Good idea!
Question: I've been debating something. If you'll notice, each section (radical/kanji/vocab/level) currently operates independently. If you move between sections, you've gotta press the corresponding sequence of buttons to hide/unhide and randomize. I was debating still having the buttons at the top of each section, but having them affect everything on the page instead of just the section that follows a set of buttons. Would you prefer it that way?
Question2: Would you prefer that it save your last configuration, and automatically hide and randomize using the same settings as your last page visit?
I think (in your little gif video) that this looks very cool and handy indeed! Especially with the ability to toggle burned/unburned.
To answer both of your above questions... Yes and Yes.
All the features are useful so if you decide to split the update into two scripts, people will want to download both of them. Therefore, just keep it within one script. looking forward to it. Maybe something like self -paced wanikani as a name
rfindley said...But I haven't uploaded the update yet. It's a pretty significant addition to the functionality of the script -- and it more than doubled the code size -- so I wanted to ask for opinions on whether to proceed with uploading the update, or release this one under a different name.
[I also realized Ethan has a script with very similar name, so I was thinking about changing it anyway... not sure what name to give it, though.]
I'd love this. I have Ethan's self-study script installed also but have it disabled, since whenever I enable it, it automatically converts what I type into kana during reviews (yes the meanings, not the readings) I haven't tested much beyond turning every script I use off and on again until I found the culprit, so I can't say for certain if it's another script that messes with Ethan's script. I also use your (self-study) script and the item marker script for kanji specifically, just after I learned them. (before the first review, ideally). It would be awesome if this all somehow would work together.
I’m now thinking I’ll install this script tomorrow afternoon to only show all my burned items, and practice some kanji writing! (And do extra recall on them too, hiding the English.)

Personally would love to see this update to the script :) Though if you decide to release under a different name, up for that too!
It seems really interesting, especially with the review add on. I haven’t tested it yet as I doesn’t have that much to study on except for what wanikani already reviews me on but it seems like it could be useful later on. It’s very nice of you to develop an release all these scripts that improves WK bit by bit.
Does the old functionality still exist and this is just an addition? I think it’s pretty neat, but I mainly see myself using the basic (old) functionality. Mostly because it’s pretty fast and doesn’t require me to type anything I guess some stuff would stick better with “proper” reviews, but I like the more sloppy way for my “in between” studies But I can see it being very useful for burned items (where there won’t be any “proper” reviews coming up anymore) so it’s definetly cool stuff anyway x)
As both ways are meant to be used for additional study, I think it would be fine to include it in the main script and don’t have it in a seperate one.
I love this script, so I’ll add my two cents to your questions.
1. Similar to sumsum, I hope the test format will not replace the current functionality. Although these mock-up tests are neat, I really like the ability to have a quick recap. 2. I actually like that you have to toggle the buttons above each section (radical/kanji/vocab), because I am usually only reviewing kanji or vocab and it annoyed me a bit with the previous one I had to scroll up each time to toggle them.
Thanks for your hard work Rfindley P.S. I never realized your name is an anagram for friendly , but it suits you

The spell check when typing a meaning in English seems very strict (to the letter I think). Is there a way to adjust the tolerance?
You must be in the wrong thread. This script doesn't have the quiz feature yet, so I'm not sure what script you're using. Maybe Ethan's, which has similar script name.
Haha it took me an oddly long time to figure out the “Pairing: blank blank” text was clickable and I could disable it. This really is quite a beautiful addition, no issues so far, thank you for making this.

Just wanted to thank you, I made a lot of use out of this today :)
Glad you like it! I'm getting a lot of use out of it myself :-).
Thank you so much for this ! I am in a difficult position with my reviews, and I was almost losing the will to continue. Your addon made me study my kanji, and I’m feeling much more enthusiastic about the whole thing. So thank you again ! Really !

Great! I'm so glad it's helping with your motivation and enthusiasm!
Thank you so much! I feel that this gets rid of the last and hopefully final barrier I feel that I have with wanikani. I feel my toolbox is now complete.
I guess some stuff would stick better with “proper” reviews, but I like the more sloppy way for my “in between” studies
