Sounds awesome. Much better than drag-and-drop method. On Apr 4, 2012, at 12:49 PM, Nick Niemeir wrote:

Sorry, this doesn't actually implement merging, or streamline localhost (both of which were big topics at today's hangout). What this does is let you setup a bookmark that when clicked opens the same pages you had open, but with your home server open instead of whatever server you happen to be on. For example if I was browsing new.fed.wiki.org at say: So now I've got my version of the client javascript, plugins, etc. And if I'm logged in I can edit things and they get persisted back to my server instead of local storage associated with the other site. You can see the 'view's in the original url became 'new.fed.wiki.org' in the new one, and 'nrn.io' in the old one becomes 'view' in the new one. Unrelated server 'fed.wiki.org' stays the same. This seems to make for a pretty nice workflow. The bookmarklet works well, but i'm thinking about how to put this in the page, i'm not sure what the clean way to do that would be though. |
Maybe when you visit a page in someone else's recent changes it just does it without saying much. Recent changes could explain the behavior and offer the bookmark for other situations. On Apr 4, 2012, at 9:21 PM, Nick Niemeir wrote:

p.s. sounds like you were productive when I wasn't around to explain my thought on everything first. On Apr 4, 2012, at 9:21 PM, Nick Niemeir wrote:

Cool Nick, works for me. Even pictures come across. BTW : I used this ( http://userjs.up.seesaa.net/js/bookmarklet.html ) to make the bookmarklet. But I guess you could just have it automatically created as a button along the bottom of the page, alongside the "logout". No Ward! You were sadly missed. |
I like this bookmarklet approach, and I agree, having a button in the bottom panel makes sense. Perhaps one could include a text box to input your home url? I am not clear on the original method to fork pages from one server to another. Is this done only manually now, or is there some way for the user to take an entire view from one server and put it on his own with the [f] added? |
Is this here similiar to https://gist.github.com/nrn/3669857 ? |
Something I came up with during our discussion today, a bookmarklet that will let you bring the pages you are looking at back to your home server, rebasing you on that root url.
Just replace home with your home server, and make a bookmark who's location is the code box below.
