Fixing multiple domains issue #15

Open vik-y opened 7 years ago

vik-y commented 7 years ago

As I can see from issues, this plugin breaks because now GFG is using multiple domains.

Here's an idea to fix the problem without using any cloud services. GFG has added a feature which lets users mark a problem as "to do" or "done". This plugin can be modified to do the following:

Once the user logs in to GFG the plugin scrapes the "done" list from their profile and update the local storage accordingly. Every time user marks a problem as "done" the plugin repeats the process. As the local storage cannot be shared across domains, whenever the user switches to a different domain of GFG the local storage of that particular domain can also be updated using the same technique as above.

I am interested in making this thing work. Do you still maintain this and accept PRs?

Hey Vikas

Great to hear that you're interested in contributing. Though I've not pushed changes since a long time but yes PRs are always welcome.
