[TOOL] Booth Searcher – Chrome Extension
-
I understand—search functions can indeed put a significant load on the server...
To be honest, I’ve also found it harder to post lately, especially with emoji displays included, and I wonder if it might be better if not everything had to be automatic or updated every single time for everyone.
(It would be really helpful if there were an option, like having search-only-run-when-a-button-is-pressed mode enabled by default, for example.) -

I’ve actually had a slight sense of something being off for a while, but it was only recently that I became sure of it:
When your extension sends searches to the forum, it seems to be performing not only URL-based searches but likely keyword-based ones as well, right?What I suspect is happening is that every time a single product page is opened,
multiple search requests are being sent to the forum’s server—probably without any delay between them.I fully realize that what I’m bringing up isn’t exactly a fun topic
—in fact, it might understandably dampen your motivation as the developer.
This wonderful extension, which we use daily and has been such a great help to all of us, is something I’m deeply grateful for.
I’m also aware that raising this might even risk the possibility of you deciding to take it down… and that’s the last thing I’d want.But if it’s at all possible… would you consider adding some kind of toggle feature
—something that’s easier on the server, like an ON/OFF switch per a way to control the request frequency?Prof.serenith, thank you so much for always helping everyone with such generosity.
Thanks to the extension you developed and shared with us, we’ve been able to connect and collaborate so much more easily.
I truly appreciate your kindness from the bottom of my heart.![[TOOL] Booth Searcher – Chrome Extension_7412711.png](/assets/uploads/files/1757745717915-tool-booth-searcher-%C3%A2-chrome-extension_7412711.png)

@serenith Thank you for your response.
While turning the extension on and off can be a bit cumbersome—and unfortunately, it also disables the handy download link skipping feature—I imagine most users probably wouldn’t bother switching it off regularly. Because of that, server load likely won’t change much moving forward, which is a bit disappointing to consider.
Still, I want you to know that your work has brought so much happiness to so many people, and for that, I’m nothing but grateful!
Thank you for everything you’ve done.

@serenith I probably should have mentioned this is about the rewrite for boothplorer since it is very useful on that website. They posted about it on X a little while ago.

while the plugin got archived, it will still work if you keep it installed? (unless ripper breaks the search backend, ig?)
thanks for the gr8 work, this lil guy made assets hunting easier >w<@giiiuls For what it's worth, on Firefox it still works if you manually re-enable it. It's likely not to get anymore updates, but until it breaks it can be used.

Aww this was my best helper...
