Description Ever seen a kick-ass comment and thought to yourself "I wish I could +fav that"?

Comment Collector is a userscript that lets you add comments to your collections just like deviations. We can already see your favourite art on deviantART, and now it's time you share your favourite slices of the community fun!

What Comment Collector does:
Allows anyone to use their art collections as home for collections of comments, too!
Adds a little button in the top right of every comment, reply, forum thread, forum reply, etc. — visible only on mouseover!
Makes it easy to make collections that combine comments, the description and art, due to the comments being placed inside the collection description!
Allows you to see any and all comment collections — even when you're not logged into dA.

Collect your favourite comments from over the years, or collect comments on a particular subject or for a particular purpose in different comment collections — the possibilities are endless, and you decide how, why and for what purpose you collect and present your collected comments. Now get collectin', I'd love to see what comments you people find collection-worthy!

Click here to install Comment Collector!
Requires Mozilla Firefox and the Greasemonkey extension.

Please note: It is required that you have this script installed to see comments in collections. However, if you don't have the script installed, you will still see that comments have been collected — you will just get links to the comments instead of seeing the actual comment right in the collection. (You may optionally want to link to this script in the collection description so that other people may install it and see your collected comments!)

Enjoy!

This script is dual-licensed; either CC-BY (above) or the MIT License applies.

Oh, and if you want to see a comment collection after you've installed the script, check out my silly collection !

Note that this userscript is merely a personal project and NOT a service of deviantART.com.

Update August 17th, 2009: Version 1.0beta2 was released that prevents a bug that occured when dA changed some of its CSS. If the comments in a collection look odd, install the updated version of the script (same link)!

Update January 2010: IF YOU HAVE A COMMENT COLLECTION THAT DOESN'T LOAD, MAKE SURE ALL COMMENTS ON IT ARE PUBLICLY ACCESSIBLE. You can't collect comments from restricted areas (such as special forums or group backrooms, etc.).

Update March 2010: Due to an update in some code, it's required to download and install the newest version to keep comment collections working!

Update June 2010: Fixed comment styles to v7.

Some ideas: Have you tried dragging the userscript to the top of the userscripts in Tools > Greasemonkey > Manage User Scripts? Have you tried temporarily disabling all other user scripts to see if it then works? (If that then works, try re-enabling the other scripts one at a time to find the culprit) Have you tried looking in the JavaScript console for errors (Ctrl+Shift+J)?

theres a lot of warnings in the JavaScript console about Comment Collector that all say skipped/dropped declaration. i dont know script, but maybe that could be the problem

It doesn't work! I can see collected comments but I can't see the little plus to make a collection of my own!

It should only be visible when you mouseover the individual comments. But even then it's not?

Rose-Rayne In reply to electricnet [2009-08-13 19:38:39 +0000 UTC]

I'm hovering over the comments but it's still not visible. I can see your comment collection though so I know it's installed.

This is the most epic thing in the universe. So many times I've bookmarked comments... now I can go through them and add them all to a collection instead ='D

WTH?

Like, the first ten times I tried to +fav a comment, I didn't see the "You're almost done" modal, I thought the userscript did this all for me automatically... And now I +fav a comment, see the modal... I just lost, like, ten comments! D: And I feel like such a n00b!

You'll have to describe what happens when it doesn't work, or otherwise this'll forever be a bit vague.

monochromatic-stains In reply to electricnet [2009-06-20 08:00:22 +0000 UTC]

Well. It doesn't show the actual comments, only the writing on the side with the link to the comment.

Also, it would be pretty kick ass if the hover-comment-collect thing worked in your message centre (unless it does and something isn't working on my end?)

This is pretty sweet

But, I can't seem to see the actual comments in my Comments Collection (I've only added one as of writing this). Did I do it wrong? Or is there some other GM script messing it up?
