I don't know if this was suggested before, or if it is even possible, but can you have a toggle to show/hide own'd games in the 'browse games' section?
If you are able to do that, you can but the checkbox/toggle thing, next to the dropdown box for sort order.

It seems that I can't, because if I hide games or do anything that shortens the list then it stops the "endless scrolling" function of the page from working. Maybe it would be best to send a feature request to support asking them to add a "Hide owned games" checkbox to the catalogue.

Even if you just add a style that says ".own {display: none}"? (with an option wether or not to load it)

EDIT: Right, with Stylish it works, mostly. Didn't want to load with Firebug visible, but ran fine when closing it (and continued after opening again).

Yup, that breaks it. My guess is that loading of the next page of games is triggered when the browser scrolls to a position determined at the time the last game from the previous page is added to the DOM.
I wonder... maybe Stylish runs before the offending piece of script. And maybe my script would too. I've been trying manually editing the stylesheet with the built-in debugging tools, but the fact that that doesn't won't doesn't necessarily mean it won't work from in BE. I'll try again quick.

I'm so glad you checked with Stylish otherwise I would have given up. It's just a matter of the rule being added to the stylesheet soon enough, so despite my own test failing it works perfectly if add the rule "#catalogueResultsContainer>.game_row.own {display: none;}" in a user script. I'll just do some finishing touches and then publish the update.

:(

Done, but it turns out that works properly only after refreshing the page. So if I visit the catalogue it doesn't work, then after I refresh it does. So I'm afraid it's not ready to publish yet.

Hmmm, got a new computer and was sure that BFE would work on a clean installation but I'm having exactly the same problem* with the userscript version installed in Tamper Monkey.

I've discovered that the (out of date) Chome app store version works though. Don't know whether it's down to the older version lacking a bug present in the new version or just the differing installation method.

*the problem being that "submit quick post" doesn't refresh the page or otherwise show any sign that it's worked. Usually it has worked, but occasionally I'll manually refresh to find that it's not posted.

Thanks for letting me know. I'll try to reproduce this and see what I can do.

Could an option be added to export ALL games (including hidden ones) to the GOG wiki? At the moment I am hiding games to keep track of which games I have already downloaded the latest game/extras. This means that my latest upload to the wiki is missing 152 games (because they were "hidden" on GOG)

Being able to override the "hidden" check for upload to the wiki would be helpful for me.

I can't sync to the gogwiki anymore. :(

Using Chrome Version 33.0.1750.117 m.

Thanks for letting me know. Are you using the native Chrome extension or the userscript version (via TamperMonkey)? I'm afraid the native one is a bit out of date at the moment - sorry about that. As luck would have it I'm preparing for a new release for both versions tonight.

Let me check... yup, that's entirely possible, and shouldn't take to long to add. Thanks for the suggestion.

The native extension. I only noticed a few days ago that it wasn't working - it's probably been a few weeks since I last synced successfully.

I've sent up an update to userscripts.org. Greasemonkey/Violent Monkey/Tampermonkey users should get an automatic update any moment. The Chrome version is also updated (Chrome Store won't serve the update immediately, but it is in the pipeline).


A new feature in this version is something I've been meaning to add for ages: it's a way for us to see when our fellow goglodytes level up! There is a new option in the settings where you can let the wiki share your birthday. If you enable this then when you sync the wiki gets your date of birth from your account and sends it to GOGWiki.

If you go to the new [url=http://www.gogwiki.com/wiki/Special:Birthdays]Birthdays special page[/url] on GOGWiki you will see a list of everyone who has a birthday yesterday/today/tomorrow. It's completely opt-in, so you shouldn't appear on this page unless you enable this feature in the settings.

The other change is that "Always display shelf/list game count" has been working well and so is no longer marked as "Experimental".

I ended up not including this in the update because I don't have it working perfectly yet and I really do need to go to sleep, but I'll try to have it fairly soon.

Looks like Google's now serving the latest version of the extension, so it should be working for you now.

Yep, it worked! I had to force the extension to update by ticking the developer mode box on the extensions screen, refreshed GOG and everything synched perfectly. Thanks! :)
