Silly me. I've updated it on my Stylish but forgot to update it on userstyles.org. It's updated now, thanks Peter - LouCypher

Yes. It works with beta and current FF - LouCypher

Nice idea. Do you have that image in PNG transparent (for dark theme users like myself?) - "Czar" DJ Peterman

Thanks Lou. What a neat hack... ;-) - "Czar" DJ Peterman

You can of course edit the code and change the image to something else. I'm too Haruhi minded. - LouCypher

Changes friends tab URL to friendfeed.com/?num=100 to maximize entries per page. Compliments Friendfeed 100 http://userscripts.org/scripts... - Hao Chen

Why not add it to all tabs? All links in tabs can be added with "?num=100" including "friend settings" tab - LouCypher

Good point :) - Hao Chen

Not stupid at all. Yup, you hafta be using Firefox. Download the Greasemonkey Add-on https://addons.mozilla.org/en-... Then when you click Install on any scripts on userscripts.org it will automatically be installed and run (reload page). - Hao Chen

Yah i figured it out awhile ago. The reason i asked was because prior to this i had grease monkey scripts installed and what it would do is download the .js file without actually applying it, had no idea why; thanks though Hao - Gordon Swaby

Cool! Works on Opera as well (by removing the "unsafeWindow.") - Leia

Leia, great! Thanks for the fix. No need for the unsafeWindow, anyway! - Hao Chen

of the 100 entries typical 50 are hidden for me. hid all twitter, pownce, identica without likes. I'm more interested in the stuff from friendfeed nowadays unless the other items have likes or comments. - Alan Le

Yeah, me, too. - Hao Chen

Hao, it still needs 'unsafeWindow' for Greasemonkey or else it won't work. If you want to make it Opera compatible, see http://pastebin.mozilla.org/51... - LouCypher

Yes, click on hide, then click again and you can choose your rules, eg keep your friends comments but hide all their friends that are not connected to you. You can also hide their stuff that does have comments/likes. - Sally Church

The only options I see are for hiding other content of the type, from my friends or everyone, having likes or not. That's different from hiding items of any type that a specific friend comments on but weren't posted by someone in my friends list. You're just subscribed to too many people, Sally! I'm not a Scoble, I can't handle it. ;-) - Mr. Gunn

Ok Mr Gunn, you have to go to an item that says "X (fiend of Sally Church) posted... " and click on Hide. Then click again - you should get 5 options including "hide all stuff from friends of fiends". That should solve your problem for all FOAF and keep your stream tidy just for the important stuff relating to YOUR friends. Or you can just hide stuff from my friends in that option list :) - Sally Church

Kol Tregaskes, LouCypher and "Czar" DJ Peterman liked this

Because I can't see my own history from before June 1st. Can you? - Andy Roberts

Archives are currently only accessible up to page 11 (i.e., the 330 latest items). I think FF acknowledged this will be fixed someday. - Ole Begemann

I hope they fix this because if not I'll gladly archive my "life stream" on a web-site that wants it... - "Czar" DJ Peterman

Thanks for the info Ole. This could be quite important when we start to see how the search engines view Friendfeed pages and rooms further down the line. I wonder if the permalinks within the inaccessible pages still work. - Andy Roberts

Suggested alternatives for archiving lifestreams? - Secondbrain , lifestream.fm more ? - Andy Roberts

The sticky search overlaps on the first feed on my 'friends' page. Any tweak? - Vijay Sadasivam

except they overlap currently :( - Tim Hoeck via NoiseRiver

Scanman, Thanks. I'm sure this script has a lot of potential. One way I'm using it is to "sticky" friends using "who:exampleusername." Then you have an automatic way of known when these particular friends add new content. [edit: example; http://www.flickr.com/photos/c...] - "Czar" DJ Peterman

get out.. this thing autoupdates? Nice. - Tim Hoeck via NoiseRiver

You can move the sticky 'box' around. Find line #173 and edit the position, width, etc... (and it does auto-update, added example to earlier reply.) - "Czar" DJ Peterman

Czar, I found the line and altered the width. No overlap with feed now. But I couldn't alter the height / rows, so it stil overlaps the search box, add & edit tabs. Is the line height in the same line? I'm a newbie at this jsscript thingy & I'm just doing this on the fly (blind). - Vijay Sadasivam

http://twitpic.com/3x1g this is what I'm talking about. - Vijay Sadasivam

Not pertinent to this, but don't u think it'd be great if we could hyperlink & attach files in comments. Any hacks for that? - Vijay Sadasivam

You can try to pad it for a quick fix. Same line and within the style preference paste "padding-top:40px;" - "Czar" DJ Peterman

Vijay, I removed '+_top+' and just put 120px, not sure yet if it will work fine like that, but it seems to. - Tim Hoeck via NoiseRiver

Tim, Your hack works!! Thanks. - Vijay Sadasivam

Czar, the padding didn't work... I probably put it in at the wrong place. I'm happy for now. - Vijay Sadasivam

Consiliera, Right click on the GM Icon (located bottom right) and "Manage User Scripts". Find the script and click "Edit" (next to Enable.) Save and refresh. - "Czar" DJ Peterman

I thought it doens't show because I was logged in, but I can't see it when I'm signed out, either. It's installed, enabled and still doesn't show (or do you see my profile now?) - Gaby Benkwitz

This script pulls the Bio from a) Twitter b) Linkedin. - "Czar" DJ Peterman
