User talk:Meteor sandwich yum/dabfinder.js

This is just a page where I keep track of bug fixes.

Bug list

• Bug#1 - WP:NOTBROKEN not showing up, nor "don't fix them."
• Bug#2 - text Redirects hilighted, but don't repeatedly appears after pressing the button more than once.
• Bug#3 (predicted) - checks for http-only protocol. Should almost definitely fail for https://
• Bug#4 (predicted) - in other languages (jawiki, dewiki, etc.) a user would only see the text "Redirects hilighted, but don't" and be confused. Not to mention it wouldn't be in a given language. Perhaps discard?

Notes for each bug

Testing on Old revision of Asclepius

• Bug fix for #1: Hacky, I admit. I just took the language out. Syntax error? Anyway, fixed bug.
  • Revision 599646836
  • Special:ComparePages - Splarka's with fix #1
  • Diff
• Bug fix for #2: Easy. Initialized a new variable, already_written, to false. Passed it through an if-false block that sets the variable to true.
  • Revision 599648412
  • Special:ComparePages - Fix #1 with fix #2
  • Diff for fix and indenting
• Bug fix for #3: Mixed-content blocking issue as shown on Ohconfucius's talk page. I just replicated it by removing the protocol prefix (http:).
  • Revision 599650123
  • Diff
• Bug fix for #4:
  • No longer applicable, it would seem.

Very useful script, but stopped working?

I installed this script about a year ago and found it to be very useful. Unfortunately, some months back it just stopped working. Clicking it doesn't seem to do anything. I've tried it from two accounts in two browsers on two computers. Are there any known issues/fixes? Thanks. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 01:43, 30 January 2016 (UTC)

@Rhododendrites: It doesn't work for me either. SLBedit (talk) 14:33, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
