Tool XLibrary - Advanced Game Library Manager for F95Zone

[BlackPhoenix966]

Good point, I will include it in the next release

I installed version v1.14.0 yesterday, but the extension remains at version 1.10.1. Yesterday I noticed the web extension's floating window could be moved and minimised. Why, upon reopening today, has this minor feature disappeared and reverted to a fixed mode? Does the extension version need to match the software version?

I have an idea for a cool function.

My collection is huge. Luckily however I've kept a list of all my games so I can copy their names easily to the search bar.
But copying all of them one by one to the search is super tedious. My solution would be to have a bulk search option where you can type or paste multiple queued search queries separated by line breaks and then just go through them individually by clicking a button.

Now I don't know how to actually implement it in terms of code, but aren't us ideas guys still helpful?

Sounds good, but this will be very, very slow because we use services like f95/dlsite directly, and a single search for one title can take 1-2 seconds, and they cannot be done in parallel. Accordingly, searching for 50 games will take around 2 minutes or so

Do you use Chrome? You need to update the extension in the settings by clicking "Reload" on it.

1. Open Extensions Page: Type chrome://extensions into your Chrome address bar and press Enter.
2. Enable Developer Mode: In the top-right corner of the page, toggle Developer mode to the "On" position.
3. Click Reload: Press the small circular arrow (Reload icon) on your extension's card to instantly apply your code changes.

You can also try fully closing and reopening the application before repeating the update process

It would still be so much faster than doing it manually, not to mention effort. Not making the queries in a single parallel bulk would be a good thing in terms of accidentally overloading the site with a one man DDOS.

Got it, I’ll add this to the roadmap and figure out the best way to implement it

I am Edge browser. Upon clicking reload, it continuously flashes “Inactive”. Clicking the extension details displays version 1.12.3, yet when I directly click the extension window, it shows 1.10.1.

Hi, this is an excellent and very useful tool. I have a question: can I manually add images or screenshots to the game library?

I hope this is clear; I'm using Google Translate.

Try to remove the extension and reinstall it from scratch. It's okay that it shows 1.10.1 (it hasn't been updated, I forgot about it)

Thank you! Yes, you can, but only by pasting links to these images in manual editing/adding game. Direct image uploads are not supported due to syncing with Google Drive, as this would heavily impact the app's performance and your storage

Hi, My firefox extension says unverified, your old google drive link to download signed version that you gave to someone else no longer works. Can you help? File name:- "xlibrary-1.14.0.xpi"
