EXACTLY the two things I came here for, yet quirky script

Hey,
I don't know if it's the script or if it just didn't load at first, but the "Most recent" feature started working only after I manually set my feed first. Maybe there was something at the end of my link that you didn't put in your parameters ? I can't tell. Now it works just fine anyway and I'll report any new issue from now on.
For the theatre mode it just doesn't work at all. Clicking a picture in my feed opens the theater instead of opening the picture's page. Opening it in a new tab/Ctrl+Clicking/Mousewheel clicking opens a new tab locked in a reload loop : the theatre opens, then closes, then page reloads and theatre is there again. I think that instead of changing the link you should simply block the div or whatever element it is that pops up as an overlay, like an ad blocker could do. I really hope you'll get this script to work because this is really the two things I wanted changed so you'd be my Facebook hero.
Thanks.

Going through a series of pictures from just one post is impossible because of the reload loop. If there's like 5 or more of them, clicking the "+X" overlaid picture will start making the page reload forever and forces users to disable the script for the time needed to check them.

Hello, sorry for the (very) late reply. I forgot I had this script (in progress) posted up here.

I thought it wouldn't be as complex as it turned out to be, mainly due to that reload loop and the necessity of having some theatre mode functionality remaining. I don't really use FB much at all, so I gave up on the script.

Well then. At least you took time to answer and I appreciate it. Thanks.

The FB "most recent" not working initially can be overcome by using this code:

if (document.URL == "https://www.facebook.com/") window.location.href = "https://www.facebook.com/?sk=h_chr";

I've updated the code for a stand-alone script here: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/18011-fb-most-recent

I've also added it to this new script that you may be interested in. If I ever end up attempting to wrangle the FB theatre mode and am successful, I'll be adding it to this script:
