| 2024-10-12 |  | | en | Hey! This was working great for me until recently the force alignment feature is not working. I can't seem to allow my work text to be justified as the option isn't available and it seems like other people are also not seeing the option - https://github.com/jsmnbom/ao3-enhancements/issues/85. Please help to resolve this issue soon! Thanks! |
| 2024-10-02 |  | | en | Very satisfied with this overall, however, I can't get it to show the added chapter statistics. I had thought it was because my site skin was interfering for some reason (it's a pretty big visual overhaul, so I would not be surprised to find that it caused problems, it's done weird things to work skins occasionally) but I disabled the skin and the box is still not showing up. I am aware that this extension was broken and has only recently been fixed so maybe this was missed? Desired stats are date updated and chapter word count, the reading time stats will just make me feel bad about myself lol. Also, fully unrelated to extension but people who would use it would want to know this probably: in regards to anyone who would like to change the appearance of the site, ao3 users have access to a wide array of things you can use to modify the design! There are a long list of basic and limited default ones, for example, one that splits tags by type in browsing, and you can make your own (html for anything more complicated than playing with fonts and colors), or easier, copy paste someone else's site skin into the create section. You can find custom ones on tumblr and ao3. (On ao3, check the site skin tag, it's not canonical but there's a bunch.) You do have to have an account to do any of this but I'd recommend getting one anyway tbh, more and more fics are being locked to archive users only in order to protect them from being scraped by AI. I promise it doesn't take that long for your account to be approved. Anyway this tangent brought to you by me wanting to tell the review under me at this time (Tin Paudenovic) of the existence of site skins. |
| 2024-09-15 |  | | en | Works great! May I suggest a feature? Could you consider making the browsing page for works more like the view when you open a work? Specifically, separating tags into categories such as Relationships, Characters, Additional Tags, etc. The current layout feels a bit cluttered, making it difficult to find or exclude specific tags easily. |
| 2024-09-13 |  | | en | Very convienent extension but the update date part of the chapter stats seems to be causing the entire chapter stats to disappear when toggled on, the other 3 chapter stats toggles work normally but it's only when the update date is toggled on that it causes the entire thing to disappear in ao3 |
| 2024-08-31 |  | | en | seems very convenient, will be recommending to all my ao3 friends, however I dont know if its just me but the "chapter stats" feature (above the notes and below the chapter title) isn't at the start of every chapter, not really a problem just a lil surprising |
| 2024-08-16 |  | | en | I Love it! It's the best AO3 extension for me. I use it mostly to hide unwanted tags and I haven't used anything since. Although, it got with the update, it would help very much to change the color of the add button for Hiding Author and Tags in dark mode, lol. I sometimes forget it was there and had to click everywhere to find the button, then ended up re-installing and going light mode to be able to see it. That happened twice now xD Aside from that, absolutely loving it! |
| 2024-08-11 |  | | en | Absolutely amazing. Its super convenient and helpful<3 |
