User highlighting doesn't stick

Open fireattack opened this issue 6 years ago • 3 comments

  • My RES version: v5.10.3

What's the problem?

Upon click "highlight" button on the hover card of any user, it worked; but after refreshing the highlighting is gone.

Are there any related posts in https://github.com/honestbleeps/Reddit-Enhancement-Suite/issues or /r/RESissues?

No

What other browser extensions are installed?

No

I originally designed this with the intent that "highlights are temporary and shown on this page, user tags are saved and shown sitewide". Think I should change that to "highlights are saved for this post"?

I think saving for this post makes a lot of sense. One of my main usecases for tags are to follow one user for the duration of a thread. Take an example of an /r/askreddit post where a particular user who is not the OP has specific domain knowledge that makes their comments particularly interesting for this debate, but you might not be interested in following them outside of this thread. Now imagine this being an active thread, and the user in question is actively posting comments. You might want to refresh to see new activity.

Will it be possible to set the user highlighting permanently pretty like tags?
