    Not for me it's not. Still stops working after I close Chrome. 

    I don't particularly like Firefox but I'm using it to browse the store cos the add on does work in it.

    The plugin has been completely broken in Chrome for weeks for me. It acts like it isn't even installed.

    Does the uninstall/reinstall workaround still work for you? 

    Only until I close Chrome and reopen it. Then it doesn't work again. Uninstall/reinstall is not a viable solution. It is too much trouble to reenter all the settings every time it has to be reinstalled.

    You don't need to reinstall everything.  Only re-enter the email address and passcode. All the other items are retained.

    I have a routine each time I start work: 

    (1) Go to Daz Deals page on Chrome webstore (saved icon in menubar)

    (2) "Remove from Chrome" Daz Deals. Then immediately "Add to Chrome" Daz Deals.

    (3) Open Daz Store. Go to my Wishlist first. Then go to Daz Deals page via Bottom menu item in the same menu bar. Enter Email address and passcode (both drop-down entries because my PC remembers them) and press SAVE.

    (4) Start shopping again. All done in 30 seconds or less - so no big deal once it's a familiar route.

    I am at a different computer now, using latest Chrome browser and the plugin works flawlessly, I suspect, that it has something to do with the fact, that there are multiple accounts on this browser and the plugin gets uninstalled and reinstalled by default, maybe that is why it works for some people and people with a single account on their browser have to do the install and reinstall trick.

    Is there a reason I have started getting multiple copies of the same promo email? The one today about this NFT nonsense arrived four times in my inbox and I couldn't see a difference in the four at a glance. I didn't look too carefully because I'm not interested in the promo.

    I just looked and I got four copies of the latest promo email as well.

    They are all different. Daz kept making slight changes, replacing the banners every time. There were four new banners up for that sale yesterday.

    The emails still work well for me, but I use Opera and the filters for WL/addons/required etc, the pricing history and the grey-out for bundles don't work for a few weeks now.

    Are any of the addon features (the ones you see on the web when browsing the store) working? It sounds like the addon is not enabled at all. Check to make sure it is. If it seems to be enabled, then disable and the re-enable it.

    If this has something to do with changes Google has made to Chrome, I sure hope they get Chrome fixed soon. It's getting tedious having to remove and install DDBA over and over again. It's a great extension though so consider me a glutton for punishment since I NEED it.laugh

    Thanks for your fast reply!

    I did, and I disabled it, cleared the Browser cache etc., restarted my computer, and enabled it again, and it doesn't work.

    What's your Windows build? The only difference between my two machines (outside of hardware) is the OS, and DAZ-Deals works perfectly on CoreSingleLanguage 1909 (18363.1379) but only partially on Home 2009 19042.985.

    I was using DAZ Deals for several months and some days ago, it didn't work anymore :( I had to uninstall and reinstall it, and every day I have the same issue :( Please do you have an idea why it could happen ? I could check the console to see if there are JS issues or other.

    I don't think it's related to my browser (Vivaldi) because it wasn't update for weeks.

    So maybe that's the reason. If you happen to have a machine with an older build around, you could try and see if DAZ-Deals would work on that.

    So now that store search is different, you can no longer search by % off, hide PC items and view what you already own. They basically disabled everything when you are searching for a specific thing. Any chance those features can be brought back?

    Unfortunately, all machines in our home are up to date.

    Those are all provided by the DAZ Deals extension and the extension is broken, non-functional, on your machine.  For most people removing the extension (extensions, click on the water drips to the right of the DAZ Deals extension entry and select remove) then re-installing it from the Chrome web store (bookmark the page - you will need it again) fixes the problem, for a while.  I think for a small number of people that doesn't work (I believe one or two people reported this earlier), for somewhat more people if you shut down chome and restart it the extension will be broken, for even more people a machine reboot will break it and for a diminishing number of people it keeps working longer.  I used to be in the latter group, now every time I reboot I have to re-install the extension as well as, possibly, every time Chrome updates itself.

    Completely uninstalling and re-installing from Opera store did the trick for me now :)

  • Mustakettu85Mustakettu85 Posts: 2,933

    More statistics: finally had the necessary sleepless night to update this machine to 20H2 (19042.985, again, it's not the latest build), and DAZ-Deals still works.

    Just so you're aware, in the background we're discussing the possible solutions/workarounds.

    I to have found it not working for a while, but found it mostly working again. Quick re-install of the plugin resolved it for me on brave.

    For the things I used it for, the price charts are back, very useful. I've found the sorting by % has a problem appearing with the new UI, so this is mostly with searches. Everywhere else it's fine, so my 800+ wishlist it works fine.

    Good for now, thank you.

    Do you know if we will be getting a vendor follow option? I know we can simply filter by vendor, but it would be great to have a favorites list.

    We had that as an experimental feature, but it never got into the public build because at this point I don't know of any reliable way for getting the complete list of the daily new items.

  • TugpsxTugpsx Posts: 738

    How about just the simple "Follow" or add vendor to Favorite

    What would you like that to do? The original idea was to be notified as soon as they release a new product, but at this time, such info is not available reliably as far as I'm aware. 

  • TugpsxTugpsx Posts: 738

    Correct, but say im browsing the store and i come accross asset from Dreamlight, kara-pitat and acharyapolina it would be good to tag the vendors. i know i could simply add the asset to my wishlist and your plugin will notify me when it goes on sale. Also yes while in the wishlist there is an option to filter artist but not one to sort by artist. Even an alpha sort will be better than nothing.

    Price history not working in Chrome as of this morning. Same issue in Edge. Tried re-installing the plugin to no avail.

    It's showing up fine here--Kiwi Browser on Android--maybe try toggling that option off and back on as well as checking your ad block tools to make sure that iframe isn't being blocked.
