your browser toolbar. Click it while viewing a Tabulas site and it will open that Tabulas site's feed. From there you can copy the URL from the address bar and paste it into your feed reader or use another bookmarklet to subscribe in the feed reader of your choice. Tested in IE 7, Firefox 1.5 and 2, Opera 9, and Safari 3.0.4, all on Windows XP. Tabulas now includes RSS autodiscovery in all templates, including user-created templates, so use that instead of this.

• InsaneJournal menu fix for Opera

  - UserJS. Altered InsaneJournal's "New Tweak" sitescheme navbar (which wrongly blocks Opera) to work normally. Also attempted to correct a minor JavaScript bug on the site.

Types of files

• FeedFlare units run on your site. They require the ability to add JavaScript to your template (which means they can't work on LiveJournal).
• Template edits are code you add directly to your template.
• Greasemonkey scripts run within Firefox and other browsers.
• UserJS scripts run within Opera. They do not work in other browsers.
• Bookmarklets are JavaScript that you bookmark in your browser. When you click the bookmark, the script runs and affects the page you're currently viewing.
