Google Groups KillFile 3.5 Released

Wednesday, May 7th, 2008

So Tim has been kind enough to address a number of bugs and add some great new features to the KillFile.

When you bring up the KillFile you can now

“Click X to reanimate the dead”
“Click Y to edit the filter”
“Click Z to edit regular expressions (experts only)”

He also added “Add Address” and “Add Topic” options as well as making it update automatically after pressing ‘X’, ‘Y’, ‘Z’

You can download the new version of the Google Groups KillFile right here. So give it a whirl and let me know how it goes.

Thanks again Tim!

Google Groups KillFile 3.4.3 Released

Tuesday, March 11th, 2008

I’ve addressed a couple of issues surrounding the last release and I’ve tested it against the name…@test.com type addresses in Topic & List view as well as testing a number of topics and it appears to be working correctly.

So please download the latest script Google Groups KillFile 3.4.3 and let me know how it goes. If you have any problems please let me know the URL and the name you are trying to block and I’ll look into it.

Happy Blocking :)

Google Groups Plus Released

Thursday, January 25th, 2007

So after a little tinkering around I’ve come up with a script that cleans the new UI up a little, i.e it removes everything in that third column and pops the useful bits found there into the nav. Check it out and see how you like it, you can run this alongside the KillFile script for the bestest browsing experience :) Enjoy.

GoogleGroups Update

Wednesday, January 24th, 2007

So I personally don’t like the new format, too much space is taken up by extraneous bits and bobs so I’m working on a version that will make things a lot cleaner. Will keep you all updated.

Doh!
