[Script] WME Bookmarklets (1.0.6)

Post by Glodenox
This userscript augments the WME by making it possible to add and activate bookmarklets in the side panel.

How to use

This userscript allows you to add bookmarklets to a list in a tab on the side.

Installation instructions
> TL;DR: install as most other WME userscripts from its Greasy Fork page: INSTALL WME Bookmarklets

Userscripts are snippets of code that are executed after the loading of certain webpages. This script does this after the loading of the Waze Map Editor. In order to run userscripts in your browser, you are adviced to use Firefox or Google Chrome.

You will need to install an add-on that manages userscripts for this to work. There's TamperMonkey for Firefox and Chrome.

These add-ons will be visible in the browser with an additional button that is visible to the right of the address bar. Through this button it will be possible to maintain any userscripts you install.

For WME Bookmarklets, you should be able to install the script at Greasy Fork. There will be a big green install button which you will have to press to install the script.
When installing userscripts always pay attention to the site(s) on which the script runs. This script only runs on Waze.com, so other sites will not be affected in any way.

After installing a userscript, you will be able to find it working on the site(s) specified. Do note that if you had the page open before installing the userscript, you will first need to refresh the page.

TamperMonkey will occasionally check for new versions of these scripts. You will get a notification when a new version has been found and installed.

Thanks
This idea was pitched to me by carloslaso, so I'd like to thank him for that.

Three features I'd still like to add:
  • Make it possible to assign a hotkey to execute a bookmarklet
  • Import & export of the bookmarklets
  • Make it possible to see and edit a bookmarklet afterwards (currently you can only add or remove bookmarklets

Version 1.0.4 has just been released.
This version fixes the script activation with missing trailing slash in WME URL and also fixes the English (UK) support text again.

Version 1.0.5 has just been released.
This includes a fix for a breaking issue in the beta WME and improves the script's behaviour when the WME is using a language other than English.

Version 1.0.6 has just been released.
This release includes the fixes for the internal Waze object that will be removed in about two months, as well as a minor translation strings fix.
