I mean, it's good but it still can't exclude input methods. Is there a way to make that work
Viewing post in itch browse tag exclude comments
As far as I know the feature only works for things that can be entered in the filter box for tags. This means tags and genres. I only made a button to avoid entering the url every time.
If you have need for a special search, try out the third tool. It is far superior to mere tag filtering.
It has two lists and you can add items by pressing 1 or 2. And this works also if you hold the key and the item disappears and the next item takes it's place. Adds like 30 items per second. So just scroll down a few pages with auto-loading next page mode and go up again and hold the key to populate an ignore list for anything you can browse. Input methods, tags and what else. After that your normal search will have those items excluded.
Input methods are even less accurate than tags, I guess. So you might find, that simply marking games you already have checked out, to be a more convenient method.
It is the tampermonkey script on the bottom of the page. Yeah, I should rework the page sometime.
You need a browser extension that can run tampermonkey scripts and import the script there. Then you configure the script to your liking.
The defaults are keys 1-0 and you need to press key 1-4 while above a game thumbnail in browse or search view. This adds/removes the item/developer to list 1 or to list 2 respectivly. The "on" state for both lists is to hide the item. And the "off" state, which is also used in your library, puts a colored outline around the item. 5 toggles between on and off. If you want to combine lists or do one time searches, you can export lists, clear the lists, do the special stuff, clear again, and re-import the old lists.
The basic use case would be to put all your library/known games on one list and all your ignore stuff on the other list.
// configuration start const l1on = '{display:none}'; const l2on = '{display:none}'; const l1off = '{outline:auto blanchedalmond}'; const l2off = '{outline:auto purple}'; const key1 = '1'; const key2 = '2'; const dev1 = '3'; const dev2 = '4'; const togglek = '5'; const export_l1 = '6'; const export_l2 = '7'; const import_l1 = '8'; const import_l2 = '9'; const deleteallkey = '0'; // configuration end
Tampermonkey? Just enter that word in your extension repository. If you can run my homebrew extension, I am assuming you use Chrome. So that would be https://chromewebstore.google.com/search/Tampermonkey
It lets you use user scripts that do some stuff an extension would do and provides some mechanisms to use capabilities only extensions can use. Like storage. The advantage is, that the same script will run on Firefox and Chrome and others. It should also work in other user script addons, like Greasemonkey.
It is rather popular, on Chrome it has over 10 million users.
