FAQ
Comments (9)
Works like a charm so far. This turned out to be really nice. Pressing clear freezes everything for me for some reason. I have to restart the entire webui.
I have a few suggestions:
Another pair of page buttons (synchronized with the other pair) + editable page number as textbox (for jumping straight to page 5 for example)
Filter option for favorites (with a small ❤️ icon on favorited characters)
Below search button clickable drop-down or something like that for search history (with pin to top)
Checkbox in recently viewed menu to enable/disable saving between reloads. Additionally, add favorites, gallery view, deletions (to make it less laggy over time) - could be a new menu next to list view and gallery view to avoid clutter (or make that an option somewhere to have it either where it is now or next to the others menus)
At the very bottom somewhere a "jump to top" button
copy that, good suggestions - thank you! Let me think and work on it
It's on!
@dhunters Works great! Is it possible to cross-save history and favorites across devices? I use the webui on mobile and on pc
@Lopodelas no, unless you use the same instance. Which platform are you using?
@dhunters It's just forge classic normally but with --listen so I can connect to it through mobile
Is reForge excluded?
It should work (since reForge is great with compatibility), but I didn't test it. :)
It also worked with reForge.
