Unofficial Browser Extensions
This page was copied from the archive at the Wayback Machine. Please help the wiki by correcting the formatting and updating details as needed.
For other tools made by players see Unofficial API Tools.
Here's a collection of known (unofficial) browser extensions or Greasemonkey scripts that add functionality to Glitch.
Note: These scripts are not endorsed by or affiliated with Tiny Speck, Inc. (the makers of Glitch) in any way, so there's no guarantee they'll either work or explode your internetz. |
Since the encyclopedia was updated on December 22, 2011, tools that affect it, like the achievements or locations checker, may mess up the formatting of the encyclopedia or cause other errors. |
Warning: Third-party extensions may potentially slow down the game/website or cause unexpected bugs - if you're having problems, please try disabling extensions first to determine if they are causing the problem before filing a bug report. Note from Jono on staff |
Installation
For Chrome or Opera, you don't have to do anything. Click the link to the script, and it will install. For Firefox, you need to install this Greasemonkey extension and restart the browser, first - then click on the link to the script, and it will install it for you. Both Safari and IE can't easily handle Greasemonkey scripts, so no advice at the moment.
Note for Chrome users: The latest version of Chrome blocks automatic installation for non-Web Store extensions and userscripts. Click here for instructions for manually installing extensions. |
