Enhanced SteamGifts & SteamTrades (ESGST)

An extension / userscript that adds some cool features to SteamGifts and SteamTrades.

If you find any bugs or have any feature requests, please file an issue here.


Compatibility

Tested and confirmed as working:

  • Chrome (since v55)
  • Firefox (since v52)
  • Pale Moon

Not tested but should be working:

  • Any Chromium-based browser (such as Opera, Vivaldi, etc...)

Not supported:

  • Edge
  • Safari

Installation

There are two different ways to use ESGST: extension or userscript. You can choose which one you want to use, but the extension is a lot faster and has a better peformance than the userscript, so I recommend it, although there is no major difference between them, except for a few options that are only available in the extension because of limitations in the userscript.

Option 1 - Extension

It should be possible to install the extension in any Chromium-based browser from the Chrome store (such as Opera, Vivaldi, etc...), any Firefox-based browser from the Firefox store (such as Waterfox, etc...), and any browser that uses the Phoebus system from the Pale Moon store (such as Basilik, etc...).

You can also use the extension on Android through Firefox for Android, but some features might not work or not be optimized enough for mobile.

Option 2 - Userscript

To install the userscript, you must install Violentmonkey, Tampermonkey, Greasemonkey or some other userscript manager first. Then click here and you should be prompted to install it. I recommend Violentmonkey or Tampermonkey, because the userscript uses the GM_addValueChangeListener API to communicate changes in the storage between tabs, and that API is not available on Greasemonkey, so a polyfill is used for Greasemonkey, which is not very effective and can affect the performance.

You can also use the userscript on Android through Firefox with Violentmonkey or USI, but some features might not work or not be optimized enough for mobile.


Beta Versions

The latest beta version for both the extension and the userscript is always available in the latest pre-release in the releases page.

Thanks for all the good updates.

I am not sure if anyone mentioned this yet but I tried using the giveaway template and whenever I save my template, the time shifts on both start time and end time based on the time passed when loading them later on (Ex: I set the giveaway template to start Tomorrow at 5pm and save it. The template time then changes whenever I load it based on how much time passes like if 2 min pass the start time to the template when loaded is 5:02pm.) Is there some way to keep the template to stay at whatever time you saved it to?

i'd prefer this too, but then it makes the templates only good for temporary usage. which is all i use it for anyways, and from the sounds of it you as well, but that's probably not the way the majority of users use it.

possibly adding a tickbox "save precise end time" underneath or above the time section could give us the option to have it both ways though. ^^

I was planning on using the save template for making train giveaways since I make a lot of those and the precise time would help a lot. Hopefully it can be looked into and possible added in a future update I hope.

ahh, tbh i recommend SG ChooChoo for actual trains. it chains them together with "Next" buttons automatically from the ending (first created) of the train to the beginning (last created), and i already had them alter that script to save the precise endtime rather then the amount of minutes.
(it too used to use precise minutes instead of precise endtime, till i suggested the same change you are now xD)

Ah i see thanks, ill give that one a try in the meantime. Were you able to do multiple trains with that script cause I want to try to run different trains at once at the same time and was hoping if this one can do it.

Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

you have to create only one train at a time for the proper auto-linking to happen, but you can launch several trains at the same time after they're created one after another (basically finish one train before creating the next, but yes)

and i was actually mistaking, it still isn't altered in the script download itself, but the edits to have a "fixed endtime" are all posted by the creator in their replies to me inside of that thread.

if the editing is too difficult to follow for you just lmk and i'll pastebin the full script code to you ;)

Just a question and a suggestion.
Question: is there a possibility to avoid graying-out my own comments?
Suggestion: is there a possibility of "bookmarking" highlited discussions? Like we'd have a place with link to all these discussions or something like that?

