yyahoo: How about a filter for any thread that says "friend" or "witcher 3" in it? ;)
That would actually be reasonably easy...

Aha! Got you!

The problem is with visited threads. They are marked with a different class than unvisited threads, hence the search doesn't find them. D'oh!

Fix should be ready in a few minutes once I figure out what I need to do.

Edit: And updates live, come and get it. Thanks Hyper, mrkgnao

There's bound to be some kind of regex you could use to match for any number of the various letters in the word friend which would catch them all... :)

Works!!! Good show, adaliabooks!



P.S. Suggestions (nice to have):

1) add version number somewhere in the search form (below the "go" button?) so one knows which version one has installed

2) launch the search when one presses "Enter" in any of the search boxes (Search, First Page, End Page)

Great, glad that's sorted it, it's always something simple.. let me know if you have any more trouble with it.

1) is easy, I'll add it in when I get a chance tomorrow. 2) I'm not even sure where to start but I can probably find some samples online and figure it out, might get it done tomorrow too if I have time and it's not too complicated.

Just to let you know that GOG Search just updated itself automatically from 0.3.14 to 0.3.15 on my home browser without me doing anything. So auto-update seems to work fine.

Well... that was ridiculously easy. Done and done! :)

New version is available, any other suggestions you guys would like to see?

Lovely. Thanks.

So I was thinking of adding a function to filter for posts with replies to your posts, but there are a number of ways to do it:

1) Use the search box as a username and find replies to that username (which could be used to find replies to others posts too, but doesn't really act much different then the current username search)
2) Have a checkbox which finds replies to your posts exclusively (my problem with this is that it's counter-intuitive as it wouldn't perform the same function as the other check boxes)
3) Have a separate button (using the reply notification icon, and possibly a tooltip if that's possible) that just find replies to your posts. This is my preferred method, but I'm not sure if it's function wouldn't be obvious?

What do you guys think? Which would be the best way to do it?

(3) sounds good to me too. For tooltips I suggest looking into Opentip (https://github.com/enyo/opentip; for some reason http://www.opentip.org/ is inaccessible). I use it in MaGog and it's very powerful. Not sure whether it would work via Greasemonkey, but worth a try.

I'll work towards that then, and if it doesn't look or work right I can always change how the actual search works once I've implemented it.

I was hoping it might be possible to just have tool tips, but I wasn't sure if that's possible in basic HTML or CSS.
Not sure how using outside scripts works with userscripts but I'll certainly check that out if it's possible.

Tooltips are HTML. It's the "title" field of the object. I use these too for less obtrusive tooltips (e.g. the flags under regional pricing or under languages).
