Description
...The Way Things Were...TMStatus - Retired
With the changes of to deviantART's deviation URLs, this GreaseMonkey script is now all but redundant.
DescriptionThis GreaseMonkey Script is designed to restore the v4 functionality to the URLs used to visit deviations.
Links to ".../deviation/[DEV_NUMBER]" display the deviation at Standard/Zoomed-Out Size.
Links to ".../view/[DEV_NUMBER]" display the deviation at Full-View Size.
This was done because, I kind of liked that functionality in da
InstructionsIf you are experienced at all this, then just access the version you want from the links above in the "Version History" Section.
- Get Firefox (If you haven't got it already)
- Install it, of course.
- Get the GreaseMonkey Extension
- Restart Firefox (to Initialise the Extension)
- Click HERE and select "Install"
- Enjoy!

Might have been a recent change to the dArchitecture - you're the first to report any problems.
Are there any error messages, or the like? I may look into this when I have some free time, which, unfortunately, will be in about a month's time.

Hmm... I don't know if this is because of the script not working, me screwing something up or what, but whenever I click on the full view link, the picture just disappears entirely. I know it isn't my settings or my plugin that are the problems, so I was hoping this might fix it... no such luck

Hi Mcmacaddie... That's alot of "M(a)c"...
This script is simply designed to restore the old functionality whereby when you visited a URL which was "www.deviantart.com/view/123" the Full-View was automatically triggered, and visiting "www.deviantart.com/deviation/123" would display the preview of the same deviation.
It's actually quite a redundant script compared to most of my Greasemonkey Work.
I would recommend Uninstalling the "DeviantART - Full View Fixer" script and instead install the "DeviantART - Full Viewer" script at [link]
That, newer, script will default all visits to Full-View and you should then be able to toggle back to preview using the dA-provided buttons.
If you still have problems after installing the Full Viewer script, let me know.
Thanks
Luke

Actually, I tried that... and all it did was make the picture automatically disappear. I've just got my account settings so that it'll display the picture in full view automatically now... but when I click on the zoom out option, guess what happens? *lol*
Thing is, I know it isn't my Java plugins, since they're up to date, enabled and working fine. It's either my browser or something to do with the site itself that's the problem.

Hi,
There's nothing at the link any longer. Is there a new version coming out?
Cheers!

Hey Mate,
All fixed, I simply made a spelling mistake in the link (forgot an underscore). Should work now.
Cheers

Thanks, it installs OK now
Unfortunately, my click-full-view is still broken in FF 2.0.0.3 or 3.0a4 - no image shows... even if I "view source" and go straight to the image URL
1.0.x-1.5 work OK.
It never did work here at DA or with any Simple Machines based forum (SMF). Full view works everywhere else though.
Odd.......
Cheers!

Update:
I think that is a FF bug rather than your script. I reported it as a bug and let's see what the powers that be say

Just a heads up, but in Firefox 2.0 all a person needs to do is click the script link. No right clicking is needed.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, ta for the heads up.
I spotted that myself, and I will probably revise the descriptions for all my Greasemonkey deviations as FF2.0 becomes the standard.

Great script. I've been missing this function since dAv5. Thanks

I finally got firefox to try this and it works. This was one of my major concerns with V5 and this surely does fix it. I thank you.

I don't know... Did you?

i think sooooo. but nothin worked. i am sad.

Hmmm... One possible cause - go into your account settings and ensure that "Show Deviations as:" is not set to "Zoomed In" as that, I think, overrides the operation of this script.

good idea. Would I have to reinstall it??
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
No, shouldn't need a reinstall
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well it still doesn't work.

OK, I'd suggest the following:
- https://www.deviantart.com/view/37476624/
Should come up Full View - https://www.deviantart.com/deviation/37476624/
Should come up Standard View
If not... Let me know.

whoa it worked! thanks!!! uhh can I turn on my other scripts now? 0_o
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Turn them on, one by one, and retest after each one is switched on.
When it stops working, disable the last script you enabled, and continue testing.
Then, whichever one is disabled when you get to the end will be the culprit.

oh yeah um....does this work on the flash stuff too? cuz I got it to work on my pictures. Would I have to re-submit some of them with a preview image??
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Dunno about that.
It works fine for me, with all submission types.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Let me try to see someone's newer flashes to try it. I gotta get home first. Right now I'm at skool.

Love the piccie!!!
Don't have Firefix anymore. Should really re-install it. Getting used to v5 though...I just want pics to show up with poetry.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hahaha... Well, parody is my strong suit.
I love my Firefox... But, then again, I tend to dislike M$ a fair bit. Still I reackon dA is better this way.
Fingers crossed the poetry/imagery issue gets fixed for you soon. That is one thing I do not think I could fix with a Greasemonkey Script.
