Basecamp Journal Template geliştiren: Jell1231

Daily Journal Template helps you write your daily stand-up / journal entry in Basecamp Classic (basecamphq.com) in one click.
WHAT IT DOES
Instead of retyping the same structure every day, the add-on inserts a ready-made journal layout into the message or comment field you are editing. Dates and weekdays are filled in automatically. Empty items use Basecamp’s real bullet lists (the same style as the editor’s bullet button), so you can start typing immediately.

DEFAULT LAYOUT
• Today’s weekday and date (ddmmyy), plus an empty bullet for what you did
• Tomorrow’s weekday and date, a “To Do:” line, and an empty bullet for plans
• A blank line, then //LL for learnings
Example (on a Tuesday):
Tuesday (210726):
•
Wednesday (220726):
To Do:
•
//LL

SMART “TOMORROW”
• Weekdays map to the next calendar workday
• On Friday, “tomorrow” becomes the following Monday and is labeled “Next Monday”
• Saturday and Sunday are skipped (the add-on assumes you only journal on workdays)

HOW TO USE
1. Open your Basecamp Classic site (any *.basecamphq.com project).
2. Open a new or existing message/comment and click into the body field.
3. Click the blue “Journal” button (bottom-right of the page), or use the toolbar icon → “Insert into page”.
4. Fill in the bullets and post as usual.
Optional: turn on “Auto-fill empty body fields when focused” in the toolbar popup. When you focus an empty message/comment body, the template is inserted automatically. You can disable this anytime.

CUSTOMIZE YOUR TEMPLATE
Click the small light-bulb icon on the bottom-right of the Journal button (or choose “Edit template…” in the toolbar popup). A settings dialog lets you edit the template source.
Use these tokens—they expand when the template is inserted:
• #Today — becomes today’s weekday and date, e.g. Tuesday (210726):
• #Tomorrow — becomes the next workday header (or Next Monday (…) on Fridays)
• #Bullet — becomes a real empty Basecamp bullet list item
Default source you can edit:




To Do:


//LL
You can rearrange lines, add your own fixed text, or insert tokens with the chips above the editor. Save stores your template in the browser (local extension storage only). “Reset default” restores the original layout. A live preview shows how today would expand.

TOOLBAR POPUP
• Preview of today’s expanded template
• Insert into page
• Copy to clipboard
• Edit template…
• Toggle auto-fill

PRIVACY
This add-on does not collect, transmit, or sell personal data. Your custom template is stored only in your browser’s local extension storage. It only runs on Basecamp Classic pages (*.basecamphq.com) to insert text into the editor you are using.

REQUIREMENTS
• Firefox 140 or newer (desktop)
• A Basecamp Classic account and access to a project where you can post messages or comments
• Works in the WYSIWYG editor (bullet lists) and in Textile/plain textarea mode

TIPS
• If insert fails, click into the message body first, then press Journal again.
• After installing or updating, reload any already-open Basecamp tabs.
• Temporary debugging installs are removed when Firefox restarts; a signed AMO install persists.
