Excellent! It is working for me in Firefox now. :)

edit: bug - when I click 'GIF' I see the popup and cannot use it.. then it closes and auto posts my comment.

It should be working fine on Firefox if you re using the latest version. Can you check which version you are using?
I just connected and used GIF without issue from my Firefox. Uninstall from Chrome Foxified and reinstall it, you must have an old version.

EDIT: Do you use other extensions that might interfere? Because Nothing on my app could post your comment by itself.

I went through the whole process again and it is now working correctly. I just learned that the steem plus button that is added to the steemit UI at the top logs me out, so it's possible I clicked that previously, expecting to get a menu but actually being logged out.

I just tested the GIF inserter. It's a bit buggy, but I did get a Gif inserted at least (for the first time since I've used this plugin and the previous version).

I don't have any plugins that I would think would interfere with steemit, no.

Oh, also, it would be great if you would add Steem Ocean to the list of links that are rendered by your plugin. I will be greatly expanding the functionality there in coming weeks. :)

I don't know if it is steembottracker or steemconnect but when I try to paste my password into the box to make a bid when I right click there is no "paste" option, just wanted to give you a heads up

yabapmatt (69) 7 years ago

At that point it is SteemConnect so not sure if I'll be able to fix that, but will check into it. Thanks for reporting!

I really like steemplus for chrome! Only i have a view bugs to mention.

When I try to post somthing I barely can edit and my html editing mode is disabled when useing steemplus.
When i try to post a gif. Search page pops up to search a gif and then crashes.
I have in the top of the page a second bar like thing what really bothers me xD.
The mentions tabs does not show up my mentions. Some times it does after 5 minutes. I have 450 M/B s internet with high end PC. So i dont know whats wrong,maybe a plugin?

Yet i use steenplus daily and i will cotinue to do so. Great app recommand it for everybody ;)

For your points 1 and 3 you can contact me on Discord, I m not quite sure about what you mean.
For poitns 2 and 4, we rely on APIs, GIFY for the gifs and SteemData for the mentions. Not much we can do when these APIs are slow or down
Thanks for using SteemPlus! =)

Thanks @steem-plus. I'm excited to try this extension. When I go to add it in the Chrome store, it requires permission to:

Read and change all your data on the websites you visit

This makes me a little nervous. Is it possible to reduce this permission footprint to only be able to access specific pre-specified websites, like https://steemit.com?

Also what protection is there from someone hijacking the codebase and installing malicious functionality, perhaps while you're asleep? I'm no security expert, but I just like to know that an extension will be safe before installing.

$0.28

steem-plus (73) 7 years ago

SteemPlus also has a few features working on busy and utopian so I could reduce to those three indeed. In the meantime, the whole code is opensource so you can see for yourself that no other website is accessed.

As for the security, we do not touch your keys and use Steemconnect. We don't even use a server , your settings are kept locally.

Don't hesitate if you have more questions

dhimmel (65) 7 years ago

Thanks @steem-plus for the reply! I agree that the open source aspect is critical to security. While I haven't personally reviewed the code, I think it's unlikely that there's malicious code as it would hopefully quickly be discovered.

So I guess my question is really what prevents someone from compromising your deployment infrastructure and quickly uploading a maliciously modified version to the Chrome store? Would this potentially automatically "upgrade" browser users with the malicious extension?

For example, many websites have had mining software injected. Presumably, these websites did not intentionally add the mining javascript but were instead compromised. Do you think this is a risk for the SteemPlus extension that users should be conscious of?

To inject malicious code they would need access to my Chrome Store account which is protected by a quite long and random password that is only stored in my brain. Also you can install in developer mode to avoid automatic updates.

Thanks @steem-plus. I have a question, what scale or weighting are you using for:

plankton
minnow
dolphin
orca
whale

Number of vests:

var rank = 'Plankton';
    if (vests >= 1000000000) {
        rank = 'Whale';
    } else if (vests >= 100000000) {
        rank = 'Orca';
    } else if (vests >= 10000000) {
        rank = 'Dolphin';
    } else if (vests >= 1000000) {
        rank = 'Minnow';
    }

You like my work on SteemPlus? Please consider voting for me as witness here.

thanks, do you know if this is the same as used with Busy.org, SteemitBoard.com and Steem Plus?

$0.00

stoodkev (69) 7 years ago

Yep, i took it from the opensource code of busy.org.
It seems to originate from an old post from ned, if I remember correctly

ashe-oro (64) 7 years ago

ok interesting, thank you. We (@steemsmarter) plan to change it a bit and make it based on the amt of USD payouts rather than MVest since I think it's more relatable. I know this will challenge the current norm, but it doens't seem to be too ingrained yet and might need a fresh look. Nice work with the extension. How long was it in development?

stoodkev (69) 7 years ago

Actually I was hesitating between including delegations or not because yea, it would make sense to include it as well, but I decided to stick to the original version. I have been constantly developing and releasing SteemPlus updates since last September but didn't spend too much time on promoting it. It seems that it is starting to gain some momentum now though =)

I just took a look at your announcement post for SteemSmarter, it looks great! Maybe we can find some way to cooperate. Let's talk on Discord. (@stoodkev)

the application is in the computer version, I can not use it because my computer is damaged, I should get a version for the Android tablet, which would be extended to the application for users who can not be stuck to the computer and could use their android to comment or even publish from the adroid application.

This keeps getting better! You guys are doing phenomenal work and I can't see how I can Steemit without Plus anymore.

One note: Sometimes it takes for me to refresh my page before the features are showing. Is this an issue on my side? I don't have the fastest connection living in South Africa :-/

A suggestion: could you make the reply-edit window (where you type the edit) to have a larger default size? Most of my replies are more than those few lines. Or perhaps the option disable/enable longer window by user?

A request: I would LOVE to have a tab of Steemit stats, things like how many users, most votes, total number of posts for the day, newest user, oldest user, averages, that sort of thing. As most people that are consistent here on Steemit have a vested interest in some or other inner working of Steemit, I am sure I am not the only Steemian that will totally dig this feaure

PS Any chance of you guys teaming up with Steemit App?

Keep up the spectacular work!!

Hey guys, just wanted to say that your plugin is awesome! It gives steemit so much missing functionality and it is very helpful!

It integrates so seamlessly, that when i use steemit on some other computers (where the addon is not installed) , it feels that something is missing and often i try to reload the page as i am sure that the page was not fully loaded ;)

So keep up with the awesome work, you help us all to make more sense of this platform!