Hi,
maybe it would be good if you used the release feature on github. One could download a previous version there in case the current one was problematic for them, for example.

if i'm not mistaking that releases tab is for when it's different versions. such as x86, x64, ppc, arm, etc.
what you're looking for already exists, it's the commits (first tab). then find the version you want, and the far right button is "browse this repository at this point of time". that's essentially snapshots of what they were like at that point. =)

No, I think it can be use like I wrote. I just check some repositories and they use it like that. Check ASF releases for example. But I don't need it so badly, if it was more work for Revil, they cannot so it. The feature in commits is good too. It would be just more cool. :)

Thanks for this! I just started using it and it's great!

I notice that it looks like we have different filters for main, group, and wishlist giveaway pages, so we can set the default filters differently for each search. However, the recommended search uses the same filter as the main view. Is it possible to add another saved filter setting for the recommended view so it can have its own filter that doesn't affect viewing all giveaways? Or can I do that already and I'm just missing something?

Thanks!

Seems a set of giveaways I am attempting to do, are NOT showing up, at all. On top of that, the post it is in, is causing the Star to NOT show up at the top of the page, where a star was previously showing up on the top of a page, with my post removed.

The relevant post is This one here..

Here is the console log that shows up for this.

bad entry removal, bad.. xD
idk why, but for some reason the entry remover had removed these two titles entries, neither of which are owned by me.

edit: is it maybe api key vs steam store login method? (i'm using api) -- that would sorta make sense to me on the arma 2 dlc, but it doesn't quite fit with the sonic allstar racing game.

Ah that was my fear. I didn't know if apps and subs could have the same id (I did a little bit of research but found nothing useful). I believe other features of the script can be compromised as well because of this (Game Categories come to mind), will try to fix it as soon as I can.

I may just have disabled something by accident, as I'm not sure if there's a setting for this, but ESGST no longer seems to be adding a star to the giveaways list for games I've previously entered for. The stars are still there for games I first entered for quite a while ago, but when I enter giveaways for a new (unstarred) giveaway, it doesn't add a star to that or any other giveaway for that game.

Edit
I found the setting (Game Highlighter) for this, but it was already enabled. I tried disabling and re-enabling, but it didn't seem to change anything, entering a non-starred game giveaway doesn't seem to be adding a new star.

Wow, haven't noticed the script changed from rhSGST to eSGST ;D, what a vast improvement!
Only thing I'd like to ask is if there is planned or a way to implement showing GA group info by hovering over the button next to level req etc., and to make the pagination navigation stick to the top and bottom concurrently?

Anyway, thank you very much for all the effort and making browsing SG even more comfortable ;>.

implement showing GA group info by hovering over the button next to level req

i've asked for this before and he won't due to the requests that would happen on accidental hovers being a waste of the servers bandwidth. however it does popup info on click if you have "Giveaway Groups Popup" enabled (just in case you weren't aware).

make the pagination navigation stick to the top and bottom concurrently

+1, i want this too

edit: the bottom one doesn't need to be fixed/stickied though, just allow the original to be in place as well as the top pagination.

Hi there. Great script - thanks for putting it together.

I'm having an issue when syncing through the manual SG sync. Each time I sync, I have the script remove entries for owned games. I do not own Kaptain Brawe: A Brawe New World, yet the script keeps removing my entry from this GA.

Thankfully, the script tells me what was done, so I am reminded to go back and correct, but it's really annoying, and it seems to only happen on this game?

The App ID, 65080, is in this link.

it's the same issue i was having here. it's currently removing sub/app id's regardless which of them is owned.

The Enter/Leave giveaway button doesn't seem to be working as expected with the latest update. When clicked, it's not entering the giveaway, and is instead popping up the giveaway page in a new tab (un-entered). Same thing when clicking "leave" on a previously entered giveaway.

Just to enforce that users read descriptions before entering. I don't think it defeats the purpose of the button as you can still enter giveaways without a description easily.

Maybe I can make it pop up in the same page instead of opening a new tab if that makes it more convenient.

