Latest version
Version 0.23
Released Nov 11, 2024 - 578.82 KBWorks with firefox 109.0a1 and laterVersion 0.23
- Fixed an issue with the new Feature Test function that had been added. Previously, the entire script was waiting for an image to load (which was from an external URL), potentially delaying the script unnecessarily. Now, the image is embedded within the extension, preventing this delay.
- Resolved a performance issue with the function that simplified NexusMods notifications. Previously, it scanned the entire site <BODY> to locate and display the notification, which was detrimental to overall performance. Now, it works in a loop without scanning the entire body.
- Added a fix related to broken YouTube thumbnails on the site due to an invalid parameter in the video block URLs. Now, only unavailable videos display the invalid video image correctly (this is not a feature that can be disabled, but if you encounter issues, please contact me).
- Now, if you press ctrl+f on a mod post page (posts tab), the browser will focus on the site's comment search box.
- The hover-to-view Profile feature on profile links no longer functions on next.nexusmods.com, as the site already has a similar feature.
- In the Mod description popup, additional information is now displayed, such as Requirements, Translations, Permissions, and Change List.
- Fixed an issue with Infinite Scrolling on the Trending All Time pages.
- Resolved an issue with Infinite Scrolling on the /Media pages of games that were not following the site's filters.
- Fixed an issue (hopefully) with the Mods Change List in the Mods Files tab that was applying twice if the user scrolled too quickly.
- Various improvements were made to the logic applied when the user scrolls the screen or moves the mouse to detect elements and activate extension actions, reducing unnecessary processes (such as calculating positions or changing specific elements without real need, for example, if the related function was disabled in the extension).
- Reduced the number of Games Per Second loaded by the improved Game List function from 500 to 200 per second. This ensures there are no CPU lags while loading the list of (over 2000 games) in under a second, maintaining smooth navigation on slower computers.
- The extension now waits for the site to be "free" of heavy loads before running, which may delay extension processes by a few milliseconds but ensures there are no initial lags on pages.

Version 0.22
Released Oct 26, 2024 - 544.67 KBWorks with firefox 109.0a1 and laterVersion 0.22
- Added a search bar to the Your Mods page (https://www.nexusmods.com/users/myaccount?tab=my+files). The search is only done in the Mod Titles and is automatically focused when the page is loaded. This item only affects the mods on the current page, requiring you to search again when changing pages (I can't add Infinite Navigation to this page because I can't test it efficiently).
- Fixed an issue with the "Hidden Mods" hide button on the page above. Previously, it hid mods that weren't marked as hidden as well.
- Image popup when using the mouse now shows the image in low resolution while loading the original image. This alleviates user impatience while the image loads. Also, the image border follows the color pattern of the current game and the mouse disappears when over the image.
- Video Popups now show the orange error message when trying to load NSFW content without success due to user filters on the site
- Added a Test Feature. NexusMods Devs is testing changing the way search works by adding a popup with the main content of the current game, so I decided to do this to make it easier to test in practice, it is a button that appears SIDE your photo at the top of the screen when you are on a game page, it is used to search games and see the main items of the current game such as Images, Mods, Collections and Videos and just click outside the PopUp to close it. Leave your feedback at https://t.maze.co/297136204 for the NexusMods Devs. This function is not available on the next.nexusmods.com domain
- Fixed an issue with the Image Viewer when Using the mouse on the images of Mod Collections, it now shows the popup correctly with the original image.Source code released under Mozilla Public License 2.0
Version 0.21.0.1
Released Oct 19, 2024 - 537.25 KBWorks with firefox 109.0a1 and laterSource code released under Mozilla Public License 2.0
Version 0.21
Released Oct 17, 2024 - 537.2 KBWorks with firefox 109.0a1 and laterVersion 0.21
- The number of views for Mod Blocks no longer loads on the site’s homepage. The extension requires a specific game to request data from Nexus, and since there are several mods for different games, this caused display errors such as Mods with incorrect view counts.
- Small improvements to the image popup when hovering over them. It now calculates the popup’s position before moving the mouse.
