Looks like something about the Address archive or search function is broken @TryNinja.

When I tried to search any Bitcoin address ever posted by this user, no result shows up

When I try a reverse search using one of the addresses ever posted (bc1qc4s30nvgsl9g08e3llarcta6q7az30crrwqhw3) - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.63550795
No result shows up

I reported a bug before and that has not been fixed yet. I just noticed the same bug exists when searching for posts.
Thanks, should be completely fixed now.

On the home page (https://ninjastic.space/)
When I download a PNG file of those graphs and try to view it, I get an image of grid lines with a dark background and nearly invisible figures. The graphical lines can not be seen at all
Here is one of the images I upload for clarity of the problem
This function never worked as it should, it's just there because I used a lib for the charts that has it enabled by default. Tongue

If I search for the posts made by bitcoin, the search engine gives me all the posts made by the users who have "bitcoin" (separated by whitespace) in their username.
If I search for the posts made by Bitcoin SV, Learn Bitcoin or Bitcoin Smith it doesn't show any post.

Well, I have been facing this for a while now. Ninjastic is a great tool to search for something I posted months ago. I guess it worked for me before. Or I don't remember If I tried to search my posts. A few weeks ago, I made a post on a service board but I didn't want to search that post by page by page, Instead, I tried to filter the board and the posts I made on the Service board.

Then I noticed it does not show any posts. I was clueless but it never came to my mind that I should report it. Thanks for bringing this hosseinimr93, I hope TryNinja will have a look and fix it if possible. Ninjastic, super notifier bot, bpip, and loyce.club becomes a part of our forum life. It makes our life easier.

There seems to be a problem with the color scheme. The data is there, but it blends in with the black background. Try downloading the SVG graphic and converting it to PNG or JPEG format locally. Or, you can use the clipping and screenshot tool to capture the graph.  At least until TryNinja fixes the problem on the site.

Fixed, thanks. All data linked to the same user id should show up.
It works now, thank you TryNinja for quick fix Wink
Reminder to everyone to refresh your Ninjastic pages with f5 or delete browser history, if you still don't see addresses shown correctly.

Also fixed the issue where searching a profile with username was case sensitive.
Good to see this fixed also, I had issues with that several times.

Now, when I enter his username (old or new), or his UID number, I can still see his profile fine with all his previous posts.
Problem is that all addresses he ever posted or mentioned are now gone, and there is no history, so is there a way to fix this?

Before:

TryNinja - ok
Tryninja - profile not found
tryninja - profile not found

Now:

TryNinja - ok

Hi there TryNinja.
I think I noticed one bug or flaw for Ninjastic Space website, and I will try to explain it below.
Most members know that Ratimov changed his user name to Symmetrick some time ago, before his account changed hands.
Now, when I enter his username (old or new), or his UID number, I can still see his profile fine with all his previous posts.
Problem is that all addresses he ever posted or mentioned are now gone, and there is no history, so is there a way to fix this?

I do not know about that. However, for the experiment I did, Ninjastic only displayed my unedited posts. Maybe ninjastic doesn't record edited posts or maybe ninjastic takes longer for edited posts to be recorded.
It is, but only after 5 minutes. So if you edited your posts so many times at least 4x before that time (5 minutes), then probably the last thing it will record is the post content after 5 minutes.

- Check the unedited/archived posts along with their edited version made up to 5 minutes later.

Exactly. Basically, the site only does two scrapes: one when the post is made, and another 5 minutes later.
Everything that is done between 1 second and 5 minutes is not recorded, only what exists in minute 5. Any edits made after minute 5 will not be recorded.

I think there are cases where OPs would make sense to do more scraping, even if it was through solition. But, I understand why this is not the case.

That's right.  Bitcointalk has so many posts that scraping all of them continuously is not feasible and  you're right - With millions of new posts popping up all the time, it's impossible to keep track of every single edit made on every single post. Essentially, any edits made between scrape A and scrape B would be missed.  And anything edited after the most recent scrape would be missed too.

He probably grabs them the same way I did - from the recent posts on the front page.   I couldn't figure out a way to detect an edited post to re-scrape it.

Becauase you originally posted "res" and only after edited the post with your address.
https://ninjastic.space/post/63032633
The scraper currently doesn't check addresses on edits.
I did testing on this. It turned out to be true, Ninjastic only recorded the address in the initial post and did not record the address after editing.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.63210828
Will ninjastic only record the initial post? Ninjastic won't record if members edit it multiple times?
Is it only true for address only? I mean, I know we can check content also, if anything was changed and look for the changes. But what if we edit it like 10 times. Will it record it all? Or will it just show the difference between the initial and ending part? The middle edits won't record. If that were true, anything can be written in the middle and not get caught with it. I guess I'll have to test it to prove my theory. Who knows! Tongue

I'm guessing that ninjastic only records the initial post and doesn't record subsequent posts if they have been edited. This can be used by members who do not want their addresses recorded by Ninjastic, so they can add addresses by editing posts

I think so because ninjastic only displays original posts and does not display edited posts. But I've never experimented with it. You can try

I have noticed something with Ninjastic. I joined the YoMix signature campaign on October 21, posting my BTC address. So the issue is that I can't find my address when I search for it on Ninjastic. There aren't any favorite addresses either. I don't know how many days it takes to update the Ninjastic database. So I'm a little confused, as a week has passed since my post. Maybe you can give some clarity to it.