How is genres and user-defined tags supposed to work together? Is there supposed to me merged? I am not sure if it works as it is supposed to do. It seems I can see too few of them as before (I still haven't tested it much, though). It seems it shows only genres. Also it seems there is a problem with showing the ratting - it takes even minutes to load for me.

Yes, but only manually at the moment. If you want to do it, just find the line that says

if (!savedGames[type][id] || (typeof savedGames[type][id].lastCheck === `undefined`) || ((Date.now() - savedGames[type][id].lastCheck) > 604800000)) {

and edit the number (preferably not too low, otherwise if you access the page again in a short period of time it will update again and thus waste requests to the Steam server). If you think there has been more than 24 hours since the data was retrieved, you could use that time. 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000 = 86400000

Did you remove the possibility to turn off the giveaway descriptions? Why? You always gave us the possibility to turn on or turn off what we wanted. :( Now the giveaway enter button is totally screwed up since we cannot use it for mot of giveaways since they contain a general description such as "good luck" or " please mark the game as received". :(

Sorry, but I can't please everyone. Some people complain that the description should be mandatory, others complain it shouldn't... Unfortunately there is no way to find out if the description of a giveaway is meaningful or not. I'm not reverting it to the old system.

The popup is coming back later though, it's currently opening in a new tab because that was easier/faster to implement and I wanted to push the update as soon as I could.

But earlier everyone could decide if they wanted to see the description or not. Now one group of people decided for everyone. And it solves anything anyway since I can enter the giveaways without reading the description on the new opened page. It's not so hard to ignore it since I can automatically look to the left side of the page and click the enter button.

6 years ago

I already changed my mind on this issue once and I'm not doing it again. The argument that was brought up by other users was that even if you choose to ignore the description in the opened page, at least it was shown to you.

Comment has been collapsed.

when you bring the popup back, will it auto-enter still but just bring the description up? i think the forced viewing, but still having it enter would be least intrusive on both parties. it still enters whether there is the description or not, but if there is a description it would show it, however it can be clicked right out of and ignored for users who don't care to read it still.

edit: nevermind i just read this comment and see how you want it. i personally didn't care anyways, don't use that feature either way.

It won't auto enter because let's say you click the Enter button, it auto enters, but the description states the key is locked or something, so now you have to leave the giveaway. Not only were the 2 requests made completely useless, but if you have the option to hide entered giveaways enabled, it can be a pain to leave the giveaway afterwards.

yeah, i got that after reading a prior comment of yours. thanks for the explanation though. ^^

Comment has been collapsed.

The scenario you are describing sounds like a fringe use case (as I assume the overwhelming number of giveaways aren't region locked). Instead every user in 99% of the giveaways with a description they enter is forced to click through either a popup or a 2nd page. This in my opinion is bad design from a user friendliness perspective (extra click for the most used use case). So I'd strongly prefer that it'd be left as an option to the user which method they prefer.

I do understand that the fringe case occurring can be a problem; however I feel that should primarily be the responsibility of the person entering the giveaway to resolve (he or she might not read the description anyway even if it's in a new tab / pop-up). Or he / she might only be entering giveaways that are almost never region locked. If you feel that it'd be hard to leave the giveaway, just don't allow the option to hide giveaways to be enabled in combination with the other option. I'd be perfectly fine with that.

Or is the idea primarily that it's against the spirit of the website to not read the description? While I definitely understand that reasoning (and agree with it) I don't think it should be the mission of a plugin to enforce it. If that's the main reason then I do agree there's not really an other option.

Having said all that; thanks for all the work on the plug-in much appreciated. Note: Main reason I installed your plug-in is the one click entering giveaways, so that's why I'm responding in depth here ;-).

it is upto the responsibility of the user to actually read it or not though, but by not having it visible to them they clearly won't read it. it was argued that the default vanilla site forces people to at least see it, they may not be forced to read it, but it was there for them to do so and they had that choice.

it is not the mission of this script to enforce it, but it is also not the mission of this script to deforce it which is what it was allowing to happen with its prior setup.

