Without hesitation, I prefer the 3rd solution.
That's the most difficult one Tongue
I'll think about it.

Test: I think your username may break things Sad

I find your lack of faith in Bitcoin disturbing.
Question
What do you guys prefer?
1. Just a link to a post
2. The full post? That's what I'm currently showing (kinda like WallObserver.tk)
3. Just a small part of each post? Maggiordomo did that, but it often showed the wrong part and it'll can mess up the layout.

Without hesitation, I prefer the 3rd solution.
For some members (MS/DT), having the full post is sometimes a little "heavy" and not really necessary (I think of this kind of post)

I think a link and the name of the author would be enough.  The title of the thread would be nice as well.  I see you're planning to purge notifications older than 7 days, but if it gets a lot of subscribers it might use up more disk space and bandwidth than want.

The first few lines of the post are quite unnecessary.  You need to click the link to read the whole post anyway, so there's really no point in that.
I'll make it optional: either just a link, or full posts. I've added it to my TODO list.
I don't worry about bandwidth, it's only text. But I should stop updating all files if there are no changes.


I'm just having one problem (but others generally shouldn't have it) : since I have a weird and very short pseudo, my notification page is full of posts not related to me, because they contain a crypto address or image address with "f2b" in it. TBH I don't really care but maybe you could add a fix to you To-Do list.
I think a workaround is on my TODO already: once I'm done, you can subscribe to quotes only, and not to mentions. Then you add "@F2b" as an alias. That means you can only be summoned by adding an @.


You can have your bot monitor https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=pm and have users send a PM with subscription requests instead of posting here. When your bot reads a message, it can add a label and remove the inbox label, so it knows which messages it has read.
I'll stick with a public thread for now, it's easier Smiley

Looking pretty good from here,and I actually like that it is hitting on 2nd generation + quotes, like a quote I was previously quoted in..
That's actually because it's not finished yet: I now simply search the raw post for any occurrence of the username. Interpreting quotes is more work, but once that's done, it shouldn't show 2nd (or 8th!) generation quotes anymore.

I think it won't work with "edit", I guess LoyceV is scaping both the notifciations and the application form form the recent posts, that means that no edits are recored. You will need to post a new message with the right format to get it recorded.
You're wrong Tongue I read all updates to subscriptions in this thread.

You're going to have to add "Notifications: " in front of it.

oops fixed

Damn, I was wrong.

At least the chance that you are AI has been slightly reduced.They are still sky high tho. Smiley

I don't think displaying parts of the messages are important, but just the thread title wold be good..

A "clear" button could also be nice, to "clear" my notifications page of all the read content and wipe it clean..

If you need any more help with hosting fees, please just say. I'd be glad to make another donation (and I'm sure many others would too).
I still haven't found a reliable VPS, and my old netbook becomes more and more CPU-limited from the things I make it do Tongue I don't want to overspend on it, because I want to use it for many years, but I also don't want one that's not reliable. So basically I just need the time to sort it out.
I'd love to get a reliable VPS though, it makes my life so much easier. I'm currently uploading around 800,000 files per week.
There are a number of 'cloud' providers that offer 'always free' instances of a small/micro server upon credit card and phone number verification.

It would also be much more resource efficient to store your data in a database rather than a bunch of files. This will also make it easier to locate/query information when you are looking for something. The above referenced 'cloud' providers also often offer 'always free' database hosting.

Well, this is working quite well already Tongue

I'm just having one problem (but others generally shouldn't have it) : since I have a weird and very short pseudo, my notification page is full of posts not related to me, because they contain a crypto address or image address with "f2b" in it. TBH I don't really care but maybe you could add a fix to you To-Do list.

Also, I found the post 53343027 in my notification page, and I don't find any occurence of "f2b" in its code, that's weird.
Edit: found out. I think it is because when parsing, the "/" in the image URL became "%2F" or something like that, so "/2b" becae "%2F2b"
Edit 2: Even if I don't think that's a big problem for most users (who have normal names), it may cause your whole thing to be broken with pseudonyms with special characters. Edit 3: In fact, not. Or I don't know.

I can't help you more, sorry Sad
But you're doing a great job.

LoyceV on the road. Or couch.
I made some changes to my first post, but I'm not sure if that's what's needed for an update.  
I scrape this topic for every update. By the time the topic gets too long to quickly scrape, I'll separate the Notification update from the user list update. My To-do keeps growing.

Removing your post would end your updates.

Another to-do: only upload a page if something changed.

1. I will need to visit the page always to see any update?
Yes. Or get a browser extention or external site to monitor the link for you. Until I (or someone) hook this up to a PM-bot or Telegram bot, but for now I have enough on my plate Wink

Do you log IP address of the visitors on the pages?
I'm using shared (cPanel) hosting, and unfortunately, it creates "normal" webbrowser logs. I don't really care about it, and I don't intent to share it with anyone, but unfortunately I don't think I can disable it until I get a VPS.
Update: images still go through Bitcointalk image proxy (preventing "tracking pixels").

Retroactive!
I'm now showing notifications for all posts starting 6 hours before Maggiordomo went offline.
I'll wipe notifications older than 7 days, so that gives you a few days to subscribe to my new bot to catch up on anything you missed the past days.
My Notification-bot is now running every 5 minutes. It's highly experimental and far from finished, but should work Smiley Enjoy!
