Can't Save about infy-scroll HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi, thank you for opening this issue and for using Infy!

I've updated the Help Guide to better document how to add a save here.

There's two ways to add a save in the app:

1. From the Popup UI Window
2. From the Options Screen

I'm assuming you're using the Popup UI Window. If so, you need to click the Heart Button in the top-right corner to bring up the Save Dialog, then enter the URL Pattern and click the YES Button (so that the heart is now filled in), and then click the ACCEPT Button. Afterwards, you should see a purple heart icon in the top-right corner like this:

If you're not seeing the purple heart icon as shown above, can you please describe the exact steps you are doing so I can try and reproduce the issue?

I hope this helps! 💜

Here is a video I recorded on a Firefox browser. The only active extension is yours, ublock for ads, and a screen recorder to record it. Other extensions are disabled.

(In case you can't see it, lmk)

I forgot to add refresh the page and clicking out after saving the heart isn't purple.

Also on your About option page on the extension, it has 2020, Just thought I would share for a good plugin!

Hi again, thanks for the video!

OK, so I see two issues:

1. After you clicked the YES Button in the Save Dialog, you didn't click the ACCEPT Button at the bottom and instead you clicked out to exit the Popup UI Window. You need to click both YES, then ACCEPT; you can't close and reopen the Popup UI Window inbetween those two clicks.

2. You saved the URL pattern for only the current URL (changing the 2 to a 3), but you should make sure that your Saved URL pattern is more generic and doesn't contain a page number, or else it won't activate on any other URLs (such as page 4, page 5, and so on). This can easily be done by trimming off the last part of the URL, like for example: https://download.cnet.com/windows. You may even be able to remove the /windows part as well so it works for other platforms/search terms.

Both of these points are mentioned in the Save Dialog helper text (in case you ever forget). I made Point 1 in red text so it's hard to miss.

Yes, the 2020 is intentional and just my preference, and also because that's the original year that the app was first released publicly. Thank you for the concern regardless.

I hope this helps! 💜

Hi.

So it worked.

1. What happened is more gamer logic. When saving a game, it has the save option aka purple heart. It has a popup if you want to or not aka yes or no options. So I expected it to be saved but it needs another option of the Accept button which sounds off from my gaming mind. Expecting another popup to agree and not that agree there. It's all gamer logic on my side so sorry about that.

2. Thanks for the advice but I'm just a beginner in the url part. Xpath does help!

Regarding the save steps, I can make a short video or maybe gif to give a better demonstration and you can link it in the wiki so other people don't make mistakes if you don't mind.

Hi, no worries on the video! I'm glad you've got it working. I'll go ahead and close this.

Thank you!
