I'm not sure if this is a bug or what, but there's something unexpected going on.

I've set up a test for you to see here: https://perchance.org/sxvghvl53i#edit

I've got an $output that creates HTML, which contains the code [a.html], but escaped so that it's not processed. So: \[a.html\].

This is then injected into the page, and actually processed correctly, replacing the contents with the a.html value. But then calling update() on that element either does nothing or throws an error of one kind or another.

It says that a_elem is undefined, when it should have already been injected into the page.

Honestly, I've been fiddling with this test for a while now and I can't quite pin down exactly how it works or what this works and that doesn't or what order things are being processed in... But some sort of shenanigans is going on.

If this is all working as expected, I'd love to learn how it works. But if not, consider this a bug report 😅

I prefer to leave "auto" off while coding, as I do a lot of stuff before I want anything to run, want to avoid running half-written code and getting errors, etc. But then I have to go and click on the "reload" button all the time to test.

Saving reloads the app too, but I don't really want to save all those versions just when testing. It would be great to have a shortcut to reload. Perhaps CTRL+R can be overriden? Or some other shortcut--it's all good.

It would be so useful to be able to search the current gallery by text--including the title, prompt (and whatever else there might be). That's about all I have to say about that I guess 😅

There's some very strange behaviour that happens when you use CTRL+F to search for text on a page.

For example:

• Go to: https://perchance.org/useful-generators
• CTRL+F or use your browser's page search functionality.
• Type in image.

The first "image" text on the page is in the "images & sprites" heading. But before that, it finds 4 instances of "image" which... seemingly don't exist? Are hidden or something? Looking at the code of that generator I have no idea. Only then does it find any of the real instances of "image" that are on the page--three of them.

This problem happens all over the site on all sorts of generators by the way, it's not unique to that one. It's just an easy example.

For me personally this has been troublesome when trying to search on a documentation page for some particular function name--things like that. Or when there's a very complex generator with a ton of buttons I want to find one that does the thing I want to do--but instead I have to read through every one of them, because the page search doesn't work correctly.

By the way I'm using Chrome 126.0.6478.132 (Official Build) (64-bit). I haven't tested on other browsers, but as a lot of the big browsers are Chromium-based I'm guess at least those will have the issue.

We can put CSS in our generators that works with the user's dark mode setting on their device. But it would be great if that was built-in to the default styles. Doesn't have to be anything fancy, this would do for a start:

@media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) {
  body {
    background-color: #000;
    color: #aaa;
  }
}

It seems some of the templates may override such styles and make the body white and such anyway. So maybe that's something to look into as well.

If you set it to allow permanently, there is no way for the user to turn the block on again without fiddling with code. Even if they set it to an hour or whatever, they may want to turn it on again early, which they also cannot do.

I was thinking maybe if it detects it was an nsfw image, it shows an extra button which lets you block nsfw images.

I talked about this on Reddit, and found a solution with some help.

I made the following (somewhat) easier solution that less technical people can use. It uses a bookmarklet.

Make a bookmark, call it what you want. Set its address to: javascript:url="https://image-generation.perchance.org/embed"; if (location.href!==url) { alert("Opening to correct page. Run this again."); open(url); } else { localStorage.okayToShowNsfwUntil="0"; alert("NSFW setting reset."); }

(I would put a link you can drag into your bookmarks, but this forum doesn't recognise "javascript:" addresses.)

Note that this will run JS code in your current page. though you can see what it's doing if you're worried about that and decide if you want to use it or not.

With the code formatted more clearly:

url="https://image-generation.perchance.org/embed";
if (location.href !== url) {
  alert("Opening correct page. Run this again.");
  open(url);
}
else {
  localStorage.okayToShowNsfwUntil="0";
  alert("NSFW setting reset.");
}

If you're not in the right place it opens a window to image-generation. And if you are in the right place, it resets the okayToShowNsfwUntil flag for you.

I hope this helps people in the meantime. But it would be great if there was something built-in to image-generation so people don't have to find this page and make the bookmarklet and all that.

Tried to sign up many times. I get sent a verification code (sometimes). Paste/type it in and it always says it's incorrect. So frustrating, as I'd like to create some generators (and have them actually save).

Can anyone help me? Or point me to how to contact the right people about this?
