Edit:
A very late update. Fixed a bug in Fimfiction Advanced that stopped the colour picked from appearing.
I told you there'd be some updates this week.

Edit June 22, 2022:
I've re-written this script. It's significantly more streamlined and dependable now.

Edit April 18, 2022:
By request, added filtering to the front page and an option to totally remove stories with banned tags, rather than just collapse them. Also, a few bugfixes due to site changes over the last (wow) 4 years.
Since it looks like imgur links aren't going to be fix any time soon, if ever, I've gone and updated the Pony Emoticons Pack. Any images that used to be on imgur are now hosted at the regular location.
You can get the latest version from the usual links below.
Edit: Fixed a small mistake in the matcher for imgur. New version is 1.5.2
Thanks to Jondor for the report. Problems involving the custom banner (which includes crashing on the settings page, or other functions not working) should be fixed now.
Oooooh boy, it's so cathartic to be writing one of these again. Bet you thought it was dead!
Well HAHA! Just when you thought it was down, the horse comes right back up to kick ya in the meester!
This update fixes a few bugs, mainly to do with cookies and banners. Banners have been changed to use localstorage instead, so they should save properly (and permanently) again.
I also fixed some bugs with saving the custom banners.
Oh yeah, and one new banner:
It's been a long time coming, and to be honest, I'm still not fully satisfied. There's a lot of old fimfic backgrounds that I was never able to find, but I've finally decided to release what I have for the next version of Fimfiction Advanced.
Did anypony notice that the advance colour selection buttons were missing? I didn't. :T
Y'all can get the fixed version from the links and stuff. (Warning: May contain nuts, and other bug fixes)
Edit: Tradition cute pony pic:
Heya, I hope everypony's have a good December!
I've brought out a bit of an update for Fimfiction Advanced just to fix some christmas related bugs.
Fixes:
· Fixed snow in the banner hiding the site logo
· Fixed snow misbehaving when it's supposed to be in the background of the site
· Fixed a knighty bug which caused things to stop moving when the tab loses focus [1]
I told y'all I'd be making an update. I told you.
After many weeks and months spent meticulously digging through the deepest reaches of the internet...
Dipping into the darkest depths of the internet archive, probing the inner recesses of archive.is...
New friends were made. Old friends were reunited, and then subsequently fell out of touch, then reunited again with each other once again...
Update: Released 1.7.2 to fix a syntax error in the last update. Whoops!
Wait, what's that? "What happened to 4.7.0"? Shhhh-shhhhhh don't think about it.
Fimfiction Advanced 4.7.1 has just been released!
Otherwise known as the whole title of this blog post. Fimfiction Advanced now includes a far more powerful and customisable site feed aimed at better productivity and stuff.*
The features of the new feed fall into two categories: The Fancy Feed (or Smart Feed), and the Simple Feed.
1.1 Fancy Feed
A big shout out to The Abyss for finding in the old version of Nosey Hound! He gains, like, 50 followers a day, the guy's a beast.
Anyway!
This version fixes bugs where the script would break whenever the number of followers you gain or lose exceeds the total transaction history for the script.
Back in December of 2013, I organized the emoticon panel:
This had a userscript (thread here), which has long since disappeared (userscripts.org died). The script would no longer work anyway (due to site changes).
So, here is a new thingybug for you!
Had a nice weekend away from home with my gran. Was fun. ^_^
Unfortunately that means I've missed the episode, so that's probably what I'm going to do today on top of finishing up a Ghost Squad chapter for some time this week.
Also have some updates for these userscripts because Solly's left these waiting for way too long.
Pinkie Pie, please, I told you to stop doing this. I don't want Kaidan to slap us with a C&-- Nope!
For all the people who still follow me for my userscripts, I've just posted a new update to Fimfiction Advanced to fix a few issues and add support for some new feature's knighty has been adding to the site.
From now on the quote button on comments will include the name of the user being quoted. Some people might have noticed me using it for a while on Admiral Biscuit's comments. (I don't think he's noticed yet, )
So from now on instead of having quotes like this:
>When your userscript is running flawlessly without issue for several years running
>Then nighty decides to make a site-wide announcement
I cri.
Updated to fix the better feeds' "unread" tracking for when there is a site-wide announcement. So now you can mark it as read and it should, probably, definitely, remember what you marked as read. I am, like, 99.8% sure it's gonna work now.
Too little to fill another blog post, yet too late to amend my last one.
FimFiction Advanced has been updated to fix some bugs, and a clash with knighty's width option for chapter pages.
Edit: Updated again to fix a crash on Google Chrome. I also update Extra Emoticons to fix an issue where images wouldn't be unspoilered immediately.
Not really an update per-se, but a slight change to the content packs.
The Pony Pack gets three new emoticons based on recent seasons:
* otherwise known as the apology trixie
You'll also notice the pony packs got a bit of a reorganising:
Pony Pack:
Essentially, all it does is make the story lists on the front page, (new/updated stories + popular stories), as well as the related stories list on the side of story pages, scrollable.
It also shortens the list down to a preset size, making it so you don't have to scroll the entire site page just to find a story.
Merry 'almost' Christmas!
After a very long wait I can finally get some updates and fixes out for my userscripts. The details are listed below, and if any one has a problem be sure to let me know.
Extra Emoticons
The emoticons hosted on deviantart have all been updated, so that should fix problems with them not loading on https connections.
