I do my settings,
enter my name
favorites on
load
i get my number of images to load
and then most aren't even my images
Thank you for describing your steps! In this case, it really looks like the username you entered doesn't exist.
It will be the same if you go to e6 and type "favoritedby:username" in the searchbar. If this does not give you your favorites, neither will the program.
For example, "lopunny" is a username that exists and has favorites. Going to e6 and entering "favoritedby:lopunny" will give you the expected results, and same in the program if you type the username "lopunny" in e621 favorites.
I am working on a way to somehow tell if a username exists, I would suggest waiting for the new version that will hopefully be published in a few hours from now!
I have no idea why your username doesn't work.
Please check you are able to get the expected results by going on the e621 website and typing "favoritedby:yourusername".
The other usernames test show that the feature seems to work for other users, and it is weird that it wouldn't work with yours.
Just a guess, but if you changed your username, maybe you need to enter the username you first used when signing up. It is up to their implementation at this point.
