Issues

  • Make config... well... configurable, so user can set his/her own options (save with localStorage)
  • Make it work for suggested edits too
  • Text in the edit summary is a bit messed up when you click edit a second time on a different post on the same page

    This doesn't seem to work. I don't see the check boxes when I click the edit link and launch the Edit page. Commented Jan 25, 2014 at 1:45
  • @ADTC You don't have 2000 rep. This script requires that. Commented Jan 25, 2014 at 1:48

    That doesn't make any sense. I'm always making suggested edits, and I would find this script incredibly useful in making it easier. I'm constantly finding myself typing the same summaries over and over again. Commented Jan 25, 2014 at 1:52
  • @ADTC Alright, added [feature-request] (I haven't actually worked on this for a while... or at all, so I think I will now :P) Commented Jan 25, 2014 at 1:52
  • Mind explaining what .edit-post is, and whether it has to be clicked before the check boxes can be displayed? I had been trying to modify the script to work with the suggested edit page, but can't get it to even make an alert for the life of me.. I thought both suggested edit and >2000 rep edit are the same page in code, so it just flies past my head why this script wouldn't work for suggested edit... Commented Jan 25, 2014 at 7:03
  • Actually Chrome's Inspector shows $ is not defined. Even changing to jQuery doesn't help: jQuery is not defined. Now the question is, how did you get the extension to run its JS only after jQuery JS was loaded? Commented Jan 25, 2014 at 7:47
  • I have made changes to the script to make it run in Chrome, and to make it work for suggested edits. Note that this is not a revised version. Doorknob, please use this script to improve yours. I hope you will test in Chrome as I found the localStorage to break. Download from Dropbox Commented Jan 25, 2014 at 9:05

    This doesn't work for me at all - I have 2000 rep, but I don't see the checkboxes Commented Dec 4, 2014 at 8:05

    For those having problems with this script, see Request for script, or fix, to add Edit-Reason checkboxes -- where you can find whole new script(s) that are tested against the latest Stack Exchange and work for all edits, suggested edits, and review edits -- irregardless of how much rep you have.
