Hi. Sorry, this might be a stupid question. But I can't figure out how to use this extension to mute certain tags on pixiv. Can you explain how to do it? I installed Utags too, but where exactly I add these tags?

Oh, this script is not for muting by artwork's Pixiv tags. It is instead to straight-up "mute" the artists themselves.

With UTags, you can assign tags to any artist, so you'd just need to give them "block" or "hide" tag, and this script will ensure any works from them are properly muted in nearly all Pixiv pages.

Attempting to write a script to mute by the artwork's Pixiv tags is unfortunately a bit too complex, last I checked. Some pages do not have the artwork's Pixiv tags embedded somewhere deep in the codes, so the script would have to always make additional queries to Pixiv to fetch them. Pixiv doesn't like you making too many requests in quick succession, so a script that does that will be somewhat prone to getting timed out.

Thus, I found it a lot more efficient to just mute the artists themselves, since all artworks will always have their artist link somewhere. Plus, some AI artists aren't exactly keen on tagging their AI arts properly anyway.

Ahhh. That makes sense. Thanks for the reply!

As of v1.6.x, this now supports blocking by Pixiv tags.

It doesn't work on certain pages (e.g. Rankings page) due to the reasons I explained above, but most pages now do have the tags available in the deep codes, without having to make additional network requests. So I figured it's usable enough in most cases.

I'm still new to this and I wonder
how do you block pixiv tags now?

Check the info tab. There's also a sample config linked.

Look at the Settings section (at the very bottom), for guide on how to access Storage/Values tab in Violentmonkey and Tampermonkey.

so I copy paste the sample config of blocking AI arts into storage tab of Tampermonkey and
It was unabled to parse it
I'm not sure where it went wrong

If you just copy-paste the sample config, it should work, or at least it does on my end with Tampermonkey.

If you've changed anything from it, find an online JSON validator, and check which lines/columns aren't formatted properly.

So... it is valid
but for some reasons it doesn't seem to work on my end
I don't know how to put it in

Oh, that's why. You aren't supposed to just copy-paste the sample config as-is, but instead replace the entirety of your existing config. The script will then re-add the other keys as appropriate after you refresh Pixiv.

If you want to preserve most of your existing config, find "PIXIV_BLOCKED_TAGS" key in it, and only adapt its values to the one in the sample.

ah I see
thanks for the instruction gonna try it now

If I wanted to block off other tags, I just write the code like that and puts it below what part of the code?

Yes

how do I block one tag only?
