Topic: How can I randomly scroll through my favorites?

Posted under e621 Tools and Applications

Heya! collected some really good art over the past few months, I was wondering how I can cycle through them all without a filter, just totally random every time! Is there any way I can do that?

What Donovan DMC said.

If by "scroll through", you mean be able to use a keyboard shortcut to go to the next image, you'll need to use one of the many slideshow viewers that have been created for this site over the years. (NOTE: Usually you can use A and D to scroll through images here, but that doesn't work with order:random.) There was a Chrome extension for this called "Booru Slideshow", which I still use sometimes, but I don't know where it can be downloaded. However, there appears to be a web-based version of it now: https://yiff.today/

Unfortunately my site doesn't really work well with favorites due to rate limiting concerns.

Woah! This is such a cool site. I may sound dumb for this, but after a little bit of fiddling, I haven’t figured out how it works… do you know how to operate it?

I put fav:N00d1es in the search bar. pressing search does nothing. I assume pressing search activates it, but it isn’t showing anything.

Ah, ok.

I haven't used the site before, but the important thing is that the left and right arrow keys can be used to scroll through images, and you can use the "Seconds per Slide" box to automatically scroll after a given delay. You have to check the "Include Explicit" and "Include Questionable" boxes to include those results. Some things, notably the play/pause button, seem broken though. Also, see DefinitelyNotAFurry4's comment: apparently it doesn't work well with favorites unfortunately, which is probably why you're not getting results. If you want, the browser extension "Umami" is an alternative option: topic #22298.

They do work, for some reason it just doesn't update until the next slide, I will fix that

Ah, I see. Thanks! And thanks for making the site!

Yw, if you have any ideas or bugs to report, you can use my forum topic: https://e621.net/forum_topics/40665. I did fix the issue you stated as well, those buttons should update properly now! You may need to purge cache by reloading the site with Ctrl+Shift+R to force update it.

Thank you all for the information. I’ll use the extension crocogator was talking about, and see how it goes. Thank you so much for your help!
