ConquerTell v4
I just finished up the first version of ConquerTell for Firefox 4.
With the removal of the status bar - I moved the notification to the Toolbar. I also knocked out a chrome version for kicks.
This is the FIRST version, quickly made for Firefox 4 users - please send any feedback my way via PM or email to conquertell@gmail.com
Firefox:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... quertell4/
Chrome:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/deta ... fflahjohib
Enjoy!

Re: ConquerTell v4
THANK YOU for the chrome version! This was the only extension tying me to Firefox, it's good to be free!

Re: ConquerTell v4
A few suggestions:
1. Could you please add a preference to the Chrome version so we can edit the refresh timer?
2. A way to filter to list would be great (i.e. Only show READY games.)
3. How about a turbo mode, that whenever you have a game available, clicking the logo opens a tab right to the first game, instead of displaying the list?

If the refresh timer could be updated, or if there was a way to have our active games becoming active make it light up, that'd be great. I was anticipating on using it for speed turns. That combined with #3 would be very, very nice.
edit: actually, now that I look at it, it only refreshes the list when I re-input my preferences (Using Chrome).

Re: ConquerTell v4
At least I have use of it again. That's good. I prefer it in the add-on bar, but the toolbar works, as well. Thanks for bringing it back to FF4!
Re: ConquerTell v4
Added the 'Show only ready' option to Chrome and Firefox. The timer is a fixed interval - it is faster than ever before (and at the moment I have no plans to make it adjustable). I added a note in the preferences about Firefox preferences taking a while to take effect.
I like the idea of turbo mode, adding it to the future feature list.
Also, these are all set up for internationalization - if there are any language requests (and translators) willing to contribute - PM me or email conquertell@gmail.com

Re: ConquerTell v4
Hmm, I had to kill FF a few times the last couple of days because my computer became slow, and now I'm testing if this addon was the cause. Kind of a long shot, but did anyone else notice FF taking up more memory and processing power after installing this?
Re: ConquerTell v4
I put the conquer tell icon on the end of the menu bar, and when i close FF and then reopen it the icon for conquer tell is hidden under my bookmarks toolbar!!
Have to go to VIEW --> TOOLBARS --> CUSTOMISE to get it back every time.
What am i doing wrong?
The grease monkey icon stays there but not the conquer tell one.

Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level then beat you with experience.

The new FF4
I have now moved them down to the bottom of the page using the "Add-on bar"
Much better place for them....back to where they were

wow,
this rings a bell....
I was quite surprised about my slow computer the last few day. And i thought it was, well i dont know.. but it got remerked upon even by my gf..
so thats what looks like the culprit
Re: ConquerTell v4
Naah, I discarded that later. It seems like something in firefox 4 just starts to use a full processor sometimes, it still happens sometimes to me. It was just a few times in a row after I installed this. I'm still not sure what's the cause.
Re: ConquerTell v4
It's pretty!!

Re: ConquerTell v4
I like the new interface considdering my bottom bar is now gone. Which having just upgraded I am still adjusting to. I did notice though the total absence of a lot of the options that were in the last version, not just the absence of refresh time, but the notable absence of the SFX notifier option. I used to leave my browser open when my monitor was off or I was doing something else and then I would hear a sonar ping (or whatever effect) and I would know I had a turn I could take. I have not had a turn roll around yet, but I am presuming because the SFX option is not mentioned in preferences that it is not there. Is there any way to fix this in future versions?
Re: ConquerTell v4
I have added SFX to my feature backlog. I will try and get a new version out in a week or so.

Re: ConquerTell v4
No problems so far, but are you going to add an option for the audio notifications again.... I really like that.
