Social Fixer 6.75 Release Notes

[](http://socialfixer.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/logo_simple_thumb5_thumb_thumb.png)Social Fixer 6.75 fixes some bugs and adds functionality like hiding sponsored stories and restoring the ability to hide things from the right column.

What's New

Pressing the arrow keys while an image preview is bring shown will now move its position to different corners of the screen, and this setting will be saved as the default position.
New option in the Posts tab: “Hide “Sponsored” stories from your news feed”.
New option in the Advanced tab: “Enable console debug logging”. If you use a debugger like Firebug and notice Social Fixer writing lines to your console, you can turn that off here.
New option in the Advanced tab: “Highlight the Social Fixer News “unread message count” counter in red”

Hiding and collapsing panels in the right column now works correctly after a Facebook code change.
Links to The Guardian redirected to the social reader app, even with “Fix “Social News” links to open directly to the story URL” enabled. Fixed.
Opera will now update correctly when upgrading, rather than installing a new instance of Social Fixer and leaving the old one (starting with the release after this one).
Fixed long names in chat (again).
Fixed hiding of trending articles.
Fixed some CSS and rendering issues.
Added code to prevent Opera from repeatedly showing the Update Wizard.

Disabled the auto-subscribe to Social Fixer News feature, until I can fix some of its quirks.
Removed the warning that appeared when older filters using post types were applied.
The friend count in Friend Tracker is now clickable, linked to a blog post with an explanation about why it may be different from Facebook’s friend count.
Improved the detection and hiding of duplicate posts in the news feed, and added a new option to turn this feature on and off in the Posts tab: “Hide duplicate stories in the news feed”.
Updated Firefox compatibility to 17.a01.
