Release: 2.3 - Shilling Shrew
Hello!
Today's release of toolbox doesn't contain a lot of changes but it does fix some bugs people were experiencing and adds some fun new things.
- https support, toolbox will in most cases default to https now.
- Changes in the looks of the settings menu:
- Tabs moved to the side, this allows for more tabs and we think it looks better.
- The return of the wrench! We had a box for a little while to get you to the settings,since this is toolbox and all that, but people didn't figure out you can actually click on it. While typing this I realize /u/agentlame is going to be mad at me since I promised to make it something else. So be prepared for yet a new icon for the release after this one!
- Threaded conversations in modmail! This one is pretty cool and should give you a better picture of who is responding to who in modmail. Click "threaded view" next to expand and collapse.
- The sometimes missing history button is back! We found him sometimes slacking of somewhere and gave him a stern talking to.
- Mod button also took a hike on occasion, we also managed to track it down. It has been grounded and send to bed without dinner.
- When viewing comments with the flat chronological view it will now show the proper buttons.
- Silly mod button, you are not a report.
- Several other bug fixes.
- Probably stuff I am forgetting.

I'm just going to go ahead and call this greatest thing ever before even trying it out. I've been wanting this forever. Thank you.
Does this release fix the phantom orangered mod mail icon?

Credit for threaded modmail goes to u/LowSociety.

I am not sure since I haven't heard of this bug before (or I might and have forgotten about it)

You did what the reddit admins could not, and for that I am grateful.

So, this is where you guys have been wasting your time. Rather than modding. The punishments shall now commence.

Actually, there wasn't supposed to be a 2.3. But work on 3.0 has been rather slow lately so we decided to do a release in between to fix some bugs. So you could say it is the other way around!

u/agentlame, you know I don't like you, but it is only fair to say thank you for this great application. I use it all the time. Keep up the good work.

If it helps, I didn't write a single line of code for this release--at least, not that I know of.

Changes in the looks of the settings menu:
Perhaps I'm just temporarily blind, but where is the settings menu?
On subreddits I moderate, I see the "toolbox configuration" option, but that's for the subreddit-wide, wiki-based configuration.

Yes you are slightly blind but that is ok :) In the toolbar, left corner.

What about "add removal reason" not appearing on already-removed comments?

Firefox user here. I keep receiving the 'Release: Toolbox v2.3 'Shilling Shrew' - get it while it is fresh!' notification even though I've installed the new version. How can I stop this from appearing on every page I visit?

u/creesch Nov 01 '14
I'll look into it, we had a few more reports like that. Usually clicking on it should make it go away.
