    I added the scripts listed in the forum to get started and greasemonkey and they are all enabled but some work and some do not. The Block script, script that shows if you have done the hit before, and time tracker all are not showing up. The expanded header and all the earnings are working fine. Any ideas why some work and some do not. Thanks

    Running multiple scripts will cause issues sometimes. Disable them all and start adding them back one at a time until you find the problem

    edit: to nail down the exact 2 giving you the problem when you are adding them back and find the one that causes the problem remove them all but that one then start adding them back again. When the conflict appears again you got the two scripts figured that wont play nicely. Then it is up to you which to use or not to use .

    Could you be more specific?

    If you are referring to the MTurk HIT DataBase as the "script that shows if you have done the hit before," you need to update the database. You must do this manually. This script does not fetch data automatically (that I know of). Once you have updated the database the HIT's you have done will show up as a green block instead of a red/pinkish block. Keep in mind this script initially goes back only as far as 45 days, but will keep data indefinitely if you continue to update it.

    If you are referring to the Block Individual Hits script and are running the script above, you no longer need this script (sorry sas), as the MTurk HIT DataBase script will also do this for you. You could run both I guess, but the Block Individual Hits resets if you clear your cache where the MTurk HIT DataBase will be around forever (as long as you do not delete the database).

    For the timer, yeah not sure on that one. Perhaps trying to uninstall and reinstall it? IDK someone else might have to help on that.

    Best of luck.

    This is the one i cant get to work. I installed it on another compute I was using and it worked great but wont work with this computer I am using now. Would this be equivalent to the MTurk HIT DataBase?
    :Extended HIT Search: This script allows you to search through HITs you have previously done, on specific days. If you've ever felt the anxiety of wondering whether or not you had done a reposted HIT before, this is a script you certainly need.

    I believe the mturk hit database is the update of that script

    ok thanks, now how does it show you that you have previously done a certain hit? Sorry I am a little confused. I just dont want to do a hit I have done before but dont want to have to go back and look at each day on hit status to see if I have done it. Thank you so much!

    Remember that Extended HIT Search only shows last 45 days.
