Userscripts not showing up

Post by laughingcavalier »

I have firefox 20.0.01 installed and greasemonkey 1.8 - latest versions of each.
Also a number of user scripts.
They are all marked as enabled but none of them are showing up in my games or the gamefinder page. Also when I try to reinstall BOB I just get the userscript.
I tried downloading chrome but it tells me I can't get BOB as I can only download approved extensions through the google chrome apps store (or whatever it is called on chrome).
Am I missing something obvious?

Here is a helpful tip lifted from the BOB 5.2.4 topic. It can help clean up damaged installations.
Abyss24 wrote:Update on BOB install issue: I was finally able to fix this.

I was unable to install BOB on my new computer despite trying all the suggestions: re-install Greasemonkey, clean reinstall Firefox, cut and paste the text field, etc.

What finally worked was" I clicked on "Help" in the Firefox menu bar and , then selected the second option "Troubleshooting Information", then lastly clicked the button at the top right "Reset Firefox". It saved my cookies and bookmarks, everything else was cleared out, including Greasemonkey, which did not occur when I ran the clean Firefox re-install. I then followed the install Greasemonkey and install BOB links provided at the beginning of this thread.

Just wanted to throw this out there for anyone else who may be having this problem. Ender 516: thanks for your help, you got me past the initial BOB install issue I was having that I couldn't figure out, just wanted to pass this fix on to you in case someone else runs in to this problem.

I get it for just a few scripts. "Watch the game" and "map rank" don't work
but BOB still works, bit glitchy, but still works overall

At the time of this post, the API seems to be enabled again, so I hope your problems have resolved themselves.

Speed Turns is still not working. Is that one of the userscripts affected by the API?

According to the first post here, viewtopic.php?t=121144 , it does use the API. Because of its claims of near real-time notifications, I wonder if it was the culprit, overloading the system with requests?

it has been around a long time and i doubt there has been a sudden increase in users so i think CC has done something to the API for a recent update.

whatever they've done could have multiplied the time required for each Speed Turn request, grinding the system to a halt.

You're right, the script hasn't changed, but the system may have. Perhaps "trigger" would be a better word than "culprit" here. In any case, follow this topic for more information about the API: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=191107
