Description

This Browser Extension enhances the UI of g+ and adds an overlay that can Tag people based on filters
This is especially useful if you like Tag multiple people based on a subject

For example, you know that some people like to be notified of IT related stuff? Add them to the list and Tag them automatically, that way you save a lot of time and do not forget some people

Howto Use:
Column 1:
In this column, highlight the people you like to tag.
If you edit, try and keep consistent with JSON
It's always:
["Person Name"],["Whatever that person likes"],["ID"]
The person name and what he/she likes, does not matter really. You can write whatever you like. The ID however is important. Wrong ID; wrong person tagged

Example
[["Person 1","IT, Art, Cooking, no sports","12345678912345678912"],
["Person 2","Sailing, Reading, Sports","12345678912345678915"]]

Column 2:
This colum enables support for Hashtags,
Hashtags are topics for quicker searching. For example #cooking is a hashtag
If you edit this table:
["Displayname"],["Filterhelper"]
The Displayname is what's actually written on the website, eg #cooking
The filterhelper is there so that the filters work with more ease for example, it could be, vegetables, meat, vegan for #cooking
[["sailing","boat, sailing, water"],
["cooking","vegetarian, meat, fish, vegetables"]]

Column 3:
This column is enterily for ease of use.
If you select a filter and apply it, it will automatically select the Users and Hashtags based on the filter name. It will also deselect a user that does not like something
If you edit this table:
["Like"],["Dislike"]
Like is the positive filter, and dislike the negative
For example, Like is Sports, and Dislike is no Sports.
People who don't like sports posts won't be tagged

[["Sport","No Sport"],
["Sailing",""]]

Careful, all save functions make use of the HTML5 local storage option. So it is not persistent if you change computer or even the browser.
Local backup copies are always nice


The save and restore button are there, so that you can save the highlighted people and on reload of the website, don't have to select/filter them again

Too big?
Double click the Title and it will be minimized to the g+ Post box. double click the name there again and it's maximized again

Known Problems:

1. It only works on the g+ Post field


[Changelog]

05.05.2013
Added function to minimize/maximize window
Hopefully got rid of the bug that the tagging only works when the text box has been clicked once.

16.06.2013
Changed the Overlay to only be visible on post box open
should clear up the UI a bit

What has inspired us?

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
