Hi there,
Lately I'm noticing the script wasn't displaying Game rate anymore. And as no game have the ratings, all games are filtered. Is that something general or only with me? Is there something I should do? Or should I just disable the rate filters and wait for a new version?
Comment has been collapsed.
Just set the minimum rating to 0? No games have rating? I don't know the source of this problem, yet, it seems you and another user are having it.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes, I did it and "everything went fine" - the games are displayed as if the filter wasn't set...
but as you see, this doesn't solve the rating system, just displayed the games, without rating... as I already talked to you, the rating system used to work (and I actually got addicted to it, was using it all the time!), but now is like "everything is 0 rated"... no icon, nothing!
Comment has been collapsed.
Fixed. You will probably have to delete esgst_gcCache from your localStorage to reset the cache.
Comment has been collapsed.
wiped the Storage, still didn't work for me... :/
Example of esgt_gcCache generated after wipe:
{"achievements":1,"dlc":1,"earlyAccess":0,"genres":"Simulation","linux":0,"mac":0,"multiplayer":1,"name":"Rise of Flight: Legendary Bombers","price":20,"rating":"","ratingType":"","removed":0,"steamCloud":0,"tags":"Simulação","tradingCards":0,"lastCheck":1503318353582},"244410":
tried to wipe again and change my steam to english, same problem.

it's insignificant really, but just fyi:

Yeah, probably related to the same issue you reported about the changelog. I'll probably have to use Dropbox.

you could store it in the script itself, it's done using a base64 encode or something like that

v6.Beta.31.3 (August 23, 2017)
Moved the script's icon to Dropbox.
The script's changelog is now stored inside of the script.
tis a good idea, one he already implemented. ^^
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't know if I'm just to stupid to use it, but I can't get the new exception filters to work.
I don't want anything extraordinary, just exclude wishlisted games and multi copy GAs from the usual filters. So I created a new exception, via manage exception, with min copies set to 2 and ticked wishlisted and saved this (GA filters says 2 exceptions) . But nothing happens, all games still get filtered. (no console errors)
Do I have to activate it manually somehow or what else am I missing?
EDIT:
I managed to add a wishlisted exception now. Problem was, that i didn't realize there is an 'and' conjunction when choosing multiple options in one exception and that you have to create multiple exception for an 'or' conjunction.
Still can't get an exception for multiple copies to work though.
Comment has been collapsed.
and ticked wishlisted
ticked it until it was uncolored? (hide-all)
pay attention to the legend on the right hand side. there is 3 toggles for each option.
show all = ticked / only show = colored / hide all = colorless & unticked
from the sounds of it, you are reversing what you want filtered. in order for only wishlist to show up, you want it to "only show"
Comment has been collapsed.
disregard everything i said. i didn't realize it was that heavily revamped. it's certainly got a few issues now that it's been revamped.
most notably for me... "multiple copy" doesn't even have an option exception and it hides anything with more than one copy being given away.
edit: option to exception
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah only realized it was changed myself.
As i understand it, to make multiple copy an exception you have to set the min copy to >1, but maybe my assumption is wrong.
Comment has been collapsed.
no, that side would only show you giveaways with copies more that 1. there is also supposed to be stuff below the "categories" section that has a few exception options. and you're supposed to be able to make an exception for multiple copies. but that feature seems to be lost/missing/bugged.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm not sure what you mean with "below the categories".
The exceptions are now all the way to the right and have to be created manually via "manage exceptions". In this pop-up I can choose min copies=2 but it doesn't seem to do anything.
Comment has been collapsed.
oh wow, okay. yeah, i see now. not a fan at all tbh. i didn't care for the whole preset thing to begin with, and now am forced to use it.
but yeah, i can't get it to function properly either. particularly still stuck with the min copy issue.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm looking into it, but yeah, setting min copies to 2 is the correct way to set an exception for multiple copies.
Comment has been collapsed.
I tried to explain in the tooltip that each exception is a giveaway, but looks like I failed. :P
Comment has been collapsed.
I read it and I thought I knew what you meant with it, but the and/or conjunctions one can create with it, I missed completly, which lead to it first not working at all :)
Comment has been collapsed.
can we get two different settings for the filter.. "basic filter" (no presets) & "advanced filter" (this preset thing i don't care for)?
Comment has been collapsed.
But I already told you, the feature has been redesigned to work only with presets. You don't need to really use presets if you don't care for them, just set your filters and save, done, just like before. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
but it seems i now have to set it up for every single page type. 20 group pages, main page, wishlist page, group page. prior it was just one setup and go, now it's a setup for every type of page.
Comment has been collapsed.
It was always a setup for every type of page though. The feature has been divided for a long time now in: main page, wishlist, recommended, new, group, groups and popups. Not sure what you mean by 20 group pages, setting the filter for only one group page should affect all. If it's not happening to you, you might have encountered a bug.
Comment has been collapsed.
And the presets are actually better if you use the same setup for different type of pages, because then you can just use the same preset on all those pages.
Comment has been collapsed.
almost all page types i don't want filtered at all, what's the default per page type? my saved preset?
nevermind. i see now. each page has it's own blank default. that's not as bad as i thought then. sorry for my confusion.
Comment has been collapsed.
yeah i noticed after i had asked, thank you. it's not nearly bad as i imagined it at first. ^^
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah, I can see why you thought you would have to set a preset for each page, because the default preset is only created when you visit that page.
Comment has been collapsed.
naming each exception is a little weird imo, but it still works i guess. =)
Comment has been collapsed.
The naming part probably works better for people who want to be a bit creative and make exceptions for conjunctions that involve more settings, but still, it's necessary if one wants to delete an exception. :P
Comment has been collapsed.
i also still can't get it to filter properly even if just concentrating on the main page type. (31.4)
Comment has been collapsed.
what kind of exception(s) are you trying to create?
Sry didn't see the image at first.
Same porblem i had at first. All options selected in one exception create an 'and' conjunction, meaning you would only select GAs that fit all those options.
You need to create one exception for each option.
Comment has been collapsed.
edit added an image..
2+ copies, pinned, group, whitelist, & wishlist
(image is missing wishlist)
Comment has been collapsed.
You need to create one exception for each option.
oh wow, per type of page i want filtered.. this is a half-day long project..
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't know if it is possible with the popups you use, but maybe you can add an 'or' between exceptions and an 'and' between the options in one exception. This might make it easier to understand for people who don't see this connection at first (like me :) ).
Comment has been collapsed.
I should probably just explain better in the tooltip with more examples. Adding and/or would be more confusing in my opinion.
Comment has been collapsed.
This could work too. At least for me it would have been easier to spot the problem in the beginning if there had been some and/or indication. But I m also coming from a software development background, so it might be different for other people.
Comment has been collapsed.
the sidebar isn't getting fixed in the main page for me, seems to work fine elsewhere, no errors in console(well no one that seems related to your script anyway)
and could you make the create/edit exception popup 2 or 3 columns wide?
Comment has been collapsed.
Are you sure the page isn't just small? The sidebar does not get fixed if the height of the page is too small.
Comment has been collapsed.
don't think that the page height is the problem, screen is 1366x768:
Comment has been collapsed.
By height I mean the height of the page. For example, since your window height is 768, the sidebar will only get fixed when the height of the page is bigger than (768 * 2). It is like that because in some cases, fixing the sidebar when the page is too small causes some weird issues in the screen.
Comment has been collapsed.
the content area is more like 700px. hum thought that it would need a minimum height to fix but i think that 2 * (content area height) may be a bit more than needed, can you lower it to 1.5? if it does not cause any issue of course.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah, now that I think about it just the page being larger than the window should be good. I don't remember why I multiplied it by 2, but doesn't seem to cause any issues, will change in the next version.

