Feed reader mod for maxthon 4.1


S1v

Recommended Posts

I can't confirm that it doesn't work, sorry.

There IS one available, make sure, though, that you download the one for Mx4, NOT mx3:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/dsx395nu6t0irj4/M4_page.zip

Is that the one you've tried?

also it would be more useful if you would say *what* precisely is wrong with it, instead of saying, just that, it doesn't work. If you can do that for us, please?

Also Mx4 aka MCB, aka MxCB4, aka MCB4, or M4, and Maxthon 4, are ALL the same browser.

Yes, i'm using correct one.

For example, there is not possible to sort feeds in feed reader.

And feed reader in MX4 (MCB4 and so on.. :) is incorrectly resizing second row content in first view. But this isn't mod's fault.

Sorry, i can't show screenshot, as no flash allowed in work net.

you cannot sort feeds in any feed mod so far.

I don't know when that might find itself into existence. The most that could happen, would be a feature request, in which case, it would probably belong in user voices.

Glad to see my & Imanerd mod is still being used :)

The latest beta has some smallish changes to RSS Reader, but I fail to see what did they actually fix, so you can continue using the old mod version. Only you have to repackage it for EVERY new version or else it will cause bugs.

Here is the RSS reader part of page.dat file: http://rghost.net/46855443

And M4 packer/unpacker tool: http://rghost.net/39705430

Unpack \Maxthon3\Bin\page.dat, copy contents of app.zip to unpacked page.dat and overwrite, package everything back into page.dat

And enjoy fixed memory leak, snappier feed loading and increased screen space for reading.

PS page.dat from the Imanerd's dropbox link is an old one, don't use on newer M4 versions.

PPS I have updated my mod, fixed some bugs and readded subscription title! See link above!

thanks repacking that feed reader folder into the above-provided page.dat mod, for an update.

I've been so latent with college and what-not, so I haven't gotten a chance to notice much with Maxthon, sadly. Sorry you guys.

edit: https://www.dropbox.com/s/dsx395nu6t0irj4/M4_page.zip same url as the other. GOTTA GO, SORRY.

how is it outdated? It's mx4's version.

the only thing that was updated by the team was the reader.css file. I've already checked in diffchecker.

edit: oh THAT, sorry was in a BIG HURRY to get out to my mother who was waiting to pick me up, was already late for her. Sorry, was a rushed job. Re-doing.

Thank you both!

But sadly feed reader in MX4 has a lot of glitches itself. Starting from uncorrect number of unreaded lines, and to wrong row width.

Why does they added it to good working one from MX3?

May be it possible to replace it with old (MX3) one?

It's the same reader as M3 and unread number DOES change with each read item. Think you are looking in the wrong place. The number on the left indicates unloaded feeds.

Edit: And could you please explain what you mean by row width problem? You are aware the widths are re-sizable?

M3 and M4 RSS readers are the same. The code had not been changed for years.

And yes, it counts unread items incorrectly, sadly I'm not proficient in JS and cannot fix it myself. I've reported this before, but no reaction from developers.

Incorrect row width is a new thing - I think this started to happen on 4.1 beta? Sometimes closing the tab and reopening it fixes row width.

An update for RSS reader: http://rghost.net/46925648 Fixed one more interface glitch!

Since there are other tweaks I've made, I will upload your latest re-mod into my provided page.dat file.

And I'm not super-proficient in JS either. All I do is tweaks. Maybe a TINY bit of coding in my day, here and there, of Lua, or such, but not without help from the internet, and all of it's simple, or deriviative. I'm mediocre at best.

I say it a lot, but I will reiterate: I'm a tweaker, not a coder.

So, download link is here, if you prefer Dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/s/dsx395nu6t0irj4/M4_page.zip - just realized, after a day of either blindness or stupidity on my behalf, that this is the same share URL as the previous versions, duh sorry, so probably repetitive. Either way, will still leave it here, I suppose.

If you don't mind an alternate download link, I *love* to track how many downloads I get from people, for which Dropbox does not support, but Rapidshare does, so anyone, if you want to use this one, it's optional (switching over for public downloads, most likely; I'm considering it anyway, or at least dual location): https://rapidshare.com/files/2636506464/M4_page.zip

Imanerd, your page.dat is missing icons and images folders from RSS. I don't include them in my arch ...

erm oh...well, I had figured you've uploaded the whole complete rss folder. I didn't think anything had been left out; all I had done was replace the subfolder inside of the folder named app.

Re-uploading

I don't mean this as a personal attack or anything, sorry, but why haven't you mentioned that icon and image folders are excluded from your app folder? It would have been useful to know, not any offense intended...

edit: dropbox share link is the SAME for updated one.

Rapidshare NEW link is: https://rapidshare.com/files/2636506464/M4_page.zip

You can see it in your second screenshot :) . There are a lot of unused space after "..." in row with titles. This started from MX4, not 4.1.

Mess with unread count for me also started from MX4. In MX3 all was ok.

And sometimes clicking on any unread item marking as unread and first one.
