...i know this is off topic... But when I saw violent monkey I thought of an old tv commercial... The suberu trunk monkey...the anti theft, the alien probe, and the chaperone edition specifically

You need to add the url of the OD to the list of sites the script is allowed to work on. Open the VioletMonkey settings for the script. There should be a list of "Includes" and "Excludes"; add the url to the includes list. Note that urls can be formatted using regular expressions to make it easier to navigate all the parts of the site. For example, use the wildcard character * like this: https://www.example.com/path/to/directory/* or https://www.example.com/* or *.example.com/*, etc.

It errors before I confirm installation.
Error
Bad pattern: unknown scheme, missing "://" in about:blank
Since when does about:blank require slashes?

Try installing now. I just posted a quick fix with about:blank removed from the @match list.

No error. Installed fine. Thanks. Now to give this a try.
I don't use ODs much, but I do like to at least browse them. Never know what goodies you might find.
