⚄︎ Perchance

This is a Lemmy Community for perchance.org, a platform for sharing and creating random text generators.

Feel free to ask for help, share your generators, and start friendly discussions at your leisure :)

This community is mainly for discussions between those who are building generators. For discussions about using generators, especially the popular AI ones, the community-led Casual Perchance forum is likely a more appropriate venue.

See this post for the Complete Guide to Posting Here on the Community!

Rules

1. Please follow the Lemmy.World instance rules.

2. Be kind and friendly.

  • Please be kind to others on this community (and also in general), and remember that for many people Perchance is their first experience with coding. We have members for whom English is not their first language, so please be take that into account too :)

3. Be thankful to those who try to help you.

  • If you ask a question and someone has made a effort to help you out, please remember to be thankful! Even if they don't manage to help you solve your problem - remember that they're spending time out of their day to try to help a stranger :)

4. Only post about stuff related to perchance.

  • Please only post about perchance related stuff like generators on it, bugs, and the site.

5. Refrain from requesting Prompts for the AI Tools.

  • We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (text-to-image-plugin and ai-text-plugin) e.g. "What is the good prompt for X?", "How to achieve X with Y generator?"
  • See Perchance AI FAQ for FAQ about the AI tools.
  • You can ask for help with prompting at the 'sister' community Casual Perchance, which is for more casual discussions.
  • We will still be helping/answering questions about the plugins as long as it is related to building generators with them.

6. Search through the Community Before Posting.

  • Please Search through the Community Posts here (and on Reddit) before posting to see if what you will post has similar post/already been posted.

Character Chat is down, Is there a way to export my data? (self.perchance)

Basically the title. I can't access the actual AI-Character-Chat. I just wanted to download my characters.

I found the localDB in chrome, but I'm having trouble exporting. The exporters on the extension store don't work.

Thanks!

What do you mean "can't access"? Can you describe it more or provide screenshots to it? Can you also look into the Dev Console (F12 or Ctrl+Shift+J to open) and see if there are errors popping up upon opening/loading the page?

This isn't my post, but this is happening to me, too: https://lemmy.world/post/22468056

I can access it in other browsers, so I'd like to export my data and import it elsewhere.

Have you created an account for the website? Logging into an account will remove the Ads that might be causing the problems as said in the Dev's comment on the post you linked.

Were you able to see the load log: finished <number> on the Developer Console after loading the page? See picture:

Note that you need to open the Dev Console first before reloading the page to refresh the console and see the whole loading log.

I tried with both logged in and out. No difference. My render thread stops count stops at 5.

Chrome crashed yesterday and every since I haven't been able to access only the Character Chat. Everything else works. Also opening up character chat in incognito works too. That's why I'd like to export my data, then I'll clear chrome cache.

Hmm, the other linked user has the same stopping point, and also mentioned a Chrome crash. I wonder if a recent Chrome update has made IndexedDB more sensitive to crashes. Can you try two separate things:

  1. Reloading the page again now. I've just added a feature - you should see an 'export' button come up after several seconds when there's an error like this, and that button allows you to do a data export which bypasses some of the "layers" to just grab the raw data. It's possible that may hang/fail too, since I don't yet know how "deep" we'll need to go here. But also make sure you wait several minutes, and watch the console (like you screenshotted above), because if you've got a lot of data, the export could take a few minutes. If you see any errors in the console after you click the export button, please screenshot them.
  2. Can you please try temporarily turning off all your browser extensions? I notice some extra logs there which aren't caused by Perchance, and they could be a confounding factor that it'd be useful to eliminate as a cause.

Thanks @[email protected] for helping get the initial debug info!

Thanks for the response! I attempted but it didn't save anything.

I don't know if this is any help, but I was having a hard time opening the data store with code that I found online. I know its there, but it will keep saying there was nothing there.

Also, I'm not having any problems using the chat in incognito mode.
