When we originally posted the challenge we weren't even sure it was possible to meet the requirements. However, once again the crowd proves how #superfreakinawesome it is! It was amazing how each person took a different approach to the problem.
kyleisidorey took an interesting approach to the challenge. He wrote a Google Chrome extension that overrode the entire Chatter profile page with a custom Visualforce page and controller which gives you the freedom to display whatever you want on the page.
Kenji776 went an interesting route and implemented a Force.com Sites Visualforce page and controller that injected JSON content into a user's Chatter profile page. It therefore kept the existing Chatter functionality but allows additional markup to be inserted.
But the winner was fractastical with, once again, a very elegant jQuery approach. Here's the video that he submitted with his code:
So the final roundup for the challenge is:
- Fractastical
- Kenji776
- kyleisidorey
Congrats to everyone who participated!


Good competition, fun to see the results of everyone's creativity!
ReplyDeleteKenji776 here. Nice job everyone. That was a lot of fun. Looking forward to the next one!
ReplyDeleteAll are tweakers .. really grt job guys
ReplyDeleteReally like Fractastical's solution - since the code is MIT licensed, I thought the result would be posted for all to use. I have looked all over the place on this site, but I can't find it. Could someone please aim me in the right direction? Thanks.

This no longer works, are salesforce blocking the javascript?