My suggestion would be to have the current behaviour as default and to have an option to turn that behavior off so that it's a conscious choice of the end user. Best of both worlds (for as far as there's a perfect solution ;)).

i've tried it when it's been any of the ways and personally prefer no enter button and just visiting pages in new tabs with middle mouse button, so it doesn't matter much to me.

The reasoning was that the script was making the giveaway description reading rate worse by not showing it. When it's shown, it's up to the user to read it or not, but at least it was shown.

And it also applies to games where the creator says something like "do not enter if you own x games in the package", so it's not just region-restricted related.

Thanks for the explanation. Much appreciated!

To me it would seem that having a setting that's turned off by default to allow the user to turn the current behaviour off would be the best of both worlds. But I can definitely understand your reasoning for not doing so.

I thought it was a bug. Too bad its mandatory and not optional like before :)

Last update is eating RAM memory. Tampermonkey is going up to 1.5GB and with older versions i never had that problem.

Can you try disabling Game Tags, Game Categories and Entered Games Highlighter, one at a time, if enabled, and see if anything changes? Those were pretty much the only features touched in the last update.

Game Tags and Entered Games Highlighter were off already. Will turn on/off Game Categories for some time and let you know if there is any change :)

Intended new behavior. More info about it in other comments in this thread, popup coming back later.

Ok, that's not nice....
Enter button just does the same thing as if I click on my mouse scroll wheel so why would I need a script taking some resources on my computer to do the same thing ?
In my opinion it's not a good change and that's one forced on everyone, just to force a few guys to read description for them not to lose a few points and anyway still they won't read with this change, it will just be a bit more painful for them AND for everyone else.....
But I guess you are doing the same thing as in most countries, set up new rules more strict and with less and less freedom just to force the minority to act "properly", I can understand even if I don't agree :)

Well, that's not the only feature in this script, so if you only installed the script for that feature it might be a good idea to uninstall it, because, yeah, it's just taking up resources. Although it does not do the same thing as your mouse scroll (I don't understand this). Giveaways without descriptions can still be entered easily without a problem. And like I said, the popup is coming back later. Maybe you'll feel better about it then.

Will the enter giveaway buttons work correctly later? Like before you wil be able to enter giveaways without opening?

It already works "correctly", but if you mean the old way, then no. Instead of opening in a new tab, it will open in a popup in the same window, but it will still open.

so maybe it opens new window but enters it as well so you can just ignore it? no?

Negative game rating class is never applied 😉

Note: "SG Entered / Created / Won Giveaway Page" script needs to be executed before ESGST or it conflicts with game highlighter.

Are you sure? I get them fine here.

The background color is coming from ".nav__notification" not from ".esgst-gc.rating.negative" because the negative class is not added to the element.

Ah nevermind, it's actually the color from the notification class that I'm getting.

Still the same as of v6.Beta.3.17 😉

Nope, it's fixed. Caches only update after 7 days, so it will take a while for you to see them in games that have been recently scanned. Try opening a page that has games that haven't been recently scanned and you should see it.

Same error someone else just reported, I'm looking into it.

Can you go to the line that says

suffix = `</span>`;

and add

console.log(tags);

to the end of it so I can understand why it's happening?

Empty array

+1

Added console.log(tags); as well. Output [""]

Edit: Gosh I didn't even realize that it worked on some pages. XD I have a page that goes

["sequel"]
["sequel"]
[""]

I'll check to see if there's any specific game it's reacting negatively to.

Edit 2: I couldn't find a specific game it's reacting negatively to. :P At least, not one that's common among the pages having the error.

The use of old versions of the script is not recommended, but you can browse the GitHub repository before the latest commits. The popup is coming back in a few minutes though, so I'd suggest just waiting.
