"No matter how much I struggled, it turns out a website has its limits. That is why... I WROTE A USERSCRIPT, JOEJOE!"

[openuserjs.org] Userscript Download | [github.com] User Manual | Latest Release: v2.1.3 on 25 December 2020 UTC

Please read the [github.com] user manual for more detailed information on setup instructions, feature descriptions and the automated gallery downloads feature. This post only has the features and preface sections from the manual. In case you do not know how userscripts work, you need to firstly add a browser extension like [www.tampermonkey.net] Tampermonkey, and then add the scripts to run them.

Features

This is just short list to quickly show its features before even the preface below. A longer list with explanations is provided in the [github.com] wiki. You can selectively enable any of the features below, except for the GUI control panel, which is always on.

Site-wide features:

- Scientific dark theme
- Scientific light theme
- Design fixes (enabled by default)
- Subjective fixes (enabled by default)
- Improved navigation bar (enabled by default)

Preface

1) First of all, please ask me if you need help, but be sure to read the [github.com] user manual first and also the [github.com] wiki if needed. To keep this manual/readme easy to read, a lot of information is placed in the [github.com] wiki. Most users who have problems with the automated gallery downloads feature simply did not complete the setup according to the instructions.

2) This is the public version of a private script I wrote for myself over the years. I did a lot of extra work and made this public version just to help others improve their experience on EH. I would be happy if you find my script useful, but otherwise I have nothing to gain from it.

3) Since this is just a private script I wrote for myself, it naturally does not collect any information from the user and does not do any fishy stuff. The code is self-contained, fully transparent, very readable and well documented, so it should be easy to inspect if you would like to have a look.

4) I am purely self-taught, so I am not a real programmer and may have limited ability to debug telepathically and fulfil feature requests. Real life constraints also make it difficult for me to work on this script. However, I am quite confident in its quality and readability, since I did spend several years and hundreds of hours on it.

5) Although I have been using this script for years, it is too big (5,000+ lines of code) for me to test all usage scenarios on all platforms, browsers, userscript engines and EH pages. I know there are a few errors that the script cannot handle, because I cannot even trigger and see them in the first place. Therefore, there might be bugs and you can always submit a report to me to solve any problem you find.

I've been seeding not personalized torrent files but if i add personalized torrent file and it merges together, do i get tracked for seeding?

Holy shit you actually made it you mad lad. I salute you!

This script does make me feel like a madlad when I look back; I did not know JavaScript, HTML and CSS at all when I first started a few years ago, and now I have written this huge script...

I've been seeding not personalized torrent files but if i add personalized torrent file and it merges together, do i get tracked for seeding?

This question relates to EHTracker and torrenting in general, and I do not know these well enough to answer it. You will need someone else like blue penguin or even Tenboro himself to provide a definite answer.

What I know is that loading a personalised torrent on top of an already loaded redistributable torrent will add the personalised tracker that contains your UID and your key, so the torrent in your client will have the redistributable tracker first and then the personalised tracker.

However, when I tested this arrangement just now, the newly added personalised tracker just says "not contacted yet" while the existing redistributable tracker is working, so they might be mutually exclusive and I cannot say if your stats will be recorded this way. Furthermore, even if they can both work, perhaps the traffic will be split and only a proportion of your seeding amount will be recorded.

In any case, if you are not aware already, the torrent stats in "my home" do not affect anything on EH besides the love you will get from us, so I think you will not have a major problem.

I've tested most of the features now and got it pretty much set up how I like it, only problem I'm having is the popup with the gallery information is very hard to read on most non colour manga/doujinshi, see screenshot below:

As a temporary fix, I've added:

CODE

#topControlGroup > h1, #i2, #i4, #i5, #i6, #i7
{
    background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
}

but it's a very ugly fix, as the divs overlap each other. I messed around with text shadow as well, though without much success.

I can live with it, but thought I'd bring it to your attention in case you've got an idea for a more elegant solution.

Edit: Above "fix" almost certainly won't work on IE.

A valid request. The fit-to-screen feature for the basic viewer was a by-product I made out of interest and has been neglected for too long since I always use the MPV. I have added semi-transparent shading strips behind the texts to make them easier to read, and you will get them at the next update.

Edit: Above "fix" almost certainly won't work on IE.

The EH gallery system officially does not support IE and other older browsers at least after the gallery list revamp, so I do not consider compatibility with IE at all.

On unrelated notes:

- The clickable external URLs feature can fulfil one of Joe's gallery ideas: "add 'ehwiki.org' as an auto-linkified domain for gallery comments/description."

- EH will reach 5 million registered members in two or three days. Right now we have 4,999,633 members.

Neat script. Yeah, we talked about it before, but it is still neat. And up it goes (pined).

but I am going to take a break from EH after that.

That's sad. But absolutely do it, having a break from time to time prevents one from turning into a monster. (figuratively speaking that's very often the case with any activity).

From what I've tested so far with Violentmonkey in Firefox, some of the features work, but I can't see the 'Configure Mayriad's Script' button (nor with Greasemonkey, but I know that's unsupported), even when using default Firefox profile and no other extensions/scripts. Tampermonkey sketches me out, so I'll be testing via the in-script settings to see what works and what doesn't. For all I know, the button could be the only thing broken.

Thanks!

Tampermonkey sketches me out, so I'll be testing via the in-script settings to see what works and what doesn't. For all I know, the button could be the only thing broken.

I had a look and it seems the script will stop working on Violentmonkey because the GM API v3 used by Violentmonkey accepts XHR error handlers in a different place. Some features worked for you because they happened before the problematic part in the code; the features after this part did not because the script stopped running after that part. This is why the "configure master script" button did not show up, because it is late in the load order.

