I don't know if this is the right thread, but...

What happened to the "food eaten" page? Well, I was - as always - restocking food for my pet who's trying to get the gourmand achievement and... All the food is in 7+ pages! How can I be supposed to search for the eaten food? :( Do I have to use the "account search" page for everything? It will take me ages... I understand that in this way the page will be shorter and easy to load, but why not a page when you can see only the name of the foods? Now it's terribly hard ._.

@ MissHarry it was changed because people were trying to load thousands of items on one page, which was a giant pain in the ass. :/ It's alphabetized, so it won't take long for you to get used to which items/letters are on which page. This is a huge improvement from the old system. A text only version or a 'load all items' option would be nice for the people who don't think it's so great, though.

If you use Firefox, there's a really handy addon which lets you add various search options. Add to Search Bar.

I've got Subeta's Shop, Account, and Site searches in Firefox's search bar, so if I want to search for something in any of those I can just switch to the type of search I need and go. :)

Before quests got their own shop search buttons, I would highlight the item names, right click, and search. I still use it for Item Hunt, or when I want to check an item's price while restocking. I also use it to check my account for food eaten, books read, and whether or not I already have an item in one of my collections. It's really quick and easy. :)

There might be something similar for other browsers, if you don't use Firefox.

The collections and other pages which have been paginated could probably use their own search options though.


HONK!

yes you're right, and I understand that slow loading, but yeah an "only name" page would be fantastic ._.

unfortunately I don't use firefox, so I'll try to search something similar ._. but thanks for the advice :)

Yeah, I like not having to load thousands of images any more too.

Please, please don't ping me. Please.

Since this is not a suggestion, I'm moving your thread to a more appropriate forum.

Call me crazy, but isn't the "Account Search" option far easier to search for what foods have been eaten anyway? Even before it was changed, I certainly didn't have patience to wait for everything to load and scroll through to see what was eaten and what had not been eaten. I frequently missed things. Copying and pasting the item name into the account search is truly so much easier.

I'd also make the suggestion that maybe you could go to Subetalodge and go through the foods and add the ones to your wishlist that you do not have yet, then you wouldn't have to search, you'd automatically have the blue box around the items (I assume that works the same in official shops as well as other people's...).

Another way to keep track of the food your pet has eaten and not eaten yet is by using a checklist on SubetaLodge. :)

No, the WL box doesn't show up in official shops. It'd make RSing too easy.

Well, I used to (sigh) open the food page, stop the loading - the images didn't load, only the names. Then, with ctrl+F I used to search the item I found in the shops. It was easy .. I'd use the account search, but - for example - if I have to search what kind of gummy octopus I miss (XD) I have to search for them ALL; before, I used to search with ctrl+F "gummy octopus" and there was a list with every octopus I ate :D It was awesome ..

I use the account search when looking for food for Templeton I also place items on my wishlist if they are hard to find as a reminder. It takes awhile to get use to doing it but when things first come out I add them to my wishlist makes it easier since Templeton has eaten alot.

if the food item has Gummy Octopus as the first letters in the name yes, but if the first word in the Item Name is a flavor, you have to do a bit of scrolling.

You can save yourself some Account Search time by still typing in (say) gummy octopus, and then right clicking Open In a New Window. For each of those windows which are a null result, copy the name and Shop Search for it in that Window, and close the Windows that have a positive result. You are now set up to buy-buy-buy.

so I just come to a drawback to the multi page function. I want to mass update my subeta lodge food list, I have apparently fed her 1000 items since I last updated it. My foods are on 32 pages and I would love to view source copy/paste only once sigh... I got through 12 pages of that so far... guess I'll continue DX
