Is there an option, or can there be an option to reveal all spoiler tags on a page? Its kinda annoying to be reading through a TVIV thread where I've watched the latest episode but everyone is being very good about spoiler tags and there's like 3 every single post.

I can only add so many user notes and then it just stops working.

I see there was discussion above about something similar?, but was there a solution?

You have to disable using sync storage for user notes. When using sync storage, there's only so much capacity for having notes. Unfortunately they won't be synced anymore, obviously.



I think it's a good idea to back them up first, before changing. I don't remember anymore if switching from sync to local resets them

Probably missing something obvious. I'm migrating from Chrome to Firefox, and I think everything but the majority of user notes made it. Only 8 of those did.

-After using store local, is there local file I can just copy between browsers?
-I can't recall, is there a way to view the notes I've created to see how many dumb jokes or quotes I've tagged?

You don't copy a file, in the old browser you go to

SALR Settings -> Miscellaneous Commands -> Copy JSON String Settings (then copy the text in the box)

and then in the new browser you go to

SALR Settings -> Miscellaneous Commands -> Paste JSON String Settings (then paste the text in the box) -> Restore Settings (new button just below the paste block)

And you can also just paste that into a text editor and look through the mess for all the user notes

Forgot to reply earlier in the week.

I've done this a half-dozen times combined before and after your reply, but Chrome's version never has the user notes in the JSON block.
But they're gone forever now anyway. It just went from 58 notes stored in sync to the 8 developer ones that are built in. Didn't restore anything that time, but I must've just miscliked while verifying what to type in this window.

Oh well, no combination would make them show in the copy window. For comparison, they were instantly visible in Firefox when I made one a few minutes ago to see where they'd be stored in the text wall.

Yeah a long time ago I had SALR eat my usernotes too. I still don't know if it was because I "stored local" or "stored sync" more than once or something, or what. I thought they would merge, but I think it overwrites, possibly even cuts and pastes? I honestly don't know. I just know they can get eaten and then you'll never get them back.
