  BetterKeka helps prevent accidental weekly timesheet submissions and makes your daily Keka workflow smarter and more efficient.
  
  In many teams, users mistakenly submit their weekly timesheets too early, which locks entries and requires admin intervention to fix. BetterKeka solves that problem with multiple layers of protection — and goes further with a real-time work progress dashboard, persistent filters, and more.
  
  Key Features
  
  • 5-layer protection — hides the Submit Weekly button completely on locked days (CSS, JS, click blocking, and API interception)
  • Real-time work progress dashboard — track your weekly effective hours directly from the popup
  • Custom weekly goal — set your own weekly target (e.g. 40 h or 45 h) and watch your progress in real time
  • Persistent task filters — your "Assigned to" filter on project pages is remembered automatically
  • Single-step confirmation — on allowed days, asks "Are you sure?" before letting you submit
  • Clock-out reminder — a gentle prompt to submit your timesheet before clocking out
  • Instant activation — works immediately after install, no page refresh needed
  • Paused warning — shows a visible banner when the extension is disabled so you know you're unprotected
  • Task restriction — prevents adding tasks directly from the timesheet to enforce centralised management via the Projects module
  • Enhanced comment UX — the comment dialog is larger by default and freely resizable
  • Configurable — choose which day submissions are allowed (default: Friday)
  • Dark mode support — switch between Light, Dark, and System theme modes
  • Task creation reminder — get notified before 5 PM to stay compliant with task logging
  • Works directly within the Keka timesheet interface
  • Lightweight and fast with no performance impact
  • Secure — does not access or store any personal or sensitive data
  
  Why use BetterKeka?
  
  • Prevent accidental early submissions that lock your timesheet
  • Eliminate admin unlock requests
  • Know exactly how many hours you've worked this week at a glance
  • Clear visual indicators show whether you're protected or not
  • Save time for employees and managers alike
  
  How it works
  
  On non-allowed days, the extension completely hides the weekly submission button and blocks any submission attempts at multiple levels. On the allowed day, it adds a confirmation step so you never submit by accident. The popup shows your live weekly progress, remaining hours, and lets you refresh on demand. It only modifies the user interface and does not interact with Keka servers or APIs.
  
  What's New in v1.4.0
  
  • Custom Reminders — customize task reminder times to match your work routine instead of fixed alerts
  • Project Tab Filters & Sorting — remembers your Assigned To filter and adds an Order By dropdown to sort tasks instantly
  • Exit Warning Protection — shows a browser close warning when leaving without clocking out or logging tasks
  • Clock-out Confirmation — a gentle reminder prompt when clocking out to verify weekly submission
  • Stability & UI/UX Polish — vertical changelogs with pagination, high-contrast menus, and goal interaction polish
  • Plus all the major features from v1.3.0 (Dark mode support, simplified settings dashboard, and weekly progress meters)
  
  Note: This extension is not affiliated with Keka and is intended to improve user workflow efficiency.

  In many teams, users mistakenly submit their weekly timesheets too early, which locks entries and requires admin intervention to fix. BetterKeka solves that problem with multiple layers of protection — and goes further with a real-time work progress dashboard, leave visibility, persistent filters, and more.
  
  Key Features
  
  • 5-layer protection — hides the Submit Weekly button completely on locked days (CSS, JS, click blocking, and API interception)
  • Real-time work progress dashboard — track your weekly effective hours directly from the popup
  • Custom weekly goal — set your own weekly target (e.g. 40 h or 45 h) and watch your progress in real time
  • Leave-aware weekly goal — weekly target automatically reduces by 9h per approved leave day, keeping your remaining hours accurate
  • Upcoming leaves card — see your approved upcoming leaves at a glance in the popup, with Full Day, First Half, and Second Half labels
  • Live clock ticker — today's worked hours update in real time in the popup while you are clocked in, no manual refresh needed
  • Gated clock-out — a 2-step confirmation modal guards clock-out actions to prevent accidental clock-outs before the timesheet is submitted
  • Persistent task filters — your "Assigned to" filter on project pages is remembered automatically
  • Task sorting — an Order By dropdown lets you sort project tasks instantly, defaulting to Latest First
  • Single-step confirmation — on allowed days, asks "Are you sure?" before letting you submit
  • Task creation reminder — get notified before 5 PM to stay compliant with task logging
  • Custom reminder times — configure reminder times to match your work routine instead of using fixed alerts
  • Exit warning protection — shows a browser close warning when leaving without clocking out or logging tasks

  Why use BetterKeka?
  
  • Prevent accidental early submissions that lock your timesheet
  • Eliminate admin unlock requests
  • Know exactly how many hours you have worked this week at a glance, adjusted for approved leave
  • See upcoming leave in the popup without opening Keka
  • Clear visual indicators show whether you are protected or not
  • Save time for employees and managers alike
  
  How it works
  
  On non-allowed days, the extension completely hides the weekly submission button and blocks any submission attempts at multiple levels. On the allowed day, it adds a confirmation step so you never submit by accident. The popup shows your live weekly progress, remaining hours, upcoming leaves, and lets you refresh on demand. It only modifies the user interface and does not interact with Keka servers or APIs.
  
  What's New in v1.6.0
  
  • Upcoming Leaves Card — see your upcoming approved leaves directly in the popup. Each entry shows whether it is a Full Day, First Half, or Second Half.
  • Leave-Aware Weekly Goal — weekly target hours automatically reduce by 9h per approved leave day so your remaining hours stay accurate.
  • Clock-Out Hours Fix — today's hours are correctly preserved when navigating away from the attendance logs page after clocking out.
  • Live Clock Accuracy — "Since Last Login" duration is correctly carried forward from the stored clocked-out value when the live timer is unavailable.
  • Reliability improvements — more accurate leave row parsing prevents duplicate entries; sync button in the Upcoming Leaves card is consistent across all states.

  Keka Weekly Lock helps prevent accidental weekly timesheet submissions before the end of the workweek.

  Key Features:
  • 5-layer protection — hides the Submit Weekly button completely on locked days (CSS, JS, click blocking, and API interception)
  • Two-step confirmation — on allowed days, asks "Are you sure?" before letting you submit, then gives a 30-second window to click
  • Instant activation — works immediately after install, no page refresh needed
  • Paused warning — shows a visible banner when the extension is disabled so you know you're unprotected
  • Configurable — choose which day submissions are allowed (default: Friday)
  • Works directly within the Keka timesheet interface
  • Lightweight and fast with no performance impact
  • Secure — does not access or store any personal or sensitive data
  
  Why use this extension?
  • Prevent accidental early submissions that lock your timesheet
  • Eliminate admin unlock requests
  • Two-step confirmation catches mistakes even on allowed days
  • Clear visual indicators show whether you're protected or not
  • Improve accuracy of timesheet entries
  • Save time for employees and managers
  
  How it works:
  On non-allowed days, the extension completely hides the weekly submission button and blocks any submission attempts at multiple levels. On the allowed day, it adds a confirmation step so you never submit by accident. It only modifies the user interface and does not interact with Keka servers or APIs.
  
  What's New in v1.1.0:
  • Submit button is now fully hidden instead of greyed out
  • Two-step confirmation flow on allowed days
  • Works instantly on install — no refresh needed
  • Warning banner when extension is paused
  • AJAX-level request blocking as a safety net
