Update 1.3.0

Rejoice, for now if you own a huge bag of games you will be able to ignore them with a simple click. Wait, theres more, think the page is too long? No worries, use the slider to call the gremlins. They will do their tricks to make it shorter. Enjoy!

1.3.0 is very broke for me. Endless scrolling and syncing are no longer working for me.

Same and also the top menu won't show unless I am scrolled down a bit. :S

And why are there 3 ignore buttons on each giveaway??

It seems that theres one or more version of the addon running at a time.

edit: Due to the name change the addon is recognized like a separate addon. Once you removed prior version, it should work :)

Opera - Just delete the previous file from the extension directory

Chrome - Go chrome://extensions/ and remove 'steamgifts giveaway filter'

Firefox - Right click on the monkey face -> manage user scripts -> remove 'steamgifts giveaway filter'

Hm, seems that it doesn't fully save the ignore list. Version 1.3.2.

The list you see in the setting is only updated manually and by the ignore button. It is then merged with the list from the sync page and used to remove any unwanted giveaways. I am about certain it works :)

Yeah, yeah, I got this.
The problem, I click the ignore button, the game appears on the list. But after I refresh the page, it's no longer there!

The only reason I can think of is:

  1. you have too many games on the list, remove them, you no longer needed the games from your sync library in that list. The list can be only 4096 characters

  2. you are running the other addon for chrome

Comment has been collapsed.

Highlighting is done on the 10 games from your sync page. Alternatively, you can open the setting and add games manually in the following format: "0. GAME NAME" ('GAME NAME' should be the full name as it appears on the site). Do not forget to separate them from other entries with a comma ( , )

Hey Zo, great one!

Is it possible to add functionality to remove reported by us giveaways from the view?

edit: I don't like it forcing us to open the giveaway page in a popup. Would like to be able to open in new window. The popup functionality also doesn't work well. If I enter a giveaway from a popup, then close the popup and open it again, it shows an error.

I'll just use a previous build (1.2.9) :)

edit2: I also liked the force sync button, how do you do that in niew builds?

The sync page how the site works. I have nothing to do with it. CG is the guy you need to thank. Can you post a screenshot of the error you are getting?

Comment has been collapsed.

I didn't make my self clear, I'm sorry. I meant you used to have a button "sync", which doesn't exist anymore. I found that usefull.

I'll reinstall the latest one some time and post a screenshot if I encounter that error again. :)

Also may I ask why when I press F5 to refresh page, the just ignored games are no longer ignored?

1 decade ago

Comment has been collapsed.

The sync button was replaced due to change the mechanics. People simply had too many games to fit in the box. It takes time for the addon to hit. It fires up when the page is completely loaded and first clears giveaways from the box. Meanwhile, in the background it fetches the sync list. Once it is done, it clears those giveaways as well. If the site is loading a bit slower the addon wont be so snappy. So, you might spot giveaways you ignored still hanging.

In this case can I respectfully suggest that the box be used to allow us to exclude a game we already own from the list of games that will be hidden due to being on the sync page. E.g. I own TF2 but would still like to see the giveaways so I can win a premium account. What do you think? Thanks.

Just add ",0. Team Fortress 2" to the filter box. Green highlighting will exclude it from being hidden.

Love the add on. How about an option to only show giveaways for the next 24,48,etc hours. I don't enter giveaway's that's more than 24 hours away from ending and would like to be able to filter out all that's longer than that.

Edit: Better yet, why not have the filters All, Wishlist and Today.

Another idea - to add the "created ..." filter or "only new" filter. To see what's new on site

Have you thought about moving the latest winners and the top contributors windows to the left and right of the game scrolling? It is kinda hard to see who has won recently if we have to scroll all the way down.

Giveaway filter and endless scrolling is not working anymore since today in the main page. Halp!
BTW I'm on Opera and endless scrolling is working here in the forum.

Edit: Strangely going to page 2 seemed to have fixed it.

Great addon! Love it.
But there's one thing left for filtering... wildcard filtering or some sort of. It's a bit annoying to add all types of game packages, like Humble Indie Bundle #1 /#2 /#3.

Would be nice to see that feature.
Please keep working on! :)

Update 1.3.7

You can now use wild card (*) to filter out many spammy titles. Say, '*bundle*' would filter all bundles and borderlands\* will filter all Borderlands game version and dlc. Be careful not to leave a lonely star, which will push all giveaways into the void.

There seems to be a weird bug: if you delete everything from the list, it'll start showing only the stuff from your wishlist. And viewing is on "All".

How to disable giveaway pop-up?

There is no way to disable it. You can use the comment link bellow or game icon to visit the page. Alternatively, I imagined most of you own a mouse with scroll button. If you scroll click (middle button) the link it opens new window/tab. My assumption was that, nobody would need an off switch as there are so many alternative and you wouldn't close the endless scroll page when viewing giveaways.

If you click middle mouse button(aka scroll) it won't open in a new tab. You must do something with that bug

Games with the same name or sequels with the same name get filtered out by the sync list, but they show up when you disable the "Ignore games in my sync library." setting and reload the page. This happens with far cry, bioshock, and probably others. tldr: have bioshock 1, not bioshock 2, both get filtered out in 1.3.8.

Comment has been collapsed.

I noticed that the filter is ignoring wrong games this way too. Like it doesn't show me Bioshock 2 because I have Boishock 1 in my account. Similarly it ignores Magica Frozen Lake DLC that I don't know too. Also I noticed that if I refresh the page and go over the whole list of games , some appear and disappear among different refreshes by some other patterns that I can't identify too.
