After collecting feedback in certain areas of the dashboard I implemented by own test userscript (Example given NTSU) to ease use of the dashboard.
Contents
What is a userscript?
A user script is a small javascript file which modifies websites as they run locally on your machine.
Why would I want to do that?
To tweak your experience as a stop gap solution whose features will eventually be added to the platform by NUS. See ideas on get satisfaction.
Example Features
A staff logon button for the homepage.(On our page, we have to click sign them, then select a non student.) I have added Links to the navigation to automatically view all:
- Events
- Products
- Promotions
- Groups
- Articles
- Resources
- Positions
It appends new links to the DOM with
?grid%5Border%5D=start_date&grid%5Border_direction%5D=asc&grid%5Bpp%5D=189
Where D is the total number of results at the end of the chosen section.
Hide items marked as deleted in the shop:
if(location.pathname=="/administrator/products"){ $("tr td:contains('OLD Clothing Stock')").parent().hide(); $("tr td:contains('Delete')").parent().hide(); };
Adding a save button direct from product edit page:
This is done by loading the product variants page in a frame on the side.
if(location.pathname.match(/^\/administrator\/products\/\d\d\d\d\/edit/)){ var x = window.location.href.match(/(.*)(\/\d*)/)[1]+/product_variants/ document.body.innerHTML += '<div style="display:block;position:absolute;top:47%;left:91%;z-index:997;"><iframe id="saver" src="" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="yes" scrolling="no" style="border: 0px none; margin-left: -36px; height: 912px; margin-top: -480px; width: 650px;position:relative; left:-20px;top:30px;" ></iframe> </div>'; var saverFrame = document.getElementById("saver") saverFrame.src=x
Adding a next ticket button on hover:
Increments the final number in the URL to load the next ticket on hover over the new button.
if (/event_ticket_types/.test(window.location.href)) { $(".button-holder").attr("id","nextTicketButton"); var nextTicketButton = document.getElementById('nextTicketButton'); nextTicketButton.insertAdjacentHTML('afterend','<button id="nxtTicketBtn" style="transform:translate(300%,-165%);border:0" class="btn btn-default">Next Ticket Hover</button>'); var nextTicketFinal = document.getElementById('nxtTicketBtn'); nextTicketFinal.addEventListener("mouseover",function(){ var e, s; var IB = 1; function isDigit(c) { return ("0" <= c && c <= "9"); } var L = location.href; var LL = L.length; for (e = LL - 1; e >= 0; --e) if (isDigit(L.charAt(e))) { for (s = e - 1; s >= 0; --s) if (!isDigit(L.charAt(s))) break; break; }++s; if (e < 0) return; var oldNum = L.substring(s, e + 1); var newNum = "" + (parseInt(oldNum, 10) + IB); while (newNum.length < oldNum.length) newNum = "0" + newNum; location.href = L.substring(0, s) + newNum + L.slice(e + 1); }); }
How do I get started
Install violentmonkey (link assumes chrome available on firefox/opera/maxthon)
Install the script from here
What if I have caused issues?
Really easy to disable just a couple of clicks
Notes on the script:
- Specific to trentstudents.org
- Not public i.e. unlisted on directory
- Requires a userscript manager (install page for Violentmonkey recommended)
- Should be easily adaptable source viewable here
