Canny extension for End-users Autor: naqtn

What this extension does

Canny extension for End-users adds power-user features to feedback sites that run on Canny, a feedback collection service. It improves the post-listing experience by surfacing information that Canny does not show by default, by marking posts that match criteria you choose, and by letting you hide posts that fall outside a filter.

Where it works

The extension activates on:

• Any *.canny.io site (e.g. feedback.canny.io)
• feedback.vrchat.com (a known alias for VRChat's Canny instance)

You can try it on the Canny project's own feedback board: https://feedback.canny.io/

Features

• Show author name and creation date of each post in the board listing. Canny normally shows neither; with this extension you can scan author and recency at a glance.
• Mark your own posts with a distinct background color, so you can spot them in long lists.
• Mark posts by specific authors you configure by name — same idea, applied to other contributors.
• Filter by author: hide all posts except your own, or only show posts by authors you specify. Canny does not provide author-based filtering, so this fills that gap.
• Hide posts from other boards: when Canny's cross-board search returns posts from boards other than the one you are viewing, restrict the listing to the current board only. Independent of the author filter.
• Each feature can be enabled or disabled independently through the extension's options page or the toolbar popup. Your settings are stored on your device and persist across sessions.

Privacy
