I prefer to send them to archive, that way the error disappear and i know exactly what games are in there as the name is greyed out. At the same time I can always remove it from there and recheck it to see if it was fixed (if it was a api cache issue) or not and if in a few days i see the thread still gone, i can convert it or remove it.

I get your point, was just an idea on my part, I think both options have some pros and cons

Can't agree more about this, and sorry, didn't want you to think i belittle your suggestion. Sorry for that.

Hi, I was wondering how the tool was able to quickly search for threads without me being logged in, and found out about the independent caching API you run. Can we use such API for our own (small) projects? As long as the usage is within reason, of course.

That section from the OP you quoted is outdated, the correct version is on github, I'm yet to update the op here after 11.0. But yeah now it's a cache api I run specifically for this tool. I tried to design it in a way that can't really be abused that much, and it's cached as much as possible on top with Cloudflare, so you should be good to use it if it's helpful for whatever you're working on
did you have any use in mind already?

Putting them in a dedicated tab, even though a good suggestion, won't prevent the error, unless you combine it with e.g. the below suggestion from KaosKally
That's actually even better than making them custom games.
More easily undone.

That's what I was thinking, I mean if i make it custom, I don't even know if i can convert it back to F95 again, in case it is back. Where with archive, is 2 clicks swap.

Yes, you can convert it back just as easily, but archiving is much easier, to make it a custom game you need to do it one by one in the More Info popup, and that button changes to Convert to F95zone game once made custom. But (un)archiving, now that's way faster... multi select, right-click. click and done. I feel dumb to not have thought of that.

Yeah, I actually saw the cache API mention in the github readme, and then went on F95 to ask you just in case.
I was planning to use it for some light statistics gathering of game thread info, nothing that requires being very up-to-date, so I thought your API would be pretty good for my use case. It's going to be a personal project for now, but I might post the findings at some point if they're interestingI tried to design it in a way that can't really be abused that much, and it's cached as much as possible on top with Cloudflare, so you should be good to use it if it's helpful for whatever you're working on

It is still using F95 account to search for games (I think) and to check alert & message counts.
EDIT: You can disable the alert & message checks under Refresh:

Checking notifications is disabled by default now for new users, but previous users will have it enabled, and it obviously requires and account
Check what WhiteVanDaycare said

OK, I have to ask a silly question. I accidentally switched to BG mode 'on purpose' Edit: I was curious about something. Now need to know: How do I Switch OFF BG mode? It's stuck. Do I need to uninstall? v11.0.1

if i know right, it should be that option marked there. Your FS checker is in the notification bar, it might be hidden in the up arrow, the Show hidden icons.

It's in the system tray. Bottom right of taskbar. Windows hides new icons by default, so you need to click the little arrow to show all icons (then you can move the f95checker one to the main taskbar tray area so it's always visible). You can click it to open the gui, or right click to do some other things while in background mode

I have the icon dragged out.
Switch to BG changes to switch to GUI, and vice versa. but system tray icon always remains. how to get rid of it?

You don't, it's always been there (atleast for like the last 2 years or something). Put it into the overflow menu if you don't want to see it. But yeah always been there, even before you accidentally switched to background mode.

Not really an F95Checker question, more of a Windows question - but here goes (assuming Win11):
- Right click on the task bar and select 'Taskbar settings'
- Expand 'Other system tray icons'
- Find F95Checker.exe in the list and turn it off, it will now be in the hidden icons that only come up when expanded
