[Quick Fix] For Indicating Paid Content on Homepage
0
So at the time of this post the homepage doesn't indicate what is a paid book and what is free to read, since it have caused me to click on a book and then get disappointed quite a few times, I decided to make a script. This is how my solution look like, where I have made it quite clear what is paid content without being to intrusive.
You can use the script with something like Greasemonkey for firefox or Tampermonkey for chrome. Since it is so short I have posted it in the quote
// ==UserScript==
// @name Fakku fixing
// @namespace Meako
// @description dealing with problems on frontpage
// @include https://www.fakku.net/
// @include https://www.fakku.net/page/*
// @version 1
// @grant none
// ==/UserScript==
//document.getElementById('side').style.display = 'none';
//document.getElementByClassName("right").style.display = 'none';
var x = document.getElementById('content').getElementsByTagName('a');
for(var i=0; i < x.length; i++){
if(x[i].href === "https://www.fakku.net/publishers/fakku"){
x[i+2].style.backgroundColor = "blue";
x[i+2].innerHTML = "You need to have purchased this book";
}
}
If you don't know what greasemonkey or Tampermonkey is a quick google search should give you the answer, hope it is helpful for someone other than myself until Fakku get around fixing it ;)

Personally the fact the publisher was FAKKU indicated well enough that it would be paid content..
But this does look more pleasing to the eye and certainly would make it very clear.

The problem was you have to know that is the case, it wasn't until today I found out that could use publisher to indicate it, since I never looked at the publisher for a manga/book. Still it didn't draw a lot of attention, and even less when I was using my mobile (smaller screen), so thought I should make a script to make it more clear ;)

But personally I like knowing who the artist/translators are so I can keep an eye out for their content and maybe support them for their effort, so the fact that the paid content is labeled FAKKU published just seems like it's a little obvious as to what it is imo, considering where we're viewing it. ^^
Then again, if it disappoints people that they find a new upload only to be told it's paid-content, I don't see them being any happier in saving the 5 seconds it took to try to read it before realising what it was.. Just my 2¢!

...I never look at the the publisher/translator since it never had any meaning before, fakku mainly only have one version of a release, so taking the time to look at that also never crossed my mind, and it makes abosulote no sense to expect new user or any for that matter to do that and being able to know that if the publisher is Fakku then it is paid, when there are no separation or tag before for different kind of publisher. Our said it in another way, the only one who know this is people who have actually used the store, and will therefor not have a need for it.
The wasted time on a miss click is much higher on a mobile device, where it is also especially hard to read information such as publisher, since the information density is so high for the screen size. It is really bad practice, ex if a site like Google stopped indicating what is add, they would be taken to court where they would either be fined or completely blocked if they didn't fix it immediately.
To make it easier to see it for another PoV: User ask for a burger, but gets a hotdog, since that is what they call hotdog in this store, she was just never informed of it. If the User had know from the start this shop didn't have burgers, she could just ignore it and never entered it.
