Bryan “Ironman” Stark (ID: 000000c6a8399122) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 08/08/2015 Original ideas for the script were great(from 2009-2013), but the site has changed so much that it is now defunct: the shortcut keys are invalid, the move to list function is invalid, there is no configuration section tab in settings. The only function that still works is to replace the horizontal tabs on the default RTM GUI and replace it with a vertical list on the left side of the page, which doesn't really format well with the rest of the way RTM is currently formatted. I really wish the developer still took interest in the Ext.

Karin Höthker (ID: 000000a7c62ff896) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/06/2015 Thank you! The vertical menu is awesome.

John S. (ID: 000000061d315fbd) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 01/07/2015 The screen layout still has some issues (sometimes everything looks fine, other times you have to re-load the tab to get it all to play nice). I know nothing about how to fix this, but you'd think someone could come up with an improvement to make this even a little bit better... It looks like nothing has been changed since 2013 - has the developer lost interest? Could someone else step up and take this on? Again, I know absolutely nothing about how to fix the issue with the "details box." Any ideas?
