Review: OK - script works, but has bugs

Download links doesn't work

The URL that the script now generates begins like this http://https//live.staticflickr.com/ but it should be https://live.staticflickr.com/ instead for it to work.

So on this site for example the 'Download 1600 x 1200 px' points to http://https//live.staticflickr.com/7869/32552591487a63656ab8dhd.jpg instead of https://live.staticflickr.com/7869/32552591487a63656ab8dhd.jpg.

There's a similar problem with the links in thumbs but the faulty URL is a little different.

I can confirm this. The colon after "https" is gone, making Firefox automatically add "http" at the beginning and breaking the URL completely.

Please don't let this incredibly useful script die!

I have also suffered this problem when I was trying to make a URL of my website named My Career Saver but my friend fixed it is running perfectly. Therefore, I will ask for a solution from my friend and then I will tell you.

But is that really all that's wrong? Maybe on the download links on the image page but on the thumbs link there's a lot more than just http that is added. Not at the computer right now so cant show exactly what it looks like.

That's odd, the script won't work at all in Firefox but with Pale Moon it's back to normal. I'm using the last version of Firefox that wasn't ruined, 56.0.2, but that shouldn't matter should it?

It works with 66.0.1. Much appreciated.

Just a minor complaint: in the group pool view (https://www.flickr.com/groups/xxxxx/pool), the script adds "Upload:" at the end of the link, so it looks like this: "OPEN 2034 x 1536 Upload:"

I'm using firefox 52 and it works. Maybe it's conflicted with some addons or other scripts.

After "Update:" is the uploaded date, but somehow the script cannot get it from your browser. And those text is added to "title" property which should only be displayed in tooltip. Sadly I'm not using late firefox so I can't test.

I tried disabling all add-ons except Greasemonkey and all scripts except this one but it still doesn't show. So where do I go from there?
