Is it possible to reply straight from the extension? Or do I have to go to the messages page to reply and this only lets me know when I have been pmed?

You only get notified. Google Chrome doesn't let you reply instantly in a notification.

Yes. However, there is a button to send a PM back, according to the screenshot. Extension users, please correct me if I'm wrong (I've yet to try it out).

Finally, this is what I've been waiting for. Grin

Can you add the notification for new replies?

I've read the source files for the Bitcointalk extension and it's clean. I downloaded the .CRX with the "Give Me CRX"-extension which gave me the file extension_1_0_1.crx (application/x-chrome-extension) with a size of 1354447 bytes and the hashes:

Thanks again! I don't have the email notification enabled because I don't want the emails potentially clogging up my inbox with PMs (not that I get that amount of PMs atm anyways).

It's pretty useful to be honest. I was sceptical at first, but I think I'm going to use this extension, instead of Gmail's popup. This is just as quick and this way I don't need to read a styleless version of the message.

How safe is it? chrome extensions can be used to rewrite anything in the browser abd can also be used to inject JavaScript.It exposes our account to hacking

Here's a tip: look at above posts. In this case, look at the post directly above yours. Are you really in that much of a hurry to post?

Quote from: Mitchell on September 02, 2015, 04:18:52 PM

I'll checkout the source code. Give me a second.

Thanks, Mitchell. I'll be waiting for your confirmation.

Is this thing safe to use? How to check it? If anybody more experienced around here can let us know.

I don't mean to offend you OP, just want to make sure. I know that a lot of nasty stuff can be found in these type of extension.

I was wondering that as well. Mitchell mentioned that the source code is packed in the extension but honestly, I have no experience in coding so I wouldn't be able to check it.

I'll checkout the source code. Give me a second.

Source code?

Can you make this for sub-forum notifications on new topic?

The source code from a Google Chrome extension can be extracted from the .crx file itself as it's just a glorified zip file.

Isn't it easier to just set email notifications? Everybody has their mail on push nowadays right? You can even read the full message in your mail..

Edit: Thanks to Mitchell for confirming the source code and thanks to the OP for a great little extension!

Hello everyone!

Few weeks ago I decided to create an extension to make our life easier at Bitcointalk. This sends you a notification when you receive a PM, even when you're not on the site. You won't miss a single message anymore!

If there are any bugs don't be scared and just post a comment or PM me. Also, if you want a new feature I would love to get in touch with you.

At the moment the extension is only available for Google Chrome and Opera in the Google Chrome Webstore. It is free to download:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/bitcointalk/cmjgajfcdgnahghegnegjiapoclkfcpp

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS: You don't have to log in in the extension. The extension automatically checks the PM-page every 2 minutes so you have to be logged in to receive notifications.

Greetings
