About

# Changelog - Twitch Steam Link

## Version 1.2 (Current Release)

### 🎯 Major Improvements

#### Dynamic Content Detection
- **Improved category switching**: Extension now automatically updates Steam links when switching between categories (Games, Streams, etc.) even when URL doesn't change
- **Enhanced DOM monitoring**: Better detection of dynamic content changes on Twitch pages
- **Smart link updates**: Links are automatically refreshed when content changes, ensuring accuracy

#### Fallback Search Enhancement
- **Google search fallback**: When a game is not found in Steam Store, the extension now opens a Google search instead of Steam Store search
- This provides better results when games are not available on Steam or have different names

### 🐛 Bug Fixes

#### Cache Display Improvements
- **Fixed Sample Entries**: Now correctly displays game names from cache using stored `appName` instead of reconstructing from keys
- **Invalid entry filtering**: Added validation to prevent caching and displaying invalid entries (like viewer counts: "106 viewers", "1.2k viewers")
- **Better cache validation**: Improved filtering of non-game entries in cache statistics

### ✨ New Features

#### Cache Management
- **Full cache list view**: Added "Show Full Cache List" button to view all cached games
- **Enhanced cache statistics**: Shows total entries, entries with links, and entries without links
- **Sorted cache display**: Cache entries are sorted by status (with links first) and alphabetically
- **Clickable Steam links**: Direct links to Steam Store pages in the full cache list

### 🔧 Technical Improvements
- **Improved MutationObserver**: Better handling of large DOM changes
- **Enhanced game name validation**: Added pattern matching to prevent processing viewer counts and similar non-game text
- **Better content change detection**: More reliable detection of content updates when navigating Twitch categories
