New Features

  • Filters can now be disabled on certain pages. A new "Options" section has been added to the dashboard where you can disable filter functionality for the following pages:
    • Daily Deviations Page
    • Forum Pages
    • Notifications Page
  • Quickly create user, category, and keyword tags from any deviation. This is accessed by right-clicking on any deviation link/thumbnail and clicking the new "Create Filters from this Deviation" menu option.
    • NOTE: The old quick hide icon (x) in the upper-left corner of thumbnails has been removed in favor of the new context (right-click) menu.

New Features

  • Eclipse Support. DeviantArt Filter now supports the new site (a.k.a Eclipse). It also supports the "classic" site fore users who are not yet using Eclipse.
  • New Management Page. The management page has been completely rewritten using more modern frameworks.
  • Filter by Title. Tag filters have been replaced with keyword filters, which apply to both tags and titles for all deviations.
  • Quick Filter Tag Context Menu. A new context (right-click) menu is available on all tag links; use this to quickly create a keyword filter for the linked tag.
  • Faster Metadata Lookup. DeviantArt Filter v6+ uses faster APIs to load metadata (tags and categories) while you browse, so filters should apply sooner than they did in v5.x.

Removed Functionality from 5.x

  • Options are missing. There are currently no configurable options for DeviantArt Filter v6.0.0.
    • Placeholders: Placeholders cannot be disabled for the new Eclipse site, as the Eclipse layout calculates grid positions for each thumbnail, and removing an item from the grid breaks the layout. The ability to turn off placeholders may be re-implemented for the classic site in the future, but there are currently no plans to bring it back.
    • Placeholder Colors: The colors for placeholders cannot currently be adjusted, but are instead hard-coded for each site theme (dark/light/green for Eclipse, and classic).
    • Metadata Caching: DeviantArt Filter v6.0.0 does not currently cache metadata like v5.x did; if metadata caching is re-implemented, the corresponding options will be brought back to allow users to disable/configure the caching behavior.
