I guess that this is a bug:

Kind of. This user had not posted anything since 2018 until today. We can't update 3 million users instantly so the priority is for users who conducted some sort of activity, e.g. made new posts or sent merits, which we can detect by fetching patrol pages and recent merit list. Inactive users have the lowest priority and we can't detect when the last activity timestamp has changed on the profile page, but once they make a post it will clear the inactive status, which I think has already happened for this particular user.

I think this is really a bug ... in the sense that first of all I thought that the incorrect display could be due to the fact that the user actually appeared on the network, but BPIP did not have time to update the status of this user. But I checked the data for this account in seclog and found nothing, (although I don't know how often the update happens).

It's the same on user profile too.

I noticed a bug in the BPIP extension today. Earned Merits and BPIP rank are blank, just like in the image below. All profiles in all posts in my computer are like that

I'm aware and trying to fix... looks like some unrelated updates broke the API because I failed to merge the code many months ago.

DT1 and DT2 badges are also not displayed. I believe it is for the same reason

I don't know if it is a temporary bug due to some database update... but the bpip website is working fine here.

I am using Microsoft Edge 89, BPIP version 2.2.5. I am using uBlock and Privacy Badger extensions.

sm & ib, I would like to add one more suggestion for improving the BPIP extension ... I recently came across a thread called "Enhanced merit UI", and since I'm not a fan of installing multiple extensions for the same site, I'd rather see this feature in an extension I'm already used to.

This is a very simple userscript that allows you to add merit without leaving the page. Click on the "+Merit" link to open/close the popup.



Hopefully duplicating one of the sentences won't be too intrusive (it seemed to me that this proposal went unnoticed).

Quoting feedback looks great, I've used this feature several times already. It would be great if the default bbcode was copied using [2xhr] (as shown in the second example).

Not sure, if it is a bug. I use the following date format: DD.MM.YYYY, HH:MM:SS

Human bug.   Wink  How can a system tell if you mean Feb 3 or Mar 2?  Why not use the international standard?   YY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS

Hi again,

just a quick heads up to let you know that I've been able to install BPIP in Tor Ver 10.0.11 - the previous few versions of Tor wouldn't permit the instillation.  I've been trying it out with just about every featured toggled to on and the information seems to load fairly quickly.

Oh okay. I guess you programmed to extension in Javascript. Isn't there a lib or something that converts any kind of date format into a timestamp? From time to time I code in Python and there is such a lib you can use.

I'm sure there is one but using 3rd party libraries in extensions is frowned upon and I think it would still have a problem automatically figuring out if 2.3.2021 is February 3rd or March 2nd.

But dealing with custom ones is a bit tricky so I'm not even trying.

Kind of. I have implemented all predefined date formats:

Loading...

But dealing with custom ones is a bit tricky so I'm not even trying. For example I can't automatically determine if it's d.m.y or m.d.y. I'll try to think of something. Maybe I should at least attempt it if there is a 4 digit year and one of the other numbers is >12. There is also some inference possible from the fact that ratings are sorted by date.

I got the following message after awarding merits to a user.

It's the first time I've noticed this and haven't made any changes to my board settings recently.

I don't think trust list is needed to be inside BPIP extension, but I would much more like to see more options to hide stuff, like topics, posts and boards.
Current ignore/hide options in forum are fine but I feel they can be improved a lot with this extension.
I can for example hide all Alternate cryptocurrencies boards with -/+ and I would like to have something like this for separate boards and posts if possible.
If testing is needed I can help using test extension version.

Just to follow up, personally I appreciate privacy far more than any features.
Any invasive functionality should have explicitly defined terms of use that need to be accepted by the user before processing any data.

we can't really cache it much or at all - the list needs to be as near real time as possible.
You'll only need to update the cache when the user visits his Trust settings, right? If the extension can detect that you'll know when to update it.

Unless they make some changes in another browser, e.g. on a phone.

Now to be fair, a server-side API wouldn't be bulletproof either - it would have to refresh user trust lists often enough to keep up with the changes - but it could also do some other nifty things, like tell you if the user is in your trust network N levels down and not just directly in your trust list.

Another option would be to find a way to determine if the user is in your list without calling an API but I don't see how that could be done.

Still technically an API (client-side), but could something like IndexDB be used?  The extension would just be pulling the trust list from whoever is logged in, I don't think it would need to know who is logged in?

There is generic object storage available (we use it for settings) so that part is not an issue. But (a) to check the trust list we would need to open a new tab, sort of like it's done with the locked thread quoting - except this would be done without the user clicking something, and (b) we can't really cache it much or at all - the list needs to be as near real time as possible.
