MarkoH01: Is there a way to fix the issue shown in the attachment? I am unable to reach the lower pop up menu items.

HypersomniacLive: That may well have to do with the latest BE version which disabled the collapsible footer; I didn't update to that version exactly because of this, and don't have the issue (the drop down menu opens over the footer).
Thank you. I will try to get an earlier version of BE then.

I'm not entirely sure that the issue is caused by BE, but testing the previous version can't hurt. You can get earlier versions of BE here.

But before you do that - I went back and read the v.2.25.2 changelog that Barefoot_Monkey had posted, and there's this:
- New bugfix: option to keep the page footer at the bottom of the page, even if the page is smaller than the browser.
Perhaps that has something to do with the issue?

Is there any way you could add an option to revert the download page to how it used to be? Now it shows a huge blue button that says "DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL NOW" and around the button, it says, "INSTALL GAME WITH GOG GALAXY. GOG Galaxy keeps your games up to date, provides all multiplayer features, enables cloud saves, makes it easy to install games and more. GOG Galaxy requires Windows 7 or newer. Download size 1MB (additional space required for GOG Galaxy installation and [enter game name here])." Below this, it says "DOWNLOAD OFFLINE BACKUP GAME INSTALLERS", and you have to click a down arrow to even get to the offline installer links.

I'd love it if there were an option to choose to leave it the way it is or remove the entire "INSTALL GAME WITH GOG GALAXY" section. There's a good reason why I hid all the links and banners for Galaxy: I'm not interested in using it. I know you decided to stop updating the script, but it sounds like you may be rethinking that, and if you don't want to add this option, maybe there's someone else around here who does? Thanks for all you've done, and continue to do. I don't even want to think about what this place would look like without AF and BE.

It's already done in last version (Version 1.8.5 - released on 10-06-2018) , just go to the library options and check the "Hides the links to the web downloader" checkbox. No more Galaxy section.

adaliabooks: Right, it's been a while since I've done this so forgive me if I've broken anything...

A Wild Update Appeared!

;)

I've incorporated MarkoH01's excellent work (not the correct spelling of his username), fixed the option to disable sending chat messages when pressing Enter (which I'd done before dropping off work on the script last year but never got around to pushing it as the chat still needed loads of work, and still does) and added an option to hide the web installers.

Have only barely tested it, but there's nothing to major so hopefully there shouldn't be any issues.

Enjoy! :)
It works with a small issue, if hide web installers is selected when you go to games details the galaxy section is hidden as intended, but if you then click on the Downloader Links checbox-button the galaxy section reappears.

I've already made a fix by copying two lines from the function changeDownloadLinks() to the end of function compileNewDownloadLinks() after the end of the last if.

The two lines are:

[i]$('.af-galaxy-web-installers').toggle(!settings.get('library-hide-web-downloader'));
$('.af-offline-installers').toggleClass("af-offline-installers-no-margin", settings.get('library-hide-web-downloader'));
[/i]

Maybe you can include it in next version or release a hotfix version.

Oh, I was wondering what everyone meant by the "web downloader". I'd call that the "Galaxy installer". Thanks for the help.

Nice catch. I missed that bit, I'll add your fix and do a quick update at some point.

Thanks.

You are a genius :) Unchecking the page footer bugfix option in BE fixed the issue for me.

MarkoH01: Is there a way to fix the issue shown in the attachment? I am unable to reach the lower pop up menu items.

adaliabooks: Yeah, I noticed that myself on something. It'll be to do with footers position some how. If I get time I'll look at it.
No need anymore as you can see: HypersomniacLive already figured it out :)

avatar
adaliabooks: Don't worry, I made a start on it this morning. A fix shouldn't be too complicated. I'll replace the current Classic Installer option with one to hide the web installers so people have the choice.
Thanks for the offer but I've made a start already, and I've already incorporated the bits you did. I've been struggling a bit to find a game to play in my down time so might as well spend the time doing something productive.

Still quite busy at the moment so no promises when it will be done but hopefully shouldn't be too long.

HypersomniacLive figured out a way that worked for me.

Just read this post.

Just a confirmation. I had not updated BE for some time and didn't had this problem. Updated to 2.25.2.1 and sure enough the problem appeared. Went back to 2.5.1.2 no problem with it.

So yes, it is related to version 2.5.2 of Barefoot Essentials

1) It was not excellent - muddled through stuff I barely understood and got lucky - that's all :)
2) You spelled my username completely correct so I am wondering if this was meant as a joke since it is often spelled wrong ;)

Sounds awesome. Thank you for the great work and thank you that you decicded to do this after this latest big update of the website GOG did. Nobody forced you but I am sure everybody loves you for it - I know I do :)

It did cross my mind that BE played around with the footers and might have something to do with it but I hadn't looked into it yet.

Nice job Hyper :)

That should have said 'note' not Not... clearly spelling is not my strong point XD

And honestly, if you could make sense of the script enough to make changes that's excellent work. It takes me ten minutes some times just to remember why I did a thing the way I did it or what a function does...

Maybe I should have added "this time"? :)

The bug is back. Everything was working fine up until now. I just checked it less than a half hour ago and it was working, but now it takes about 10 seconds to refresh, and when it does, it leaves my library's sort order as GOG instead of last updated.

Now it's taking the normal short time to refresh, but it's still sorting in GOG's order instead of last updated.
