Hello Peeps,

v0.6 has now been released, which splits the category list and subcategory lists to avoid unexpected behaviour when there's a category/subcategory with the same number.

This release also hides by category and subcategory names as well as numbers. If you want to hide a subcategory by name you must include the category and subcategory separated by a back-slash; e.g.:

Books\Comics
Music\Hip Hop

Enjoy :)

Version 0.6 introduces a new bug:
Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.us
The problem is that, unlike in v0.5, version 0.6 cannot tolerate anything on the line after the number. So "1" by itself works, but "1 Anime" fails. This should be fixed so that the "feature" of being able to document what the numbers mean works.

A workaround is to of course not use numbers and use "Games\GameCube" instead of "5 GameCube".

It's not a bug, it's a change in the way it works.

v0.5 ignored non-numeric values while v0.6 can use either numbers or names, but can only have one category or subcategory per line.

So if you want to hide Anime, use either "1" or "Anime", but not both, and if you want to hide GameCube games, use either "5" or "Games\GameCube", but not "5 GameCube".

The subcategory exclusion parser cannot handle the subcategory "'Allo 'Allo!". (TV Shows\'Allo 'Allo!) It barfs on the apostrophes and prevents any special handling of the entire category. That means no subcategories in that category are excluded, and no private trackers are excluded.

Thanks - I've just uploaded v0.6a which should fix that.

v0.6a no long chokes on (TV Shows\'Allo 'Allo!), but it also does not exclude it.

Do you want to try it now?

That seems to have fixed that problem. Thanks for all the work!

Now the bad news: excludes no longer work on the home page, only the today/yesterday pages.

Alex I've only just noticed that you'd modified your last post. When you say excludes don't work do you mean subcategories? I'm in the process of totally rewriting the script so at the moment to make it faster so I can't confirm what you're experiencing.

The category/subcategory exclusion feature stopped working on the main page when you released the second version of 0.6a. But it works okay on the today/yesterday pages.