Exception filter popup something like this?
Comment has been collapsed.
I've revamped it to make it look like the filters.
Comment has been collapsed.
the popup could be a bit wider when the width of the page is >1024px so that it has 3 columns of options
Comment has been collapsed.
I think it's unnecessary, it's already all visible without having to scroll. And it already has 3 columns.
Comment has been collapsed.
it only has 3 columns side by side to me if i lower the page zoom to 80%, i see two ways to 'fix' it making it wider or shortening the input fields
my screen resolution is 1366x768 the browser's content area is +/- 1366x648
Comment has been collapsed.
Did you test without the theme? Input fields are already short.
Comment has been collapsed.
Curious, how did you do that when the exception popup doesn't have a unique class?
Comment has been collapsed.
I tried to be specific as possible for the selectors, but yeah without classes there always would be a chance of it being applied where it should not.
Example: used .popup_description.esgst-popup-description > input[type="text"]:first-child + .esgst-popup-scrollable > div:nth-child(-n+7)

I noticed in updates new features that there was Dropbox support and i thought it was for exporting data but it seems to export to my browsers download folder. What kind of Dropbox support is here then? :]

how do i get the game category icons to function? is that a minimal view only thing?
can the icons be enabled for non-simplified also? or is that too much to be displayed?

Sure, I'll find a way to separate the simplified version and add it for every category instead.

