[Userscript] Better MDL Project

Hello,

Has the feature to see friends' ratings on drama pages been removed? It no longer appears for me.

 AURORA:

It doesn't appear for me either, just wanted to see if anyone else noticed it too. 😅

yes, it's gone for me too

Hello,

Has the feature to see friends' ratings on drama pages been removed? It no longer appears for me.

Not only that, other features aren't working either on the artists and drama pages. Probably because MDL did some update and Mio didn't update the script yet. 

There is also a new 'Undecided' list these days.

Hi guys, Just want to let you know, I resurrected this script. I did it from scratch, BUT I used the script @Mio_ made as a guide for things I didn't find any info about, like the "Friends Rating".

I still can't figure out how to implement the ratings from other sites, except TMDB, because every site uses different methods, but I think we can live without that; we have enough ratings here anyway.😅

This is still BETA, so you can find some bugs, probably. For example, the "Friends Rating" loads up slow at first, but when it saves the data in the cache, it's going to be faster after the 1st loading. It also doesn't show all your friends on 1 page; it has a page navigation button, and you can only see 5 friends per page.

I implemented a plus Hide/Show section for the comment section as well, and the script saves all 4 versions, so even if you reload the page, it's going to stay the same.

Pages like IU's are not done yet because there's a "Photos" section now on the main page. I'm not sure why, but you can't hide the filmography because of that YET. IU (이지은) - kisskh Also, I fixed the buttons under the profile pictures of the actors. It's smaller, so it looks better now.

There are 4 movie database links/icons under the posters now, that's the max because 5 or more wouldn't look as good. Now we have IMDB, TMDB, SIMKL and AsianWiki.

The "Original Work" is also working now and uses MyAnimeList as the first; then AniList and Google searches are other sources if you want to find the things the drama was adapted from.

This is all so far. I'm planning to implement more, the bigger one is the Setting menu where you can do many things.

Here are some screenshots.

And now, the code for Tampermonkey. Create a new script, copy this code, save it, and you're good to go.

Just install Tampermonkey on Chrome/Edge or Firefox, and then click "Install this script."

Chrome/Edge: Tampermonkey - Chrome

Firefox: Tampermonkey – Firefox

Please give me feedback if you can, but mostly about bugs. I don't plan to add more functions till I finish the rest I already mentioned.

Thanks. Have fun.

Looks like I already find a bug, not sure if it's 100% related to the script, but I can't see the icons properly when BMDL is on. If I turn it off it's all good. Not a big tbh. 😅

Soju:

Oh my God. BetterMDL's return was not on my 2026 bingo card!
You have worked hard, David!
Many thanks!

You're welcome.

Lol 😂 I was working on something similar too, but rather then a userscript I went full into creating extension and adding 1 or 2 extra features as for me the first userscript has some issue where better mdl filter in search won't load and and I needed to reload page until it is shown

In my google chrome extention build, it is persistent so changing pages keep your choices and many more small such tweaks to original code also hopefully I can add it to firefox extension too , will share few screenshots once I reach home.

The reason why I didn't share earlier was that I tried contacting original developer for clarity if the project is really dead or just on break but no reply

I think it's safe to say it's over, because the repo is archived and the funny thing is the last time Mio was online on MDL it was my bday.😂

I was thinking about Chrome/Edge extensions, but they always mess up something in the browser lately, so I skipped that.