I think I noticed this problem in the past but forgot to fix it. Violentmonkey has one or two problems that really annoyed me, so I have not tested the script on it recently. For example, if I remove a script and install it again, which happens often during testing, Violentmonkey will insist that there is a script name or namespace conflict even though there is no script installed. Then I would have to reinstall Violentmonkey itself to fix this.

Anyway, this is a small problem and it has been fixed, so the script should run on Violentmonkey after the next update. Violentmonkey is still largely untested, so there might be bugs still. If there is no more stuff to fix for now, I will probably push the next update tomorrow.

but I am going to take a break from EH after that

Forgive me, I (admittedly rudely) only skimmed the feature list and missed this part, that's sad to hear. Hopefully you have a good break.

I have added semi-transparent shading strips behind the texts to make them easier to read, and you will get them at the next update.

You work fast! Looking forward to it.

The EH gallery system officially does not support IE and other older browsers at least after the gallery list revamp, so I do not consider compatibility with IE at all.

Adding that disclaimers with most css features I make is a bad habit of mine, even if it's largely pointless as I doubt many people are still using IE.

- EH will reach 5 million registered members in two or three days. Right now we have 4,999,633 members.

I wonder how many of those are actually active users lol.

Patch update: Mayriad's EH Master Script v2.0.1

## Changelog

- Added alternative placement for XHR error handlers to support the GM API v3 used by Violentmonkey. This is why the last version of this script did not really work on Violentmonkey.

- Added a helper function that renames object properties after a script update without affecting their values.

- Fixed one typo in loadData() which can mess up user settings in a script update. Fortunately, no one could have been affected by this typo since it is fixed in the first public update ever.

- Modified fitViewerToScreen() to add semi-transparent shading strips behind the texts to make them easier to read in this mode.

- Renamed the gallery download shortcuts feature to "automated gallery downloads", which better reflects what it does after the overhaul based on GM.download().

- Cleaned up some code since Violentmonkey now also supports GM.* aliases that are compatible with GM API v4.

- Applied trivial wording, line wrap, and variable name changes.

- Modified fitViewerToScreen() to add semi-transparent shading strips behind the texts to make them easier to read in this mode.

This looks so much better now, you're a legend

Seems to be working excellently in Violentmonkey now, thanks!

Tbh, I'm having trouble spotting differences with the 'fix website design problems' and 'apply subjective fixes' options. Where should I be looking?

Tbh, I'm trouble spotting differences with the 'fix website design problems' and 'apply subjective fixes' options. Where should I be looking?

You should be looking at my documentation in the code if you want to know the differences these features make. They fix quite a number of problems throughout the gallery system, and most of these problems are either not very noticeable or occur rarely. The functions for these features are called applyDesignFixes() and applySubjectiveFixes() in the code, and I think I have documented my code more than well enough for you to know everything they do. I think Tenboro should read applyDesignFixes(), too.

I am quoting some of my comments from applyDesignFixes() to give you an idea in case you do not want to read the code:

CODE

      // Fix the colour used for the titles of visited galleries, because the default colour is not distinct enough. The
      // new colour in each theme is calculated by blending the background colour of div.ido and the colour of unvisited
      // titles in the ratio of 3:1.
...
      // Fix the "no unfiltered results in this page range" message from second-stage filters. It has two problems:
      // 1. The span of this message's row in minimal(+) display modes is one column short.
      // 2. The table header row exists in all display modes other than extended, which is inconsistent, and it should
      //    not exist in the thumbnail gallery list display mode, which does not use a details table.
...
        // Change the "your filters excluded * galleries from this page" part to say "page range" when the gallery list
        // is showing filtered results from multiple pages at once.
...
        // Change the "showing * galleries" part to say "showing * out of * galleries", where the first number is the
        // actual number of galleries in the current list and the second is the total number of galleries found in a
        // search before deductions from the standard second-stage filters, the additional filters from this script, and
        // indexing delay. Since this feature function runs after applyAdditionalFilters(), the effects of additional
        // filters will be included and the correct count will be shown. However, the effect of indexing delay cannot be
        // accounted for, which probably mainly affects updated galleries.
...
      // Fix the vertical position of ponies so that they align with the border of gallery lists.
...
      // Fix the missing border at the top-right corner of each graph [on the stats page].
...
      // Recreate the navigation bar using the new style on [the upload management page and repo.e-hentai.org], which
      // still use the old navigation bar. They use the old 0338 style sheet, so the new styles from 0347 are added to
      // support the recreated bar. Swapping the style sheet makes little difference, so it is not worth a total reflow.
...
          // Refit the height of the "choose files" button in gallery upload pages, because the bottom border was too
          // low and inconsistent with other buttons of the same type, like the file search button.
...

Yes, I even fixed the ponies.

Sorry about this, but came across a div that didn't have it's colour changed on the scientific dark theme, on the bounties page:


As a temporary fix, I've added div#x
{background:#4f535b;border: 1px solid #8d8d8d}

Which changes it to this:


Edit: just went through every single page accessible through the galleries that I could think of, and that's the only problematic one I could find.

Thank you for spotting. It looks like another element whose style is hidden in document.head. It will be fixed at the next update.

Ah, I should've known to look in the code since you did say it is well documented. Now that I've used it some more, I'm already benefiting from a couple of the changes to things that always slightly bothered me before, like the more faded 'visited galleries' titles. Really great, expansive script you've made here.

There's a bad bug that prevents the page download from working. If one gallery's torrent is unavailable then any download after that gallery stops.

Example? The page download should continue after the notification popup goes away.

Edit: this is normal behaviour because unknown errors would stop the page download mode. However, a few other immaterial bugs have been identified after a few lengthy PMs and the next update that was put on hold will be released now.
