mpjh informed me that Saved Searches has quit working. Tested it out a bit, and it stops working at the point of naming your search, the box pops up, i entered the name i wanted, clicked "ok", the box disappears, but nothing is listed under "Saved Searches". I tried uninstall/reinstall and no luck. I don't have any saved searches to test what is happening there. Thanks!

I have saved searches, but the "DEFAULT" search is not loaded by default, and the Load and Run links do nothing as well.

Site change for removing tournament dropdown has screwed this and tour stats up at the same time.

I uninstalled it to see if re-installing would fix things up, but now it's not even re-installing.

I hope somebody fixes this soon, this is one of the tools I used pretty much every day in my tournament management.

FF4 still has a bug rendering the following script useless

Map Rank GL
Tour Stats
Clan Rank
Dice Streaks

(anything that opens a new window and populates it)

These will all work on FF 3.6 but they also work on FF5 BETA

For working in FF5 BETA:

1. Install FF5 http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-beta.html
2. Install Add-on Compatibility Reporter 0.8.4+ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... -reporter/
3. Install GM 9.5 https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... /versions/

EDIT : Just noticed the GM version does actually work in FF5 without add-on compatibility so you may not need it.

Have tried now with FF3, FF4, FF5, several uninstalls and reinstalls later. For a brief while it worked fine, but now they changed the Game Finder again and once again Saved Searches are unresponsive to the new window.

I've tried that. Many times. It did work when they fixed it after the first change to Game Finder. It no longer works since the second change to Game Finder. You can select a tournament and save it, but when you try to Run a saved search you just get a raw dump of all the games on CC right back to Game 1.

My theory is that Saved Search is correctly returning the name of the tournament to the type-in space where the tournament used to go, but since that space no longer exists the name is going nowhere.

So to load a saved search with a tournament, this script will have to emulate what the [find a tournament] link does and force the drop-down to appear with the right value in it. I have GOT to learn more about the scripting language. I know what needs to be done to fix something like this, but don't know how to do it.

So the answer is hire a handyman. We need a scripting guru.

Not had a look at this yet, but you can save me or a scripting guru some time by revealing your solution.

Sorry, I guess I am overselling it to say I know what to do. All I have is what I said above. I guess that means finding out how, once you have selected a tournament from the popup finder, the name of the tournament gets put into and selected in a drop-down menu on the game finder which initially is not even visible. I have no idea how complex that would be.

Currently impossible to solve with scripts, the site code has to be changed to give scripts a chance to access the tournament name in the same window.
Whilst it may be possible to get the tournament right the first time, the window is not closed down after every search meaning it would be unwieldy to try and extract the information but I'm not going to even attempt it as the site has a better solution.

Yeah this morning's update is perfect. lack has basically put an active tournaments window in for TO's which is 90% of what I used saved searches for anyway. For the non-tournament games the utility works as before, so we're fine!

Apologies but this tool will be discontinued unless the Tech Team wishes to appoint a new keeper, I will not be doing any more work on tools.
