adaliabooks: I'll work towards that then, and if it doesn't look or work right I can always change how the actual search works once I've implemented it.

I was hoping it might be possible to just have tool tips, but I wasn't sure if that's possible in basic HTML or CSS.
Not sure how using outside scripts works with userscripts but I'll certainly check that out if it's possible.

mrkgnao: Tooltips are HTML. It's the "title" field of the object. I use these too for less obtrusive tooltips (e.g. the flags under regional pricing or under languages).
Yeah, that's what I was looking for :)

Search for replies is implemented and update is available, it basically just finds any post showing the reply icon, which means it finds replies to replies as well which isn't ideal. I can probably make it filter those out if people think that it's required.
On the forum (as I'm not searching within threads yet) the button just redirects to My Recent Posts. Not sure whether to leave that in, or to just try and hide the button on the forum until I can implement a proper reply search.
A bug, I guess.

In the search results, hovering my mouse over an avatar no longer yields the hover menu (start conversation, invite to friends, etc.).

Forum or thread or both?
I don't know whether that will be fixable or not as it probably requires knowing how GoG's code to make that work works... I'm going to be swamped with work for a while so won't have a chance to look into it for a week or two.

I noticed it in a thread search, but checked just now and it's both. Take your time.
Has somebody reported that it doesn't like itself with Barefoot Essentials too much?
If you search for something it puts Essential's quick reply window at the top of the page but to the right of the rest of things.

Also is it possible to do search within search?
Like say look for all your posts first and then look for word supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.


And one more thing not related to your search engine, have any of you noticed that favourite threads show in the brackets number of posts instead of number of pages?
I.e. current mafia shows 1-961 in brackets, while GOG Galaxy beta thread in non-favourited shows 1-26 instead of 1-1269.

Did see it, although it's not too noticeable on my screen because I normally zoom the forum to fill the entire screen width wise.

I was unable to do that.

Already reported a while ago in the "what did just break" thread.
Just noticed that my copy of the script was at version 0.3.21. It didn't update automatically, nor was I able to use "Find Updates" to do so (both of which previously worked). Had to use the "raw" method.

Hmmm, I don't use the quick reply window so I hadn't noticed them not working together, I'll have a look and see if there's something I can fix.

Right now that's not possible, but you can just Ctrl+F to search within the results as they are all on one page. It should be possible to sort something out, it would be relatively easy so I'll add it to the planned features.

Yeah, that would most likely be due to my faulty versioning... I just added an extra number on to the end, but it's obviously read it as twenty one rather than two one, so when updating to version three it actually counts that as a downgrade so wouldn't upgrade. I'll make the next upgrade 0.4 and implement a better versioning system.

I'll also be adding the ability so search in bold text (for the Mafia games) when I get the chance.
Right. Next update is here. Just fixed the issue with Barefoot Essentials quick post and added the bold post search for the mafia games. And changed how I number the versions to make sure it auto updates. Let me know if you still have problems with anything.

I'm looking into the chat / add friends box but I'm not sure I'll be able to do much with it. There may be another update tonight if I can figure something out.
I thought mk1 Meant mortal kombat 1, which is one of my favorite games on gog.
GOG Team, do us all a favour and let adaliabooks & mrkgnao be the wed devs. we'll see some changes to the site then :P

I believe it stands for Mark 1... although don't quote me on that as I'm not 100% sure, I just like the sound of it.. ;)

Lol, that's not a good idea (me anyway) as I don't really know what I'm doing... this is just the result of trial and error and looking stuff up on stackoverflow...
But thanks for the vote of confidence :)
Right, I don't think there's any chance of me getting the social feature stuff (hovering over avatars to get the start conversation or add friend buttons) working as I have no idea where to even start. The problem does seem to be the scripts and event handlers are dropped when I pull the posts from another page, but I don't know how to rectify that.
If anyone has any ideas of how I might fix it let me know, otherwise I'll stop worrying about it and start working on new features.

Fair enough. Stopping worrying is always a good idea, Thanks for trying.
New update, just a small one.

The search now shows how many results have been found and how long the search took at the top of the results.

I think I'll starting working on the search within results function next, it shouldn't take too much effort so hopefully might be done in the next few days.
