I already imported my times into cubedesk, and am using it currently. My only problem is that there is no avg of 500/1000/2000/ect. This is a big con for me, so hopefully the option gets added soon

csTimer released

Yeah, lots of people have asked for that release but I'm not sure when he would add it.
I opened a ticket months ago on the code repo on GitHub. The dev wasn't active at all since more than a year. He might have lost interest in coding or maybe he suffered something. Who knows. Only thing preventing me from switching to cubedesk yet is missing mobile support.

The code is all online but it is so hard to read it's not even worth trying to fix it
Ok I actually rechecked cubedesk first time in weeks. By now mobile works (mostly) Some features seem missing but timing and most important stuff already works!

They have a discord with all the updates so you don't have to scrimmage through everything new.

Today I wanted to clear space on my PC, so I deleted my .tmp files and emptied the recycle bin. Now, I wanted to cube a little so I went on csTimer, and all of my times were gone. All of my preferences and sessions were there, but the times were deleted. Is there any way to get them back?
If you have no manual export or were linked via the cstimer server. No. Cstimer stores data in browsers local storage that you probably wiped with that cleanup.

I use csTimer like any other cuber but just yesterday, I open the app, because I have the app installed since you can do that from Chrome, but all my statistics and solves were gone.
The Sessions I had created were there along with their respective Puzzle types but the solves and stats were gone, Is there any way to revert this, how do you make a backup for csTimer so I can stop this from happening again?
Also, are there any account based timers out there so i can have my solves saved on the cloud?

you can do that with cstimer but cubedesk exists

CubeDesk does it automatically, while for cstimer you have to export it to a server each time.

This is off topic but Cubedesk also looks cooler than the other timers(imo) and has more features. By the way if you manage to get your times back on csTimer you can import them to Cubedesk I think.

CSTimer has an export times function, although I'm pretty sure that if you don't delete cookies you should be all good.

Alright then, thanks for the tip

Cstimer is down for some people, and working for others. Does anyone know why, and if it will be fixed?

No idea. For now I'd say we wait a bit and hope it'll be back up soon. Else creating an issue here https://github.com/cs0x7f/cstimer/issues might help get the developers attention.
I just noticed that https://cstimer.net/new/ works. All my times are there as well.
Since there haven't been any code changes in ~2 years it's probably the same version as the normal link (it says 2020.05.02 in the about tab), but I'd keep an old backup just in case.

Hm, that one doesn't work either.
As far as I can tell:
csTimer is hosted on Cubing China (cubingchina.com)? csTimer's DNS records seem to be fine; the problem seems to be coming from Cubing China's end.
… And ah, Cubing China's domain literally just expired.
(Edit: Also, it's just past midnight in China right now, so earliest it'll get fixed is probably in ~12 hours. Unless one of their admins is still awake, I guess.)
