I just installed the goodreads sync plugin. I am trying to set it up and when I click the authorize plugin with goodreads button it does not launch the web script but jumps to the "have you clicked authorize" box. Well, I never got a web page to enter the authorization. I tried to go to goodreads and do it directly, but I couldn't see where to do it. Can anyone help?

Hi Jane,
What should have happened is that it should have launched a web browser with a page for you to click on. Do you have a default web browser configured? I know if you do a search IIRC there has been one other person with a similar issue, I think particularly on linux? What version of Calibre and OS are you using? |

Not authorizing...
I'm having trouble getting this to work with Calibre 0.8.2 on Linux. I had it authorized, but the Goodreads menu wasn't showing up. So I deleted my "Goodreads user" in the plugin configuration dialog and added a new user (with a different name). When I click Authorize Plugin with Goodreads, it pops open Goodreads with the following URL:
http://www.goodreads.com/oauth/autho...IWmhZG1bEiiSig which redirects to: http://www.goodreads.com/?oauth_toke...ig&authorize=1 Unfortunately, that doesn't display "Allow access" or anything like that. It's just my regular old Goodreads home page. What am I doing wrong? |

Try in your Goodreads account deauthorising the previous "application" to start again. You can do this by clicking on the dropdown arrow next to your name on the top right of the website, choosing "my account", click on the "apps" tab and then scroll to the bottom of the screen where you will see the "GoodReads Calibre GUI plugin" and click on the "Revoke Access" button next to it.
Now start the whole authorisation process over in the plugin. |

Did you try after a fresh restart of your pc? I am wondering if ie8 had crashed or was otherwise hiding from you.

Series info doesn't get uploaded. All metadata gets downloaded ok, but series field remains empty. Tried a bunch of books. Same result. Maybe there is some change on goodreads again...

@Noughty - did you mean the Goodreads metadata plugin rather than this Goodreads Sync one? Because the metadata plugin is still working fine, and this plugin does not get series data...

@kiwidude I wonder if the fix you posted for me manages to break IE8? The other way seemed to be working for the Windows crowd before. Maybe a test and if(windows) then (use_old_way) else (use_new_way)?

@mykel - afaik there are no outstanding issues to ie8 or anything else. The problems noughty had were for a different plugin caused by a corrupted calibre installation. Making the change I did was the right thing to do for all platforms, as it brings the code in line with how the rest of calibre works.

EDIT: After some more testing, I think something is broken on the Goodreads side. Be it their website or my devkey account used for this plugin. I have replicated the problem in a simple example completely outside of Calibre, so it seems unlikely to be related to any changes made to the plugin itself. I have chucked an email to Goodreads support so we will see how long it takes them to respond. Last edited by kiwidude; 05-29-2011 at 10:41 AM. |