- Articles in PopUp when using the mouse now work on the site’s homepage (articles from the Mod Updates tab: https://www.nexusmods.com/?tab=mod+updates)
- On the site’s Games page, the extension no longer waits for the entire list to re-render (when the option is active) to load and show game details when hovering over a game block. The performance impact is almost zero, so it made no sense to save resources in a way that could lead to more than 2-5 seconds of unnecessary waiting for the browser through the `requestIdleCallback` API.
- On the Add Mods to a Game page (https://www.nexusmods.com/mods/add), I decided to redo the list more efficiently. Now, the list displays all the games one below the other for better readability. There is also a large search bar with auto-focus to search for games. The Custom Game Block Size feature now also affects the blocks on this page.
- Fixed an issue with Infinite Scroll on the mods page without a specific game (e.g.: https://www.nexusmods.com/mods/today/), where it was fetching the ID of the first mod found instead of the whole page, causing it to display new mods based on the first mod in the list.
# Note: Someone reported a bug related to mods from different games appearing in the mod list when Infinite Scroll was enabled. I believe the fix above is for you! :D
- Fixed an issue with Infinite Scroll for specific game mod pages that didn’t contain a required attribute, such as `/today` or `/thisweek`, causing the function to be disabled until an attribute was found on the page. Now, Infinite Scroll, when used on mod pages without a specified time frame (e.g.: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods), will follow the site’s filter parameters.
# Reminder: If you visit a page with the expected attribute, like: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/moretrending/, and change any site filter, such as Sort By, Infinite Scroll will CONTINUE loading content based on the default filter defined by the current page (in this case, the Sort By value for the More Trending page is 7 days).
- Fixed an issue with the "Always Show ChangeLogs" function that could cause too many requests to the change log lists, leading to temporary bans on the NexusMods site. ChangeLogs are now only loaded when the file is visible on the screen (and if the changelog link is available as always).
- Fixed an issue with the extension that could fail to notify about Mod File Updates if an error occurred during the process.

Version 0.20.0.1
Released Oct 10, 2024 - 536.51 KBWorks with firefox 109.0a1 and laterSource code released under Mozilla Public License 2.0
Version 0.20
Released Oct 8, 2024 - 536 KBWorks with firefox 109.0a1 and laterVersion 0.20 Changes
- Added a fix to the Edit Article Link on the Site (When you are reading one of your mod articles (for example, https://www.nexusmods.com/site/articles/125) and click "Edit Article Info" in the options, it will load the Selected Article information on the edit page as soon as possible via the URL attribute ARTICLE_EDIT=125, saving time. This option is enabled by default and cannot be disabled (I believe an option for this is unnecessary).
- Added a fix on the mod edit pages (nexusmods/mods/edit/?id...) for the Page Header. Now the page title, breadcrumb trail (like All games/skyrim/my mods/kratosidk...), "Save" and "View Mod Page" buttons will stay at the top of the page, following the user when scrolling down to improve accessibility. This option is enabled by default and cannot be disabled (I believe an option for this is unnecessary).
- Added a function to make the Options Menu of Text Boxes follow the mouse when clicking on the Text Box or using the Arrow Keys (very useful when editing an article or item with a lot of text). This option can be enabled or disabled in the Extension settings.
- The entire page at https://www.nexusmods.com/mods/add has been redone. The loading of the game list has been optimized to reduce CPU usage, and the options below it have been removed (since you are redirected to another page after selecting a Game). This functionality cannot be disabled. Let me know if you encounter any issues with it. This functionality only works on the page https://www.nexusmods.com/mods/add.
- Fixed a CSS issue on the main game pages (for example: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition), where the HOT MODS blocks at the top of the page could be slightly uneven due to the mod image size.
- Fixed a CSS issue on the site when the page was extended with the "Wider Website" option enabled. The background image now covers the entire screen, preventing a gray rectangle from appearing on the right side.
THE CHANGES ABOVE ARE ATTEMPTS TO IMPROVE SITE ACCESSIBILITY. IF YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS OR ISSUES, PLEASE WRITE IN THE COMMENTS.
- Added an option to Add Games to the site's favorite list when the Enhanced List option is enabled.
- Added Text and Attribute Filters to the Game List on the NexusMods game page when the Enhanced List option is enabled.
- Enhanced List has been improved; elements are pre-rendered and completed when they appear on the screen. The initial creation process for over 3150 games takes about 100ms without freezing the browser.
