Significant Changes

  • User Interface improvements to fonts, colors, icons, and more by Eric Tuftee, a new collaborator focused on UI
  • The Control Panel that appeared in the upper left is improved:
    • The “Post Filtering Disabled” noticed has been moved to a one-time message that can be permanently dismissed.
    • Advanced -> “Always Show Tab List” defaults to FALSE, so tabs won’t appear by default
    • Added an option to restore the position of the Control Panel if it gets “lost”
    • For most users, the Control Panel will only appear if you enable the “Mark All Read” functionality
  • Filtering improvements:
    • If “Always Show Tab List” is enabled, the control panel now correctly pre-populates all tabs defined by your filters.
    • Improvements to the matching algorithms for better results
    • When clicking a tab, sometimes no posts appeared. This has been improved, hopefully fixed.
  • New Experiment: Open a “Notifications Dashboard” window using the link in the header of the notifications dropdown
  • Additional Changes:
    • New option in Advanced to customize the css style of posts marked “read”
    • Don’t hide left column navigation of FB Settings page
    • Improvements to Anonymize to catch more cases
    • New option in User Interface to force the F logo and Home link in the blue header to reload the page and go to Most Recent
    • Disable under apps.facebook and facebook.com/saved

Other/Technical Changes

  • Fixed: When “Related Links” appear after clicking a link, some posts got filtered based on the content of the links, which should be ignored
  • New filters now default “Stop on Match” to true, since that’s what most users expect
  • Added a display of total bytes used in storage to Options -> Import/Export
  • Fixed: When hiding left column is enabled, force it to appear on Settings page
  • All HTML content written to the page is now sanitized for potentially malicious content (to satisfy Mozilla for Firefox add-on approval)
  • Internal references to images on Facebook’s server have been converted to local resources (to satisfy Mozilla)
  • Fixed: When Options was triggered to open to a specific tab, remote content (filters, tweaks, etc) were not loaded
  • Added a tooltip to the “Stop on Match” checkbox in Options->Filters
  • Removed “last_updated” field from post read data structure to conserve storage space
  • Changed default number of “cache clean” days to 4 from 7
  • Move the Options dialog down a few pixels so it doesn’t overlap Facebook’s blue bar
