Extension summary

The Garmin Forum Helper extension (further GFH) intends to make the use of the Garmin Forum easier and more comfortable for frequent users and moderators. The main features are as follows:

• Fixing diverse formatting issues and bugs in the forum • Identifying users by custom badges, nicknames, and avatars • Hot-keys for quick access to diverse sub-forums or even to external websites • Hot-keys for inserting reply templates into post answers • Automatically detecting spammers and external links • Revealing hidden text and links • Auto-hiding of spam • Notifications for new posts matching custom keywords • RSS reader for spam detection and keyword matching • Forum crawler scanning old post for spam

The GFH comes from an independent developer not affiliated with Garmin in any way, except for using their products. It is not an extension released by Garmin! It was developed with the intent of helping fellow users and moderators of the forum.
