FanFic Filter is for those who don’t want to trudge through the archives when they only have a specific preference of what they want to see.
Filters can be created based on amount Chapters, Words, Reviews, Favorites and Follows. The user is free to create their own filters, whether it be the amount of words per chapter or review-to-chapter ratio.
Filters can also be created for the story summary, allowing the user to enter tags which they want to be filtered out. If the user wants all the stories with ‘slash’ in their summaries filtered out, they just need to create a summary filter tag for ‘slash’. Or, if the user so desires to only see stories with ‘slash’, they can use positive tag filters.
Character filters have been added, so the user can filter based on the characters and can choose more than the four character limit provided by the website’s default filters.
Endless scrolling has also been added, so now pages will automatically load and filter, without having to manually go through pages with sometimes only one or two results.
Feedback and suggestions are welcome to make this extension more useful and versatile.
*: Extension only shown when visiting FanFiction.Net.
**: Will need to refresh already open fanfiction.net tabs after installing/enabling the extension for the filter to work.
***: Users can now change settings; decide whether to show images or not, and change what type the default tag filter will be.
Good at first, but even after writing Naruto in the negative filters, there’s still stories that has it in the summary or title or both appearing in my story selection
doesnt workespecially in the fanfic.org search
I like the increased character filter function; however, it would be supremely helpful if there was also a deselect all button for it, especially for filtering fandoms with over 100 characters in them, like in Naruto or Harry Potter.
It would also be great if there was a function to filter crossovers.
Also a filter for pairings that aren’t listed in the summary but in the story character listing, i.e. if this story had [character A, character B] listed, filter it. Because I don’t mind some characters being in the story but I do mind them being paired.
Thank you for this amazing extension. It seriously saves me a whole lot of time of having to sift through garbage slash fan fiction and the like.
I’m so so so happy that this exists.
Your app is filtering stories and i havent even put in any filter tags.
This extension works well usually, bit sometimes it totally messes with page layout, and several times it didn’t filter stories’ list by ALL tags (some tags were applied, but not all of them). Oh, and I have troubles with story images – am I only one with this problem? Other than that, it is probably best fanfiction filter at this time.
Upd: Several pages on ff dot net were absolutely butchered. Disabled extension for now.
usefull for when I want to eliminate all stories with certain relationships and the normal filter is so much crap it wont do.
Pretty well done, only a few problems with it, however it doesn’t really do what I was looking for, but nice and useful none the less.
makes finding stories vastly less time consuming
Useful, just hope there will be more varieties of restriction options in the future, and, well, I hope there will be more efficient way to block all those slash fics.
Works great, but I’d love to see a endless scroll to make it easier to find fics with lots of restrictions.
Thanks for making this!
Edit-Awesome job with the endless scrolling. This is a huge upgrade over the standard filters.
It doesn’t work for me. I put a filter in (same way as the picture), but it didn’t actually filter anything or, at least, I can’t figure out how to get it to filter anything.
The tag feature isn’t working.
Does what it says it does. The interface is a bit complicated, and the extension could definitely use an auto pager or something, since with strict filters you can end up with no stories per page.
Other than that it’s quite nice to have!
