4u v0.2

This version includes functionality to view the status of the links for you from other websites.

The alert banner shows the number of links tagged for you. It will not display if there are no links for you that are unread. There is a link in the banner that will take you directly to the 'links for you' page.
By default this functionality is turned off. To turn on the alert banner open the Tools->Greasemonkey->User Script Commands->show del.icio.us 4u preferences.This is also accessible from the Show Preferences link on the alert banner if it is displayed. From either point the following dialog is displayed that allows the alert banner to be turned on or off.
In order to allow this functionality the script now includes all sites, instead of just del.icio.us. However the code checks the preferences and only performs the processing if the alert banner is turned on.

The alert uses the user id of the last login into del.icio.us. It also requires that you are currently logged into del.icio.us. If there is no recent login information or you are not logged in then a message will show in the banner requesting a login. This message includes a link to the del.icio.us login.

In my mind to make this a 1.0 version I would like to include the functionality to store the read/unread status on a server instead of locally in GM variables.

4u v0.1

This utility will enhance the del.icio.us links for you link sharing. It will allow you to mark a link read, similar to mailbox functionality. This allows you to determine when you have new links that you want to view. The number of 'unread' links is added to the top links in del.icio.us.


A link is marked read when you follow the link or by clicking on the 'Mark Read' link that appears next to the save link option. You can mark a link unread by clicking on the 'Mark Unread' link in that same section. Links that have been read have a light blue background and unread links have a white background.



The read links are saved locally to a GM variable, so they do not carry with you from computer to computer.

Possible future functionality includes:

• Comments and replies to links saved for you
• Determine read/unread status by comparing your saved links to the 'for you' links in del.icio.us

All questions, comments, and suggestions are welcome.

Manual

Having recently started using del.icio.us I needed a mechanism to import and share my existing bookmarks in FF. Del has an upload utility, as does the FF add-in. However, once the bookmarks are loaded, they are not shared for viewing by the world. How is that for social bookmarking? Kind of defeats the purpose.

Anyway, after a few Google searches I found this website which had some JS that you can paste into your address bar to share everything on the page. While workable, it leaves a bit to be desired for user friendliness. So I decided to use the script as a starting point and create an interface for it with GreaseMonkey.

So the current features are limited to sharing and deleting everything that is displayed on the current page which can be your bookmarks, the results of a search, or the selection of a specific tag.

I want to eventually incorporate features such as mass tag editing and replacement. I would also like to add the capability to walk through all result set pages to perform the operations.

Greg Hill is the creator of the original script that I modified to work with GM.

He has also created a remarkable HTML page to dynamically generate JS to batch edit del bookmarks.

I don't want to tread on what he has done, but if there are features that can be used in day to day management of bookmarks, I would like to incorporate them.

About Site

This site was created to give information and updates on Grease Monkey scripts that I have created for del.icio.us. These scripts enhance the del.icio.us experience by providing tools to bulk manage bookmarks and integrating additional features into the del.icio.us web pages.

The current list of utilities includes:

• del.icio.us bulk bookmark management - bulk sharing and deleting of bookmarks
• del.icio.us links 4u - marks links saved 'for you' by others as read or unread and adds number of unread links to the del.icio.us navigation links
