I've noticed that for stories pulled from http://www.thewriterscoffeeshop.com chapter notes are not being picked up when they are included in a box. Is there a way you could also pick these up?

Example: http://www.thewriterscoffeeshop.com/...228&chapter=15

Thanks for that.
Unfortunately, there is still an error in it.
Example: The correct series url is http://archiveofourown.org/series/11410, but the link on title_page is http://archiveofourown.org/fanfic//series/11410. I have to click on the link and then delete "fanfic//" to get the right page.

Try the attached version. Please test it with other stories on thewriterscoffeeshop.com, too, and let me know how it works.

How would I install this version of the plugin to try it out? Do I need to put it in a specific place for Calibre to realize there is an update?

So there is. Thanks for catching that.

Here's a fixed version to use until the next release.

Thanks theducks for pointing out how to load the plug-in from a file.

JimmXinu - I tried the updated plug-in with 4 different TWCS stories. Author/chapter notes appeared in all cases.

Thanks for looking into this so quickly.

Great. Be sure to try it with some stories without notes, too. I'll include this in the next release if I don't hear anything else.

Attached is a new version with support for three new sites:
  • tokra.fandomnet.com
  • netraptor.org/fanfiction/
  • asr3.slashzone.org/archive/
I'd appreciate feedback on whether these sites work correctly or not--preferably from the people who requested them, but some were over on the google site, so we'll see.

That error appears for me when viewing the mobi file in calibre, not during FFDL download.

But it is caused by FFDL not generating a good mobi file (or indeed, at all) and also not reporting that fact. I've found a couple URLs on TtH that cause the problem, and some others that don't. A sampling of the 34 most recent updates looks like 5 had mobi problems.

I'm still looking at it, but for now I'll repeat my usual recommendation:

I recommend that everybody, including kindle users, use FFDL in epub mode and convert to mobi/azw3/etc. Epubs let FFDL update without downloading all the chapters every time, and FFDL's support for epub is much better.

UPDATE - 5 problems out of 34

@lumlydwt - This version should fix the issue you found. Please give it a try and let me know.

When I was fixing the issues with TtH and multiple authors, I broke chapter name(s) for one-chapter stories. Epub didn't really care, but FFDL's built-in mobi output didn't like it.

I've improved the mobi output handling to better notice and report issues, handle missing chapter names better, and put the correct chapter name in for TtH one-chapters.

UPDATE - Apr 11 2013 - Remove obsolete beta versions
