userscripts: download buttons, saved filters, tumblr savior

[tuff_ghost]

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

Hi there; I recently installed this userscript because I wanted to have a way to exclude some pairings and freeform tags, but I'm not sure I know how to use it. So I start from the works page, search something - I see several filters are used in the example screenshot at the same time, both without any commas or other punctuation; two-word keywords in quotes. Clear so far. I click on the works button and clear the filters, ok.

Is there a way to go back and add a filter? Because it doesn't seem to be possible. Say I added several filters, and they didn't work out, giving me 0 results. If I hit a back button, the page just reloads and brings me back to my zero results. I have to clear the filters and start over. Yes?

With ao3 savior, can I e.g. blacklist relationships, not just tags and authors? And how exactly do I edit it, just add my keywords in the square brackets in the CONFIG section? It does not seem to be working for me. Or maybe it is, but I don't know what it's supposed to look, so I can't recognize it.

(Sorry if I'm rambling and if I've missed something obvious; I find it easier to figure something out if I go through it out loud as if I'm asking someone questions.)

The filter just builds a search for you, and like any search if it doesn't return what you want, you should adjust it - whether that means clearing it altogether and starting over, or adding/removing some terms. So, I'm not sure how to answer your question re: the saved filters script. You "have to" start over only if your search contains 0 of the terms you want. Otherwise, keep the terms you want and remove the others. Does that make sense against what you saw, or am I missing something?

Yes you can blacklist relationships - put them in the tags array. For example, I'm browsing works in the Pacific Rim fandom and I don't want to see any Mako/Raleigh fics. I added 'Raleigh Becket/Mako Mori' to the tags array (use the exact ao3 canonical tag) so that the whole line looks like:

tags: ['dobby', 'jar jar binks', 'Raleigh Becket/Mako Mori'],

then I save the script, refresh the page, and see "This work is hidden" 3 blurbs down. Unhiding it reveals a Mako/Raleigh fic.