- Updated the FontAwesome version used by the extension to version 6.6. Some icons may look slightly different if you are used to the older version. I made this change because the icons in version 6.6 are more recent and better to use.

Version 0.19
Released Sep 28, 2024 - 524.15 KBWorks with firefox 109.0a1 and laterVersion 0.19 ChangeLog
- Added Hotkey to Endorse Images and Videos from PopUps (as long as it is possible to endorse) When hovering over an image and seeing its PopUp, you can press 1 to endorse or undo the action. For videos it is a little more complex than this because of the YouTube iframe, in this case, just click on the top of the PopUp (in the gray area) used to drag the pop up, and then press 1.
- Infinite Scroll now works on the Supporters Image Page (like https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/supporterimages/)
- Added option in the Followed Files settings to not update the files, this also allows users to add files older than 1 year. Use this feature if you want to use the extension as a File List only. With this enabled, the list will not show the Update Status of the Files.
- Fixed a small bug where Image PopUps did not work on Images from Your Own Mods. Now it also works on the Mod Edit page.
- Ignore Requirements PopUp now Works on Premium PopUps.
- Fixed a small issue related to the Add File to NexusMods Advance Button on the mod files page, it could sometimes render more than one button per file.
- Fixed an issue where the site slows down when clicking on a Download PopUp with the "Ignore Requirements" option enabled, this caused the function to loop infinitely. There is now a limit of 60 attempts to dismiss the popup before the loop is stopped (which occurs in less than 2 seconds)
- EXPERIMENTAL: Added option to Prevent external GIFs from playing (but they still load and play when hovered over) this function works in Mod Comments and Description. The GIF will still play and load normally, it will just be hidden and replaced by the first frame until the mouse hovers over it.
- Added Ability to save the current Popup image when pressing Ctrl+S (Works with hover popup images and popup gallery images)
- Fixed an issue where the Mod Name and File Name could be saved in the wrong order when following a new file.
- Translation changes when a File has no Updates available: Previously it showed as "FILE NOT FOUND ON NEXUSMODS" now it shows as "NO UPDATE FOUND". This happens when the file does not have an update due to a different name, when the author sends updates, but with the file under another name.
- Added Option to Leave Notifications in a Simpler PopUp on the website when performing an action, for example when Following a Mod, the notification will appear on the Right and not in a PopUp in the center of the screen. This option is Experimental, and I think it will affect normal popups as well, if you notice anything let me know.
- Option to Show Profile when hovering over a Profile Link, now works in the PopUp of the last 100 endorsements of mods
- EXPERIMENTAL: Added a new option in the Top Left of the extension's PopUp to measure the Download Speed and Time of the NexusMods Premium Download Servers (CDN). This buttoSource code released under Mozilla Public License 2.0
Version 0.18.0.1
Released Sep 20, 2024 - 510.96 KBWorks with firefox 109.0a1 and laterVersion 0.18.1 HotFix
Fixed an issue related to the Mods of the Month Page, which could not work correctly, the mod shortcut buttons were not working as they should due to mod blocks with missing items (mods previously deleted by the author) and this caused errors, the extension now also applies these buttons and other functions related to mod blocks only when the block is visible or almost visible on the screen, this ensures minimal impact on the page in this regard.
Version 0.18 Changes
- Added option to Hide Mod Status on pages, such as 'Downloaded' or 'Update Available'; they still appear when hovering over the mod block.
- Mini-filter for mods in search now follows the color scheme of the current page.
- Mod block PopUp buttons (Description, Gallery, and Files) are now slightly smaller and only appear when the mouse is over the mod block.
- Fixed more bugs related to mod PopUps that could load information for MODS with the SAME id but from OTHER games, depending on where the pop-up was triggered.
- Fixed an issue in the extension's Background Update Checker; previously, all files used an API request to check for updates, EVEN IF they were from the same mod. This was inefficient because the HTTP cache for the same mod requests could be reused to process and analyze new versions of other files. Now, it saves mod requests when you have more than one file from it in your Followed Files List and uses the request cache to check for updates. Afterward, the cache is cleared to avoid old information. This eliminates repeated requests that the extension made before, speeding up the entire process and saving API usage.
