What’s New (and fixed) in Social Fixer 7.701
This patch update fixes some problems that existed after the last release, and adds some new and improved functionality. Filtering and tabbing on the new news feed design are still broken, but I hope to address those problems soon.
Install the 7.701 update by going to SocialFixer.com
What's New
- Reinstated Timeline display options that were prematurely removed in last release.
- Auto-clicking of “More Stories” now works more reliably and has a new notification bar at the bottom of the feed, where you can also pause and resume.
-
Improved the option to Anonymize the screen, including dummy names for users instead of “FBUser #1” and background colors to distinguish them. The colors can be disabled using a new option in the “Advanced” tab.
- New option: Hide the “tooltip” that pops up when you hover over the status update box or comments, sometimes hiding the view of the text you are typing.</ul>
What's Fixed
- Automatic loading of posts when you scroll to the bottom works correctly
- Fixed in Chrome: Auto-clicking “More Stories” and auto-switching to the Most Recent news feed view
- Tagged posts could not be approved on Timeline Review.
- Fixed issue with blue header bar being really tall in some situations.
- Reduced the size of the “User Tab > Enter to Submit Comment” button.
- Image preview no longer shows when you are on the actual photo page (previously, it blocked the ability of some users to tag the photos, etc)
- #Hashtag formatting wasn’t being applied to hashtags in comments.
- The “Save For Later” action wasn’t grabbing the actual url, and was saving the Facebook post url instead</ul>
What Still Needs Work
Because Facebook and the browsers themselves are constant moving targets, there are always a few things broken that I need to look at. Here are a few of the things I know about:
- In Chrome, Pinning notifications to the right, notification previews, and quoting text in comment replies are still not working.
- The new news feed format that a small percentage of users have is not compatible with the filtering and tabbing options.
- Invite All link to invite many friends to events no longer works because Facebook put restrictions on how many people could be invited at once. Right now there is no known work-around for this. More details on this Facebook limitation.
- Safari 7.0 has some problems because of changes in their extension API.
- Opera 15 has changed the browser’s internals. To use Social Fixer with Opera 15, first install this addon: https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/download-chrome-extension-9/?display=en and then install Social Fixer from the Google Chrome store link.
