my BD plugins & themes, focused on enhancing user experience

BetterDiscordStuff

Made a simple site displaying my stuff in a better way than this readme ever could:
Inve1951.github.io/BetterDiscordStuff - deprecated, see the official BD homepage for current information

~~Want to buy me a coffee? Find my PayPal link on above site.~~
Save your money. PayPal randomly locked my account. They refuse to tell me why and refuse to restore my access to it.


I mostly write my plugins in coffeescript.
I will release the source of fully featured (finished) code in coffee/.

Available source files:

  • Avatar Hover
  • now dead: Bot Info

  • Toggle Your Stuff
  • Quick Delete Messages
  • More Obvious DMs
  • Highlight Self

Plugins:

Restart No More obsolete
~~Live-updates your themes and plugins. Especially useful during development.~~
RNM functionality is now built into BetterDiscord.

Direct-Download
Download attached files directly within discord. Optionally installs themes and plugins from betterdiscord.net links.

Force-Close obsolete
~~Actually closes discord when clicking the close button.~~
Discord got this built-in since 2017-12-12. See window settings in the client.

Clear-Input-on-Escape
Clears the chat input when you hit escape inside it.

Link-Profile-Picture
Lets you click users' avatars on their profile page to view a bigger version in your browser.

Toggle-Your-Stuff
Toggle your plugins and themes using hotkeys.

Minimize-Shortcut
Provides you with a shortcut to show/hide/minimize discord.

Autocomplete-Hover-Fix
If the autocompletion menu selects entries without your doing then this is for you.

More obvious DMs
Flashes the discord taskbar icon and window upon receiving a DM until discord receives mouse or window focus. This makes it easier to spot DMs after leaving a fullscreen application.

Status Css css helper
Adds your status to

class list so you can style with it. .own-status-online, .own-status-dnd, etc.

Discord Experiments dead
~~Enables the experiments tab in discord's settings.~~
I dropped support for this. Reason being @discord repeatedly and intentionally breaking it over a short timespan.

Enable React-Devtools obsolete
~~Automatically loads the React Devtools for you.~~ ~~Requires React-Devtools being installed in your chrome browser.~~
This has become part of BetterDiscord - you can enable it in the settings under General > Developer.

Scroll-To-Last
Always scroll to last message when entering a channel.

Bot Info dead
~~Shows bots' infos from discordbots.org in user popouts. Depends on samogot's Discord Internals Library, so install that too.~~
Dead as of December 2018. discordbots.org's API changes disallow for continuation.

Local File Server
Hosts a selected folder so you can use local files in your theme.

Channel History
Allows you to switch channels using mouse 4 & 5 or the added GUI buttons.

Quick Delete Messages
Hold Delete and click a Message to delete it.

Multi Instance
Have several discord windows open same time. Ctrl+F12. (Cmd+F12 on osx)

Avatar Hover
Shows large profile pictures in a popout/tooltip.

Character Counter
Adds a character counter to chat inputs.

Highlight Self
Highlights your own username in message headers. Especially awesome when using compact chat UI.


Themes:

Drag-Fix mini-theme, obsolete
~~Makes it way easier to move the window.~~
Obsolete since discord's titlebar update.

Show-URLs mini-theme
Shows links' URLs in bottom left corner much like a browser does.

Compact-User-List mini-theme
Makes the user list look much like the server list. Works great with RadialStatus.

Horizontal Serverlist mini-theme, obsolete
~~Server Grid support can be enabled in the file.~~
Discontinued in favor of Gibbu's version.

Ez Light
Easy light theme. Should also work in combination with most dark themes. Born as a joke but not too bad.
