Update about Userstyles new design release

  • hmm, there exists a (pirate?) site - freestyler.ws, which duplicates the content of userstyles.org. And its design painfully recalls the new appearance of us.o

    What the hell is this can I login over there they have a lot of my styles hosted there. Bit disappointed that they have a sort option and userstyles.org does not asked for that feature years ago.

    Looking at it freestyler.ws has a more functional search layout (shows full titles, descriptions) and style page features than the current re-design (doesn't upscale cropped screenshots, displays related styles), despite being a curious mirror of the content here–and with their own custom addon, interestingly. As a bonus works fine without Javascript enabled and merely notifies via a top banner like most sites.

    If this integrated with Stylish and the Firefox for Android version it would be a decent alternative until some improvements roll out here.

    Bit disappointed that they have a sort option and userstyles.org does not asked for that feature years ago.

    Userstyles did have a sort by option though. You could sort by relevance, last updated and a few others. The one on freestyler is just more expanded. No idea what userstyles were thinking by removing it completely however.
  • Yet another style settings are missing comment.

    @JourneyOver I only see Site and Global styles but no App type ones.

    that's because freestyler doesn't officially have a quick one click way to search for app styles, you have to do manual searches. Like I said 99% of the stuff that is hosted on that site is stolen from here, so if you find a style from here (app or otherwise) it's most likely on freestyler as well.
    Can you provide an example? I cannot find anyone. I mean, there are styles for apps there, but that's because they don't have the formal format of an App type style so they are classified as Global type ones.

  • wake up administrator,when did you Release the patch for userstyles option
  • I think we've been extremely patient with this, that's more than could be expected on the internet... Userstyles, as it is now, is in downtime. People making styles need a working website, people downloading styles need a working website and you, admins, need a working website. Time to roll this out, go back to the old design, the working one. This unfinished, non user friendly, lacking in features crap needs to go away, put it in pre-alpha, where it belongs, work on it, just give us a working website.

    Well then get your shit together, get it all together and put it in a back pack, all your shit, so it's together.

    And if you gotta take it somewhere, take it somewhere, you know, take it to the shit store and sell it, or put it in the shit museum. I don't care what you do, you just gotta get it together.

    Get your shit together.
  • Also die Aktuallisierung ist der größte Schrott man kann bei manchen Themen keine Bilder meh wechseln oder eigene Dateien verwenden. Will das alte zurück war viel besser gewesen.
  • This is not serious. You can not launch an update so full of bugs and replace a functional one. It is your program and you are free to do whatever you want with it, but people have invested a lot of effort and time.

    1) Where is "Other styles for {domain}" ? That was very useful!
    2) Style reporting function would be awesome, because many styles are outdated.
    3) No popup on clicking image

    [...]- I've read your input about the advanced search, but again, the numbers prove that it had very low usage. I'm not arguing about the need to be able to reach the results that advanced search gave us, but maybe there's a better UI for it.

    You may be right, but note it seems of heavy usage among some developers and power users... then you should ask yourselves what kind of a site you're building. Will see.
  • haha it is still the same, this is hilarious. This is almost as funny as a youtube interface update.

    Thank you for this, the search there is much better than whatever engine is being used here

    There's several on there, just look up stylish or stylus on the site and you'll get plenty of extension type styles for both, look up firefox there are plenty of firefox styles there as well. I'm telling you again everything that is on this site is most likely up on that site as well since they literally just have a scrapper that scrapes this entire site, there are no ifs or buts about it, doesn't matter if it's a app style your looking for or whatever.

    @JourneyOver I'm telling you, that's wrong, you won't find any of these https://userstyles.org/categories/app except chrome-extension ones (like those you mentioned) there. That means code of App styles (formal App type styles) using style settings won't be accesible when Google/Bing/Yandex/Baidu... web caches of their pages on this site got updated , until this site is repaired or the authors of those styles extract the script needed to inject settings manually on their styles pages on the fly with this method from Jefferson https://forum.userstyles.org/discussion/55442/style-settings-page (which also needs the web caches or a capture of the page with the current settings on the Wayback-Machine or analogous... or manually editing a template of the script) and provide the inject script with instructions to use it, like Jefferson is doing https://forum.userstyles.org/discussion/55533/may-1-workaround-insert-missing-style-settings-controls
  • So, from an average of 30 installs per week on my main theme, it has now gone down to zero. Come on Userstyles, this is killing the community! Many styles are worse than useless without the style settings. This is no way to treat an open-source community.

    cant install any of themes... is dat my problem or everyones..

    Dude think whatever you want, I've been able to find several that I have searched for just fine whenever I want. I'm done responding about this since I don't even like nor support freestyler.ws so this will be my last message about it so have a good day.
  • The search feature is next to useless without at least some kind of way to sort by date updated or date added. Userstyles from 5 years ago that are broken are mixed in with new userstyles and there is no way to weed out a bunch of crap that just doesn't work properly anymore.

    This has pretty much made the site unusable for me. Nice job.
  • Anyone in for a fork?
    The original code is still available: https://github.com/stylish-userstyles/userstyles
    With management like this i don't see a good future.

    @JourneyOver It's not whatever I want, I point you exactly what styles I cannot find there, if you can find any of them there, congratulations, but yet to see it.

    Now i can't use an old script i use since a long time (Table View Plus) ...
    cf:
    Userstyles TableView+Enhancer - Dark-Grey
    :-(
    As alternative, i post a quick userscript to sort Userstyles table :
    USERTSYLES - TABLES Sorter SIMPLE

    ps :
    Strange idea to name the "delete" Usertyle button "Archive Styles"....
  • This is insane. No longer able to config styles. Absolutely no good right now. Please bring the old style back as an option at the top of the site until you sort this out.
  • Yes, this new style is definitely problematic. Look at, for instance, this style. Previously, there were many useful customization options for said style which are no longer available (old version for comparison here). As it stands, this new style is buggy and should be provided as a beta right now until such bugs are ironed out.

    In this case I don't think so, provided it effectively don't delete.

    Huh, and this site better working than userstyles.org
    Have a sorting and working search, Userstyles function broken(
    Oh Yes from now I will use http: //freestyler. ws since I can sort by update and it is SO MUCH functional.

    At least http: //freestyler. ws understand what are Userstyles and how users use them.

    Without Styles creators Userscripts.org is nothing, Now that there main goal is ONLY to make money and milk the cow they don't care really about what Userstyles Creators think.

    From now also I will upload all my new Userstyles directly and exclusively to http: //freestyler. ws and to Github.


    I agree also with the guys that say Userstyles.org Devs would be INCOMPETENT for everything (not even a basic HTML site) but make "good looking" website without any functionality where peoples stay a few seconds and never come back.

    You guys must be the designers under Windows10 GUI. :P
