Amazing extension

Where is the star button for the shelf?

How can we make this work with more themes, or make it dark? (1)
Plus, it seems like the navigation buttons are covering the button to make your reply expand when typing when scrolled to the bottom of the page. I have to adjust it slightly to be able to click it. (2+3)

For now it's only available on the thread cards

[CozyCat]

I'll fix it up next update so the navbar does not cover any stuff
Regarding the themes, are you using the built in ripperstore skins feature? (1)
Cause the extension should be working with those (2)

Is there a plan to support distribution website other than Ripperstore?

[CozyCat]

@mel1242
working on getting it published to chrome web store

[CozyCat]

@Spadilleacee
In upcoming update there will also be add to shelf button in the thread itself (at the post top)

[CozyCat]

@Account
New update will allow to customize the navigation buttons (you can set your own), also ability to move the navigation bar just like you can move downloads/shelf right now and it'll also add option to minimize it

it says it could not load manifest

[CozyCat]

@StayRRay
Extract the zip first.
Then when you hit Load unpacked, make sure you select the RSPlus folder (the one inside the RSPlus 1.1.0 folder). Click on it once and hit Select Folder.
You could be selecting the outer folder instead of the inner RSPlus one that actually has the manifest.json.
Try that and tell me if it loads

This is amazing man, thanks a lot for it. Just a question, is there any reason this extension is not packaged as a .crx file? Would probably be more convenient to install that way.

[CozyCat]

@Glif Thanks! ^^
I considered packaging it as a .crx, but it got pretty glitchy on my end. As far as I know there’s no proper "Add" button, you have to drag & drop it, and it didn’t always work reliably. You still need Developer Mode enabled anyway, so I figured sharing the unpacked version is simpler and more convenient.
