userscripts: download buttons, saved filters, tumblr savior

Here are a couple scripts to tweak the works index pages. They run on Greasemonkey in Fx or Tampermonkey in Chrome.

Please let me know if you got questions, or if I made any mistakes!

The 'Global' one totally shows up now! \\\o///

And sometimes I can get it to work! Which means I have EVEN MORE QUESTIONS.

To activate it, you type in something, like... -humor, save it, and then click 'sort and filter'?

And this isn't like tumblr savior in how it just runs all the time, I have to do a 'sort and filter' to activate it?(The charming blue highlighted 'Your filter was: [-humor].' does not always appear. I am trying to figure out whyyyy.)

Should I also have a 'Fandom:' box? I have only the 'Global:' box.

Oooh, and what happens if I fiddle with 'User matches'/'User includes'/'User excludes' in the settings at Tampermonkey?

Thank you for all these clarifications, they are MOST useful. <33333



(oh man making it more tumblr savior-esque would be a TALL ORDER.)

I've just DL'd the new ao3-saved-filters and it is doing it's pre-loading thing! I like it lots.

I don't think tumblr savior *is* being developed as a userscript anymore? I have it as a chrome extension (along with missing-e because together they are the PB and J of my tumblr bread if that metaphor makes any sense)

But it looks like in the four days since I last checked up on this thread (>.>) you have played around with savior-esque-ing up your code. Cool!

I've tried out the ao3-savior script (chrome and tampermonkey again) and I have the problem I had back with the original script - there isn't a 'saved filters' menu.

my new year resolution was to start DLing ebooks so fics could never be lost to me again and your dl script is being VERY HELPFUL in getting all my already-read favs onto my hard-drive. So TY for this one too now! *g*

Years after you posted this but... I restarted FF after installing greasemonkey and installed the script. Went to a *works* page and no joy. I tried toggling it on and off multiple times, re installing it, restarting firefox, then restarting my computer. All no no avail. Any advice? Trying to use the -tag one. I just never want to see an A/B/O or MPreg again....

Steps taken:

Install greasemonkey (I uninstalled it after it the script didn't appear to work the first time and all the associated scripts)

restart FF

Instal AO3 Save Filters

Disable PeerBlock/Guardian thingey (just in case)

Go to http://archiveofourown.org/tags/Derek%20Hale*s*Stiles%20Stilinski/works

I don't see the dialogue box that appears in the screen shot, do I need to edit the script first for it to appear?

*shrug* Don't know why it is happening but I did do a reset of FF and it still does not work. I'm not willing to do a complete fresh instal so who knows. Also, the other AO3 download button script never worked. Anyways, thanks for trying.
