does anyone know how it works with cloud servers like iCloud, Google Drive or DropBox?

Hello! I also ran into the issue where an index.html file was not generated. I found one reproducible bug and filed it here: https://github.com/joyrider3774/Playnite_html_exporter/issues/7
(Also supported you on Kofi - thanks!!)

Hey all! First of all, big thanks to joyrider both for plugin and for helping with the recent update.

Since now exporting to single file (without game details) is fully supported, I've decided to share my own template from April 2022.

You can find the template and necessary details (how to use, changes made, etc) on github link here:
https://github.com/luxzg/Playnite-HTML-export-templates/commit/c5c52779f0df86307d178d35986da76b72031952

You can also check the sample (from my own Playnite library) here:
https://github.com/luxzg/Playnite-HTML-export-templates/tree/main/samples

In short, this template (with latest add-on changes) will export your whole library in literally 2-3 seconds (tested on almost 3k games), and you will get a single self-sufficient index.html (that you can rename to whatever) that works fine when being sent to mail, WhatsApp or whatever.

Besides removing the sub-pages and links to those, this template also includes original quick-links (alphabetical links to jump through your library) but in addition it allows sorting all included columns ascending and descending on a click.

Included columns are: Name, Play time, Community and Critic scores, Release date and Date added, and source (Steam, Expic, GOG, etc)

I've made this so I can quickly export my whole library and send it to myself to WhatsApp, so if I'm without PC I can just open this single file and check if I already have a game and similar. Sort was added so when showing list to friends and such, that I can quickly get to latest games added, or filter the games with highest scores, and such.

On my ~2 year old midrange phone my huge sample file with 2764 entries loads in 2-3 seconds, I can use the list in portrait mode, and when sorting is enabled I can sort by these columns taking again 2-3 seconds to sort the whole list (so if you have huge library like me wait a couple seconds after tapping column headers). My ~6 year old PC sorts this in ~1 second.

Hope it helps at least one person Big Grin

I'm attaching two screenshots:

one showing original view (when file loads)

and one showing example sort (descending on community score column)

So I was attracted to this add-on by the grid view. Is this no longer included in the templates ?

=== (old post)

[attachment=2437]Get this error message (see screen shot). Where do you set it ?

OK never mind, its in Add Ons --> Settings.

Ok, so let me be clear : none of what you put in this topic page does result in the same things we can see in you videos nor http://htmlexporterexample.joyrider3774.xyz/grid/

I just have a flat text list. I want THUMBNAILS ! Moreover, when I click on a game to display its specific page, there's no images a all in the page. I've double-checked in the folders generated by your plugins, and THERE IS images in them.

How do we display things in a grid view ?

We can't add a /grid/ to ours URL and expect your project to display anything. We can only call the index.html. So how the hell are you doing this on your "example export" in the first page of this topic ? You give links, and you don't even realize that's absolutely not possible for others to do the same.


Quote:I have provided 3 templates myself a GRID based view, a LIST View and a TEXT Only version.

No, you absolutely not. Where are those templates supposed to be ???
There's just a link to a .PEXT in your download list. When installed and going in the options in Playnite (F9), there's nothing to say "export in grid view".

And if you say to me "go in the github", first of all, this is not our job to do extra-steps over installing a .PEXT plugin, and secondly, I still don't see any trace of the word "grid" in this damn page : https://github.com/joyrider3774/Playnite_html_exporter/tree/main/templates

Wake up please, we're not telepaths and supposed to read your mind...

Omg, I just found that you have to select "default" in the "template" column in the F9 options, instead of "default list text" that is selected... by default when you open the panel.

FACEPALM -_- Could have avoided posting a message if the author have made his job of explaining things correctly...
