When linuxdo_username and linuxdo_password are configured, the plugin
automatically logs in via Playwright and captures the _forum_session
cookie from the browser context. No manual cookie copy needed.
Auth priority:
1. Manual linuxdo_session_cookie (if configured)
2. Auto-login via username+password (if configured)
3. Anonymous access (fallback)
Also update README and CHANGELOG with dual-mode auth documentation.
linux.do doesn't provide user-level API keys, and the Playwright form
login approach was fragile (depends on SPA rendering, CSRF handling,
selector stability). Replace with a simpler cookie injection approach:
- User copies _forum_session cookie from browser DevTools
- Plugin injects it into StealthySession's browser context
- Validates via /session/current_user.json
- Falls back to anonymous if cookie is invalid/expired
Config changes:
- Add linuxdo_session_cookie (string, optional)
- Remove linuxdo_username and linuxdo_password (no longer needed)
The viewport-only mode cut off long posts. Keep full page as default
while retaining all other optimizations (networkidle, element hiding,
smart wait).
- Use networkidle instead of load — waits for Discourse JS rendering
- Wait for .cooked selector — smart content detection with fallback
- Hide fixed/sticky elements via JS injection:
- .d-header (top navigation bar)
- .sidebar-wrapper (left sidebar)
- .topic-navigation-wrapper, .footer-nav
- Scroll to first post content for clean framing
- Default to viewport screenshot (not full_page) — practical preview
- Add screenshot_full_page config option for users who want full thread
- Adjust viewport to 1280×900 (16:9-ish)
