kbin Linked Comment Enhancer - Highlight comments that you open links to and scrolls to prevent them from being hidden

Highlights the comment you were linked to and scrolls to it

This script highlights comments when you open a link to them, and scrolls to the comment to make sure it doesn't get hidden.

Here's what it looks like:

Is it possible with a script to add a context link to posts in a users profile? Since notifications aren't working reliably, it would be nice to quickly get back to a comment to see if someone responded.

edit: There is already copy url under "more" which gives me some hope.

If you middle click, or ctrl-click the "copy url" link, it'll open it in a new tab, sorta like the context/permalink links on reddit

Nice, didn't even occur to me that that was a link.

When using the light theme, and when the fragment is #comments, the space before indented comments is higlighted (screenshot).

My fix was to add "comments" as an exception on line 38:

38c38
<     if (comment && comment !="settings") {
---
>     if (comment && comment !="settings" && comment != "comments") {
