Installation instructions
[edit]Hint: It's much easier if you get ScriptInstaller, then navigate to User:CanonNi/Scripts/AlertAssistant.js and click "Install" at the top.
However, here's the manual method:
- Place
{{subst:iusc|User:CanonNi/Scripts/AlertAssistant.js}}on Special:MyPage/common.js or a skin-specific page, like Special:MyPage/vector.js. - Clear your cache and enjoy!
Usage
[edit]Note that the script will only load in the User talk: namespace.
To use the script:
- Click "CT Alert" in the Tools section on the right of your screen (Vector)
- Choose whether to use {{Alert/first}} (first) or {{Alert}} (regular)
- Select the topic in the dropdown menu
- Click "submit query"
And that's it! Plain and simple. Feel free to test the script on User talk:Sandbox for user warnings.
