Can't find auto-downloaded .puz files

Awesome program!

I just found the option to automatically dowload a lone puzzle. It looks like it's working but I can't find the download.

orion browser

Hi, thanks for creating the scraper. It's truly great! I just switched from Chrome to Orion browser (based on Chrome) and the scraper gets stuck on "loading." I tried turning off the tracking blockers and all that, but no dice.

I can go back to Chrome to grab my puzzles, but I thought I'd let you know. Thanks again!

Scraper available for older versions of Firefox and Opera?

Hi Jeff,

I'm an old retired guy whose PC is still running XP and those old compatible browsers. I read on Crossword Fiend that "Crossword Scraper" is available to download and install as an extension to browsers so that we can print copies of puzzles to take with us anywhere.

Is there a link to those extensions?

Recent Scraping issues

Is the NYT making it so that it can't be scraped with this extension anymore? I got the error message a few times but was able to get it to work after restarting chrome until the puzzle loaded the previous splash page that didn't cause the error. Love your extension, hate the NYTXW app, crossing my finger that there's a workaround soon.

Convert NYT PDF to PUZ

Please tell me how I can convert the NYT PDF file to a PUZ file. Until recently there was a .puz link on the page.

Thanks,

How does it work?

Hi, I've loaded the chrome extension but the sample puzzles are not clickable, and neither is the settings button. There seems to be no directions how to use it? ie once it's loaded, what are the steps to activate it? Thanks, Keith
