Full list of features:

v10007.2019.01.18:

• Updated the addon compatibility updated WS2
WorldServer Production2 has been updated last month which required some features to be updated. This release should now address the compatibility with the most recent version of prod2.

• Implemented some more usability tweaks for MTD
Assessment requests will now have suggestions in the cc form based on the "Copy Project Manager on Complete:" field.

There is now a launch button that copies all the info from the MTD task, opens a WorldServer Project launch window with those info autopopulated. In the MTD task, click the launch button (rocket), login on the popup window, then select the client and the project type. It should now autopopulate the fields based from what was available in the MTD task. (For move files request, I suggest viewing the original task in the "other" tab, move files request dont have the locales in the task unfortunately).

There is now a copy path button that puts the project's root folder in the clipboard. You can quickly open that path using win+r then paste. Alternatively you can create an autohotkey to auto-open that folder.


v10006.2018.10.18:

• Various fix/tweaks for the log downloader

Finally updated the Project scope log downloader so that it works with the upgraded WS. I have also tweaked it a bit so that it can work with ADP's WS. ADP uses a custom cost model so this cost model needs to be set when downloading logs for their projects. It is hardcoded for now but I will make it customizable in the future in case they change it.

• Added a 'TM Jumper' in the tools view

Opening the TM view sometimes take some time to load the entire list. While it is not that stupendously long, it still loads slow enough to be pretty annoying at times. This would add a search box beneath the "Translation Memory" link in the tools view. It works by searching a string through the most recent index of the TM, you can update the index anytime through the same textbox.
This was mainly and experiment and I figure I'd use it as a sample for something that might get some use.

• Minimize CC list

Removes redundant entries on MTD's task completion cc option (didn't implent this for the task 'accept' view for now) and grouped people by department to make it tidier. Will add an option at a later point to enable/disable people from the list.
Updated the options page a bit
I have tweaked the options page a bit so the features are a bit more visible. I have also added placeholder for the future options for the current features.



v10005.2018.4.20 :

• Updated the Multi-Select Module in the Project launch Locale list.

The previously experimental Multi-select feature has now been more streamlined so you can just copy and paste the locales and will work as is.

This would let you input a tab or line separated list of languages and it would select the locales for you. Copying the list of languages on MTD tasks (ones with checkboxes) would essentially give you a tsv so you can use that here.

Note: I have only tested it out in Chrome although I haven't encountered any issues and it seems to work fine. To be sure, double check the languages it selects for now. If something looks odd please let me know.


• Cosmetic update for the show-all button and show-filtered-locales button.

I have changed the text based button into icons. The star button displays the minimal/filtered list, and the list button would display the entire list.

v10004.2018.3.23 (changing to this version scheme)

• Organized MTD Tasks' CC list

Currently there are a lot of duplicate and inactive entries on the CC list, so typically you end up having to use a search function to get to the person you want to cc. I've organized it a bit so that it would be more usable.

Updated: I updated the list and tried to improve the grouping (removed reduntant roles like "telesales"). I will try to create an option field for this so people can be added in and out, for now it is working like a blacklist so new people will not be filtered out by default. If I missed somebody on the list please let me know.


v2018.3.15.3

• Adds an optional On-hover link to "View All" respective TMs, TDs, Clients, Project Types pages without pagination

WS would only display one page under the pages listed above. I think this has been implemented to save bandwidth but without having a search filter, you would most likely need to click the "Load All" button anyway meaning you will still end up loading everything plus that initial single page. For now, this addon now displays an extra link when you hover around the links for those pages, it can be completely disabled on the option.


• Adds an optional "indirect-feature" to help multi-select locales (with the help of browser console) based on a tsv user input

This feature lets you input a tab separated list of languages and it would generate a console command. Copying the list on languages on MTD tasks (ones with checkboxes) would essentially give you a tsv so you can use that here, just be sure that there are no languages selected into the right side of the grid yet as the indices get shifted. Once you have generated the command, it will be printed on the browser console and you can just copy and paste that output on that same console and it should select the languages that it found. Unfortunately, Chrome does not let you access global objects on the page through the addon so I can't control the grid directly without re-instantiating it completely. I will probably just revisit this after the WS update as I'd like to make sure first that this module will stay mostly the same.


• Fixes MTD issue where line breaks on task comments and project notes are not displayed properly

This is a temporary fix for line breaks not displaying on chrome or firefox on certain parts of MTD. I will be removing this once this is officially fixed on the backend. Keep in mind that others may still not see the breaks properly but it should help on your machine at the very least.

• Updated how the addon stores the user's configurations

Previously, I created a method that sets the initial settings under chrome.runtime.onInstalled, I didn't realize this was fired on addon update as well and not just on install so it ended up initializing the configuration again back to default when the addon was updated. I have updated how the addon sets the initial configuration now so this should not happen again.


v2018.3.8.1:

• Enlarged some of the small checkboxes in WorldServer

Very minor tweak to scale up the checkboxes so they are easier to select.


• Adds an "Extract Text" button for Ceros Preview pages

Ceros platform is currently not that localization friendly since they don't really have a way to export and import content at the moment so there is a lot of manual work for now specially the DTP. The output of this should give you the text, it's CerosSDK ID and CCS Selector so it should make the prep and post production process easier. (preview.ceros.com)


v2018.2.26.6:

• Adds a "Download logs" button on project view page

This button will download all the logs on the filtered-out projects. By default, the download limit is 50 projects to avoid misuse. The download limit can be configured on the options.


• Minimize the displayed languages on project launch page

Filters out some of the uncommon languages from project creation view. There is a bare options page that let you customize the languages for now. Shift click still selects all languages hidden in between but ctrl+click works fine. I tried fixing this in the front-end but it seems like there is an event that marks the rows# index wise(first to last), even removing the element from the DOM doesn't work and still picks the rows in between.


• Highlights entire row upon hover on Project List, Task List, TM List, Etc..

Just a minor tweak to highlight the background of the row you are currently hovering over so you can see it better.