Giveaway filters are filtering EVERYTHING regardless the setting on group pages after page 1.
Comment has been collapsed.
Working fine for me, are there errors in the console? Are you sure you're not affected by the exceptions change?
Comment has been collapsed.
No errors in the console. I don't use exceptions, actually i'm only filtering entered GAs and on page 1 it does what it's supposed to do. Disabling every filter as a test doesn't do the trick either, still everything is filtered.
Comment has been collapsed.
And it happens only on group pages? Group giveaway pages or group pages i.e. https://www.steamgifts.com/group/SJ7Bu/steamgifts?
Comment has been collapsed.
Looks like the problem is it's filtering all ended giveaways, I'll look into it.
Comment has been collapsed.
You could be right, in another group without any active giveaways since months even the first page is completely filtered.
Comment has been collapsed.
just realized that "owned" is actually somehow overriding steamgifts vanilla settings and displaying anyways. (steamgifts says to hide them, but your filter is still making them show)
i do have to run around and change each default page type to genuinely hide "owned" content. idk if that override is deliberate &/or known or not.
edit: to clarify, i only mean to hide owned on the main 5 page types (main, recommended, group, wishlist, & new. not the individual groups pages, i'm fine seeing owned there)
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't see how that would be possible. I thought SG didn't even add the owned giveaways to the page when you load it, but do they actually get added and stay hidden?
Comment has been collapsed.
ahh.. the game in question doesn't have a store page, so the api just isn't catching it. Temper Tantrum
sorry.. that's normal behavior afterall.
Comment has been collapsed.
hmmm.. exceptions trump the filter, so it's not possible for me to hide a group exceptioned owned title.
owned filter settings should trump exceptions tbh. or an exception to the exceptions needs to be added really. one or the other imo.
Comment has been collapsed.
Why don't you simply hide the game if you don't want to see it anymore? Or do you not have SGs hidden game filter active?
Comment has been collapsed.
hidden filter setting won't matter either since i have the exception to show it to me via group anyways. exception > filter except when hidden/owned is the way it should be, but exceptions currently trump all.
edit: ohh... i gotcha.. the steamgifts native hidden.. my bad. yeah that worked. but imo the hidden/owned should still trump the exceptions.
Comment has been collapsed.
If you use the standard SG filters it doesn't matter what exception you set, they never are displayed, because they are not even loaded by the site. If for some reasons you don't want to use them, then you are right and you won't be able to hide them atm.
Yeah those i meant :)
Comment has been collapsed.
yeah, i do use the steamgifts filters as well, and that works fine really as well. but i'd prefer to not have to manually hide all owned games that don't quite register properly since esgst can filter them properly anyways like it used to. thank you though, that solved the immediate visible game for now anyways. =)
Comment has been collapsed.
Exceptions should be applied only to basic filters, like it used to, I'll change that later.

That happens when the script was unable to retrieve the game data from the Store. I didn't make it 0 because that could give the assumption that the game is a no CV game, so -1 indicates better that there isn't available price information. You can try deleting esgst_gcCache from your storage to reset the data or wait 1 week until the cache is reset automatically.

The script cannot correct it, but the database can, I already corrected it. It happens because of users that are using "SGFrog" or whatever that script is called.

I use Windows 10. And useSlimjet Browser 10 (based on Chromium 50).
It's not a good idea to upgrade just for upgrade because new version with cut out functional was released. Chromium 60 didn't have any new good features for me. Also I'm against greedy developers who cut out Windows XP support just because Microsoft need to sell new OS.
Comment has been collapsed.
Well slimjet also has been updated, it's on version 15 if i'm not wrong.
What functions beyond plugins do not work in the latest version?(just curious)
Most devs are cutting or have cut XP support because it's not worth their time(lower userbase, dos not have new APIs or newer tech that has only been implemented on the newer OSs and that they wanna leverage), they don't care at all if Microsoft wants to sell a new OS or not
Hope you have a very good av+firewall or are VERY careful when browsing the web, a browser this outdated is a liability.
just my 2c
Comment has been collapsed.
Using compatible software is mostly my protest against removing WinXP support by some developers.
Main notebook is under Win 10, but also I have old computer with XP, and I like a lot this OS.
"New APIs or newer tech" is just pretext. When developer want to do something - there are no obstructions.
In new Chromium-baser browsers:
= Interface is worse (ugly large tabs for example, smaller icons).
= DirectDraw cutted off - fonts are more worse
= NPAPI disabled
Browser isn't outdated. Some years will pass when new web-technologies will be implemented on many sites. Now it supports about all sites well enough.

Enhanced SteamGifts & SteamTrades (ESGST)
An extension / userscript that adds some cool features to SteamGifts and SteamTrades.
If you find any bugs or have any feature requests, please file an issue here.
Compatibility
Tested and confirmed as working:
Not tested but should be working:
Not supported:
Installation
There are two different ways to use ESGST: extension or userscript. You can choose which one you want to use, but the extension is a lot faster and has a better peformance than the userscript, so I recommend it, although there is no major difference between them, except for a few options that are only available in the extension because of limitations in the userscript.
Option 1 - Extension
It should be possible to install the extension in any Chromium-based browser from the Chrome store (such as Opera, Vivaldi, etc...), any Firefox-based browser from the Firefox store (such as Waterfox, etc...), and any browser that uses the Phoebus system from the Pale Moon store (such as Basilik, etc...).
You can also use the extension on Android through Firefox for Android, but some features might not work or not be optimized enough for mobile.
Option 2 - Userscript
To install the userscript, you must install Violentmonkey, Tampermonkey, Greasemonkey or some other userscript manager first. Then click here and you should be prompted to install it. I recommend Violentmonkey or Tampermonkey, because the userscript uses the GM_addValueChangeListener API to communicate changes in the storage between tabs, and that API is not available on Greasemonkey, so a polyfill is used for Greasemonkey, which is not very effective and can affect the performance.
You can also use the userscript on Android through Firefox with Violentmonkey or USI, but some features might not work or not be optimized enough for mobile.
Beta Versions
The latest beta version for both the extension and the userscript is always available in the latest pre-release in the releases page.
