sidebar issue

[shinjikun10]

issue(s): sidebar isn't expanding when being hovered by mouse; auto 'Load More' also doesn't work

browser and version: Chrome Version 102.0.5005.115

steps tried to fix the issue: uninstalled BTTV; cleared cookies; disabled all twitch-related extensions(FFZ, BTTV, 7TV)

+1 I'm noticing this as well. (I didn't know this was a BTTV feature until I opened up a support ticket with Twitch and they told me hovering over the sidebar and having it pop out isn't a Twitch feature, it's a feature of a third-party extension.)

I have the same issue, the sidebar stopped auto-expanding on mouse over 3-4 days ago when I click the arrow to expand, the "show more" link doesnt work either browser: chrome 100 I tried with opera 84 too, same thing

Same issue and hiding featured channels doesn't work anymore either.

EDIT: details BetterTTV version: 7.4.29 Browser: Librewolf 101.0.1 (fork of Firefox) on Linux; tried various different user agent strings.

Same issue. First noticed this issue on Tuesday 6/14/22. Whenever I open Twitch in my Firefox browser and I hover my mouse over the left sidebar, nothing happens. I have to click on the Expand arrow which keeps the left sidebar fully open all the time until I re-click the arrow to hide it showing only streamer icons. First, I checked the version of my BTTV to see if it needed to be updated but I had the latest version already installed. Tried clearing my cache and cookies in my browser, closing my browser windows, and then reopening them to Twitch but that didn't work. Same issue. Tried uninstalling BTTV and reinstalling but that didn't work either.

My BetterTTV version is Version 7.4.29 Firefox version: Version 101.0.1 (64-bit)

Same issue, really crippling. Brave on MacOS

not sure how to fix this in the repo, but currently just running this script in the dev tools console to get functionality back

const sideNav = document.querySelector(".side-nav");
const expandBtn = document.querySelector("button[data-a-target='side-nav-arrow']");
sideNav.onmouseenter = e => {
  if (sideNav.classList.contains("side-nav--collapsed")) {
    expandBtn.click();
  }
};
sideNav.onmouseleave = e => {
  if (sideNav.classList.contains("side-nav--expanded")) {
    expandBtn.click();
  }
};

None of the sidebar features are working.

Don't think this is a BTTV issue, the auto-expanding sidebar was/is a native Twitch feature.

You can turn it back on (until Twitch decides to remove it completely) with FFZ in Debugging and "Twitch Experiments", search for vxp_left_nav_hover_logged_in and change it to treatment and reload the page, you'll get auto-expand back.

This feature is/was not a feature of BetterTTV.
