thanks for welcome,
I have been using this plugin and Goodreads sync for a while now. About half of my books are linked to goodreads and most have ISBN. I havent opened calibre for a month and when i tried today it always fails.
I have tried downloading metadata for books with just tile/author, with ISBN, with goodreads ID but it always fails. Even the books with metadata i had downloaded from goodreads before says the same thing. Goodread Sync works well.
Example:
A Crown of Swords - Robert Jordan - The Wheel of Time[7]
When i try to download both metadata and cover:
When I try metadata:
Spoiler:
