I can no longer upvote or favorite thumbnails when I search for any tag in the search bar; it only works on the main post page now. Not even the zoom function works.

EDIT: Its no longer working for me in the main posts page either. I checked the userscript, and it says it's enabled.

Me too. It's why I waited a couple of hours and then remembered I had another browser and tested it there too only to find that it was also happening, so then I took a chance to report it.

No luck on my end, however I never even knew about re621.
I only found out about it because people were having issues, looks cool!

I'm on a fresh install, tampermonkey and browser is brave
doing a bit of troubleshooting, and it is fine on chrome.
I am a silly billy, I diagnosed the problem.
For some reason brave reset the extension options and had userscripts disabled

i hope it's just me but a bunch of stuff such as the favorite heart next to tags and the loading circle is /f004 or similar.

Not just you, the Font Awesome icons broke for whatever reason, they're just displaying their icon codes. Documented in issue #432

Is there any way to download all the selected files in one folder when using the mass downloader? Instead of having multiple files of artists names, tia

Go to the script settings (wrench icon in the top right corner) and select the "Downloads" tab.
You can change the folder structure by editing the "Image file name" field in the "Mass Downloader" section.
Something like %postid%-%md5% would put all files into one folder.

Sorry it took me so long to respond; I was giving this site a break. Anyhow, thanks for fixing the issue. It works great right now.

Downloading all is very clunky, well probably more of a browser issue as downloads have a chance to fail and not have the option to be restart the download. There was a page where it stopped completely.
So I switched to downloading individual pages, but it seems like the downloader sometimes has trouble with specific webm (and I think webp too) files. If it encounters a file it can't download it simply stops, makes a zip, skips the file it can't download and makes another zip file. Not sure why. It doesn't happen too often but I find it pretty inconvenient as there are a few files that can only be downloaded manually.

If there's a way to fix this I'd love to know.

Using the download button on set pages is buggy. On multiple occasions it would endlessly loop downloading the first batch files.
Smallest set I encountered it on was https://e621.net/post_sets/46185 only 36 files but it gets stuck downloading the first 35 over and over.
Actually going into the set and using the select all visible download function worked normally.

It's possible, but it's not trivial. There is no built-in functionality for this.
1. Close all e621 tabs except for one.
2. Open the Notifications window, go to the Settings tab, and set "Cache Size" to 500 in the Tags section. That'll allow you to grab as many posts as possible.
3. Click the Clear Cache button – that will remove everything from the notifications area, but you'll be filling it back up anyways, and doing it like this will make less mess.
4. Open the Tampermonkey settings (click on the Tampermonkey icon -> "Dashboard" -> "Settings" tab) and set "Config mode" to "Advanced"
5. Click on the "Installed Scripts" tab, then find "re621 - e621 Reimagined" in the list, and click on it. Then, click on the "Storage" tab.
6. You are going to need to find a section that looks like this:

"re621.TagTracker": {
    "enabled": true,
    "updateInterval": 3600000,
    "cacheMaxAge": 0,
    "cacheSize": 500,
    "hideMinorButton": false,
    "lastUpdate": 1704198976645,
    "lastAttempt": 0
},

That's the settings for the tag-based subscription tracker.
Set the lastUpdate value to 0. The section should now look like this:

"re621.TagTracker": {
    "enabled": true,
    "updateInterval": 3600000,
    "cacheMaxAge": 0,
    "cacheSize": 500,
    "hideMinorButton": false,
    "lastUpdate": 0,
    "lastAttempt": 0
},

7. Go back to e621, and reload the page. The subscriptions should start updating automatically.

As I said, it's not trivial, but it should work.
Let me know if you run into any trouble.

This method still doesn't work as tampermonkey still doesn't like manually editing and saving re621's settings anymore.
However, I did figure out that the (new?) Reset Modules feature can manually reset the Tag Tracker, which had the same functionality. It's too bad posts are capped at 500, though, I did lose a day or two of posts...

The new update (1.5.101) completely broke all download functionality on Vivaldi. I tested firefox and it worked just fine however both the button under a post and the hotkey do not download. They just darken the icon as if I clicked it then do nothing. The hotkey issue has been a problem since I started using re621 in June however the download button not working is a brand new issue.

Hey, could you maybe reimplement the addition of +set/+pool buttons to the main post menu (removed in 1.5.101) as toggles in the settings? It saves just one click on the overflow, but that adds up real quick.

Seconded, the download button too. The cleaner (less buttons) look is nice, but giving power users the option to have all the buttons back instead of within a button menu would be nice. I like me some clutter.

Not sure if it's just me, but as of the most recent site maintenance, the 'Quick Rescale' setting appears to have stopped working.

Was wondering where the download button went... Seems reminiscent of the awful windows 11 right click context menu change.
I third for the option to toggle if buttons go into overflow menu.

Edit: As a work around for the time being, I made a small userscript to put the download button back.

Hey, sorry to bother y’all, but I saw what this topic was about and got really excited!

What I’d like to know is if anyone managed to get a complete or partial copy of the Young tag before the purge happened. Are we allowed to talk about that? Sorry if I’m overstepping here, I just think it’s a shame that so much stuff was lost, and it’s not like I have any idea how to re-find it or find a new place like e621 but not censored.

Related: has anyone been keeping non-site controlled backups of the rest of the e621 archive? I’m a little worried about more purges in the future causing permanent losses of the art available online.

It's strange that you say you saw what this topic is about, because this clearly isn't what the topic is about.

RE621 is a userscript that changes several aspects of site functionality. It is not a magical replacement for the e621 archive.

I only moved the button below images. I use firefox with tampermonkey, can't say it'll work with every userscript manager or browser.
Bulk downloading is to the left on the search page as the (Select) button under "Download" under all the tags. I don't think that has changed in 1.5.101.

For me, you have to select the "3 dot" context menu to be able to get to the download button (See here: https://ibb.co/NdbpXgJV ). Also using Brave. Been using RE621 for years now and this seems out of place.
Another issue is that I am now unable to click images to be able to resize them as I was before.

I'll likely be rolling back to the previous update which worked fine for me.

The topic said it was also a “mass downloader” of some kind so that’s why I was asking if anyone had downloaded the now removed images? Like if they mass downloaded the old young tag for some reason.

Sorry if I’ve offended!

Hello everyone, how can I use "prevent favorites from being blacklisted" without the UI being changed? It's just CSS so it should be possible, right? I just installed the script and I don't like the CSS. I also don't like how the font is changed for artist and species tags, which I'd also like to change.
Edit:
I found how to edit the font: it was under theme.
Edit 2: There is a custom css snippet made by waydence for this.

https://e621.net/forum_topics/60052#unhides_blacklisted_favorites

If you can't find which snippet to use, use find in page and "unhide blacklisted favorites" with date 25-11-06

Hi... I don't know if there is a way to do this. But I tried and couldn't find a way to do it...

So, I don't know if this a ""feature request""

Is it possible to extract the ""rating:"" when downloading a file?

By example.... if you prompt ->> %artist% - %postid% - E621 - %md5% - "rating"

You get something like: 2d10 - 2091234 - E621 - 86a910132b44a15cac9351fc32b6765f - Safe

If can't be done with the actual script... can you add it? it would be very very helpful to download the name with the actual rating and separate the artist's work between Safe, questionable and explicit :3

And finally, thanks for this script... Awesome job, It do wonders.

There used to be a hotkey that opened the tag editor for a post and brought the cursor selection into that text field.

Was really useful for quickly copying post tags into my offline Eagle library. (Press hotkey, ctrl+c, alt+tab, ctrl+v - and boom! done!)

Can we have that back? pretty pleeeease? :)

I seem to be experiencing the same bug as wrong n4me. I am on Brave Browser in case it's relevant.

It seems to be that re621 causes the form saving process [when commenting, making a forum post etc] to not function properly. I've been browsing through the script and cannot find what might be causing it aside from the userscript itself. I dunno what to do, man.

I believe it has something to do with it rebuilding the inputs manually, but I never checked. This happens with lighter forks of it too, so I suspect it might also just be a consequence of the underlying framework, custom or Tampermonkey. In any case, we likely can't properly find & fix this, & specifically engineering a feature to store your unfinished drafts in localStorage would likely be both the best move & extremely irritating/time-consuming to implement, but it's on my radar if I get a chance.

Could you elaborate? What does Tampermonkey/Greasemonkey/whatever say, have you tried on e926 & e621, what version are you on, are there any errors in the console log (right click > Inspect Element), etc?
