Sort NovelUpdates series finder results by tag count
Description:
This userscript significantly enhances the NovelUpdates Series Finder page by introducing a global sort by tag count feature. Unlike previous versions, this script now sorts search results across all result containers on the page, ensuring a comprehensive and consistent sorting order, especially on pages with multiple result sections or pagination. It displays series with the most tags at the very top across all containers and series with the fewest tags at the bottom, distributed across the containers.
Additionally, this version intelligently preserves any existing elements within the first search result container (like filter controls or informational text) while clearing and re-populating only the search result boxes themselves. Subsequent result containers are fully cleared and re-populated with the sorted series.
A floating "Sort by Tags" button is added to the bottom right of the page, allowing you to re-trigger the tag-based sorting at any time after the page has loaded, for example, after applying filters or navigating pages.
Features:
.w-blog-content.other containers on the page, providing a unified sorted list.How to Use:
Recommended Complementary Userscripts:
For an enhanced NovelUpdates experience, we strongly recommend using this script alongside:
Pagetual: This userscript enables automatic infinite scrolling, eliminating the need to manually navigate through multiple pages of search results. When combined with the Tag Sorter, it creates a seamless experience of scrolling through globally sorted results.
NovelUpdates Tag Filter: This companion script adds advanced tag filtering capabilities, allowing you to further refine your sorted results based on specific tags. The combination of sorting by tag count and filtering by specific tags provides ultimate control over finding exactly the type of novels you're looking for.
Using all three scripts together creates a powerful, customized NovelUpdates browsing experience with comprehensive sorting, filtering, and navigation enhancements.
Customization:
Look for the following section in the code (usually near the top):
// ========================================================================
// USER CONFIGURATION - IMPORTANT!
// ========================================================================
// Set this to 'true' to enable console logging for debugging,
// or 'false' to disable console logs for cleaner console output.
const enableLogging = false; // <===== ADJUST THIS TO 'true' TO ENABLE LOGGING, 'false' TO DISABLE
// ========================================================================
// END USER CONFIGURATION
Change const enableLogging = false; to const enableLogging = true; to enable console logging. To disable logging (cleaner console), set it back to false.
Save the script.
Refresh the NovelUpdates Series Finder page.