- Added option to Show Smaller Game Blocks on the game page.
- Added option to Show More Game Details on the game page, including details such as: Downloads, Files, Mods, Collections, and Game Genre.
- Added function to specify the size of mod blocks on pages to adjust the number of mods per row by setting a fixed size.
- Fixed a minor issue where the Hide Items option in the Description tab also hid the same items elsewhere (such as in the Logs tab).
- Identified and fixed an issue with functions executed when loading new content after the Infinite Scroll function, which could progressively use resources. It now also no longer affects page loading, waiting 300 ms before executing. If you experience slowdowns on a page while using the extension, please let me know.Source code released under Mozilla Public License 2.0

Version 0.17.0.1
Released Sep 12, 2024 - 504.41 KBWorks with firefox 109.0a1 and laterVersion 0.17.1 HotFix Changes
- Fixed an issue with the Extension where, when adding a new file, if it was updated by the extension’s background process (and not through the window), it would not generate the new "Size" value for existing files in your File List, and the files would not be displayed correctly unless you deleted and followed them again.
- The Floating Menu Option for the Mods Page now works across the entire site! Description and Name have been changed.
- Fixed an issue with the Article description PopUp that was showing options to edit and view comments, now it only shows the Article.
- Added an Option to Display Files in your Followed Files List by category, file, mod, or game.
- I received a message from a NexusMods Admin requesting the REMOVAL of the new feature from Update 0.17 that made it easier to download files without needing to visit the page, as it prevented users from seeing ads on the site. So, I brought back the old feature that loads the site normally. The extension feature still does this, but now it scrolls the page to the corresponding file, making it still useful.
- Some translations in all languages have been changed for better clarity. For example, "Followed Mods" is now "Followed Files."Source code released under Mozilla Public License 2.0
Version 0.17
Released Sep 11, 2024 - 419.37 KBWorks with firefox 109.0a1 and laterVersion 0.17 Changes:
- General improvements on how and when the functions are applied: the extension now acts before the page loads, applying changes more quickly.
- Improvements to Infinite Scrolling.
- Infinite Scrolling now also works on image and video pages for games, such as: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/media/today/ or https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/images/.
- Added a video PopUp when clicking on a Video Block.
- You can now close the Mod Files PopUp by pressing the ESC key (in most browsers).
- Fixed an issue where the extension's shortcut buttons (view gallery, files, description...) could appear where they shouldn't.
- Added a Mini Menu to enhance search (in the site's search bar). It allows filtering mods by endorsements, downloads, size, translations, and language easily. Available only when searching for mods.
- Mod File Blocks followed on NexusMods Advance now display the File Size in Bytes, KB, MB, or GB.
- Added a function to display a Copy Comment Link button in the Posts section of Mods (to share the current comment link).
- Fixed an issue with the "Show Profiles in a PopUp" function, where iterating over links with images resulted in an invalid URL.
- Another update to the image popups when hovering: now they are DEFINITELY always fully visible.
- In the extension's Followed Files list: fixed an issue with the Posts Tab where NexusMods emotes and YouTube videos would not load. They now work correctly.
- Added an Experimental Option to delay the loading of YouTube videos until they are visible.
- The option "Ignore Mod Requirements and Automatically Click the 'Slow Download' Button" has been redone. Now, it literally loads the direct download link of the selected file. If it fails at this stage, it will click the buttons automatically as usual. This is a significant improvement as it no longer requires going to the download page, saving even more time.
- Added an Experimental Option to Download a File Update using a Mod Manager (if available). This option appears in the followed file blocks on NexusMods Advance, below the "Remove File" option and is in testing. It connects and generates the download link quickly without needing to visit the site and opens with the latest Mod Manager. This option does not appear if the file is marked as OLD or NOT FOUND by the extension, as no updated File ID was found, requiring a manual visit to the site.Source code released under Mozilla Public License 2.0

- Fixed problem with the Gallery in PopUp when loading images, before it did not load all pages, now it works correctly.
- Fixed an issue where the Mod Gallery Popup would sometimes appear off-screen
- Changelog injected by the "Always load Patch Notes from Files in Description" function now takes up the entire horizontal space of the page, improving readability.
