DeliciousSafari http://delicioussafari.com/blog News and information about the easy to use del.icio.us plug-in for Safari Wed, 03 Sep 2008 05:48:15 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.3 en DeliciousSafari 1.7 http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/delicioussafari/~3/382040634/ http://delicioussafari.com/blog/2008/09/02/delicioussafari-17/#comments Wed, 03 Sep 2008 05:48:15 +0000 doug http://delicioussafari.com/blog/2008/09/02/delicioussafari-17/ Version 1.7 of DeliciousSafari is available. Many bug fixes, performance enhancements, and new features are included in this release. Special thanks to the 60 beta testers who tracked down and reported bugs to make this a solid release.

Changes

  • URL icons (favicon) are displayed next to bookmarks
  • Added a toolbar button for saving bookmarks
  • Added spell checking to the Name and Notes fields
  • Fixed tag suggestions on Tiger that stopped working with Delicious.com 2.0
  • Increased maximum length of Notes field to 1000 to take advantage of new maximum allowed by Delicious.com 2.0
  • Bookmark saving is faster (now processed in the background so you don’t have to wait for the save to complete)
  • Safari startup is faster (tag menu is now generated on the fly, rather than when Safari starts)
  • Improved reliability of Import Bookmarks from Safari
  • Fixed several issues that prevented DeliciousSafari from loading on some computers
  • No longer a SIMBL plug-in
  • Added Invalid Credential notification when your Delicious password has changed and needs to be updated in DeliciousSafari
  • Checks for Delicious updates every 15 minutes in case you add Delicious bookmarks through something other than DeliciousSafari
  • Logout really works now (it used to leave your username and password in the keychain)
  • Menu item text is now truncated in the middle if the text is longer than 60 characters
  • DeliciousSafari now opens a Safari window if there isn’t one, rather than doing nothing

As SIMBL is no longer needed you can delete it from /Library/InputManagers/SIMBL, but only do so if you know you have no other SIMBL plug-ins, otherwise those plug-ins will stop working.

A lot of the code has been reworked since 1.6 as the result of your feedback and I need testers to help ensure this release fixes many of the problems in 1.6 without introducing new ones. I want to begin beta testing 1.7 by June 8.

You’ll also get to preview some of the new features added in 1.7, such as favicon support, faster Safari startup, fast bookmark posting, and a toolbar button for posting to del.icio.us.

Several people have let me know that the DeliciousSafari menu doesn’t show up in Safari after installation. If you are experiencing this problem, please sign up for beta testing. This is an issue I’m trying to resolve in 1.7.

Again, if you’re interested in helping please contact me.

]]> http://delicioussafari.com/blog/2008/02/07/delicioussafari-documentation/feed/ http://delicioussafari.com/blog/2008/02/07/delicioussafari-documentation/ DeliciousSafari 1.6 - Tag Suggestions, Importer, & Enhanced Favorites http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/delicioussafari/~3/230098366/ http://delicioussafari.com/blog/2008/02/05/delicioussafari-16-tag-suggestions-importer-enhanced-favorites/#comments Wed, 06 Feb 2008 06:25:32 +0000 doug http://delicioussafari.com/blog/2008/02/05/delicioussafari-16-tag-suggestions-importer-enhanced-favorites/ Version 1.6 of DeliciousSafari is available. It includes tag suggestions, a Safari to del.icio.us importer, and an enhanced favorite tags menu.

Changes

  • Tag suggestions when adding bookmarks
  • Safari to del.icio.us bookmark importer
  • Combine tags to narrow results in favorite tags menu
  • Changed keyboard shortcut to Control+D
  • Fixed bug that prevented some URLs from being saved

Notes

You can change the keyboard shortcut for adding bookmarks (i.e. Control+D) via System Preferences. To do so:

  1. Open up System Preferences
  2. Select Keyboard & Mouse
  3. Select the Keyboard Shortcuts tab
  4. Press the + button
  5. Select Safari as the Application
  6. Enter Add del.icio.us Bookmark… as the Menu Title.
  7. Enter the keyboard shortcut of your choice. NOTE: some key combinations may conflict with other key combinations in the system, so you may need to experiment to find one you can use.

If for some reason you want to revert to 1.5 after installing 1.6 then you must use the Uninstall DeliciousSafari tool before trying to install 1.5. Otherwise the bookmarks will be stored in a format that only 1.6 can understand.

When saving a bookmark that you have already saved, DeliciousSafari now populates the fields with your exising values. This provides basic bookmark editing. Simply click on the bookmark and then re-add it. When you do, it will be filled with the values of your last post.

Changes

  • Displays current bookmark values when posting a bookmark you already have
  • Added WebKit compatibility

Notes

  • Due to a limitation with the del.icio.us API, the value of the do not share field is not remembered when re-posting a bookmark.
  • If you are upgrading, you should log out of DeliciousSafari and then log back in again to refresh all bookmarks after you have installed 1.5. You only need to do this once. This will ensure the notes field is displayed when editing a bookmark.

This version fixes a major problem introduced in Version 1.3 that caused tags to not be saved when running on Tiger.

I apologize to everyone who lost data as a result of Version 1.3. It was completely my fault and I could have easily caught the problem with proper testing. I will try not to repeat this mistake.

Again, you only need this update if you are running Tiger. If you are running Leopard, everything should be working fine.

Changes

  • Tags are now correctly set on del.icio.us when running on Tiger.
  • The notes field now correctly wraps text.
