I assume wait weeks is based on number of holds divided by number of copies? I'm new at this but so far I'm getting the impression that nobody returns books - my holds always seem to take the full 21 days to bump my place in line... |

The wait-in-weeks is only an estimate. The average loan period is estimated to be 2.5 weeks since some people return books early or have a shorter loan period set for their account. |

Well, I've got my borrows set to 7 days and I always return them as soon as I'm done with them if it's earlier than that, so at least some of us do return books.

I try to remember to return next time I'm on my computer but sometimes forget for a day or two. If Amazon supported returning right from the Kindle I think a lot more people would return promptly instead of just letting them expire...

Identifiers not showing up in details after update...
Hello,
I just updated the Overdrive plug-in. I keep up with each issued update. I'm using it on the latest Calibre 2.64 (updated from 2 versions prior). Now the identifiers field will not show in the book details. I used those generated links all the time. I checked all of the following:
The problem still persists. I recall having this problem a long time ago when first installing Overdrive. Did you make any changes behind the scenes? I'm checking here before reporting a possible bug with Calibre. |

The only thing I can suggest is restarting calibre in debug mode [Preferences drop down -> Restart in debug mode (Ctrl+Shift+R)]. Access some books that should show links in the book details panel and exit. A log will pop up. Check for any error messages. Possibly another plugin is interfering. |

No problem here either FWIW. 2.64 and PI 1.43.0. ID's still display for previously searched books, and when I searched a new one it populated and displayed the ID's.
My only other PIs are Import List and Reading List, also win10 AU if that matters (I see it getting blamed for a few glitches on other forums)... |

@jhowell,
Well, no need to debug. I did a PC restart after some Windows updates, and now they show again. Go figure.. I'm just glad it works as this has become core plug-in information for me in Calibre. Still, I will keep that debug step in mind in the future. It didn't even occur to me this time. Thanks! |

When I tried to search from one of overdrive's library, I get this result: ---------------- ERRORS WHILE SEARCHING ---------------- Signing in to PPL: Sign in error: : Please fill out the captcha. Get http://pas-gdl.overdrive.com new OverDrive site layout detected for PPL Get https://pas-gdl.overdrive.com/account/sign-in Get https://pas-gdl.auth.overdrive.com/a...ibrary&signin=[redcated] Signing in to PPL (Pasadena Public Library) Post https://pas-gdl.auth.overdrive.com/library/login?[redacted] Data password=[redacted] Signing in to PPL: Sign in error: : Please fill out the captcha. I don't need to fill out captcha on the website to login. Is this fixable or just outside the realm of this plugin? |

(I attempted to support this in the plugin, but because I do not have an account with any of these libraries I was unable to test it. I will revisit this once a library I use changes over to the new website design. OverDrive has a larger roll-out planned for later this year.) |

and the search is this: Spoiler:
I hadn't seen it before. |

Amazon, Axis 360, Hoopla and Scribd all recently changed their websites in ways that break the plugin. I am in the middle of making some other significant changes to the way the plugin works. It will probably be a week or so before I can make a new release that fixes the problem with Amazon.

I started using Calibre to catalog my physical books before moving to e-books. Because of this, I used the "amazon" identifier for the physical book, and I still do so, while I use a "mobi-asin" identifier for the Kindle book.
Because of this, I can't use the "Set amazon identifier..." option. So, how about a tweak to allow us to use any identifier for that option? Keep the wording of in the "options" dialog the same...just change what identifier is set if there is a tweak. Thanks. |
