How to Track Weight Watchers Points on MFP!!

@alloy1028 Thank you for the script. It works great, except it doesn't seem to get all the points quite right.
I was trying to figure out the formula that you were using and couldn't.
The formula that I've found on another web site is (calories + 4xSugar + 9xSat.Fat - 3.2xProtein)/33

I can't get the points to display in my diary what am I doing wrong?

Thank you to so many of you for your help. This used to work on Firefox, then didn't, then did occasionally. Now after tweaking line 5 and 6 of the script and removing the / - it works!

Has anyone been able to update the WW pts to the new "New Smart Points"?

I do mfp on my phone. But covert to points with the sp calculator. I count all foods, nothing free.

This has worked for me for a few weeks and is all of a sudden only showing 0 points for everything. Anyone else experiencing this?

Here's the link to the script I'm using: https://github.com/LeChuck71/MFP_WW_Points/raw/master/MFP_WW_Points.user.js

Hey glad it works for you

If you can check the points calculation and give me some feedback would be great.
I did it on some foods and recipes and it was fine compared to the original WW tool on an ipad.

Cheers

I followed the instructions and the column displays, but everything just calculates to 0. Any idea what I am doing wrong?

Nto working for me anymore. It's just calculating the points to zero now. @alloy1028 or @Zahpod71 any suggestions? Thank you in advance!

Not just me then

MFP changed it's column names so the script is a little wonky. I tried to submit a pull request to LeChuck71's script, but it looks like it's a read only repository. So here is the updated script that fixes that.

How do I install the script above, and what should I put in MFP for the display (columns and order). Thanks!!!

I have tried everything. I see the box smart points but its still zero

Save

Hi All,
Trying to do this now, in 2017. When I click on the link for the Greasemonkey install above, I get the message that the install was successful, then...nothing. Literally, the web address says <about:blank> I have the script info, I have Greasemonkey installed, and am using Firefox. But...I am not a computer-knowledgeable person. Any ideas to help me move along?
Thanks.

Any help for Mac users, please?
