Show book details error
Hi, I've been getting following error message when trying to show the book details:
calibre, version 0.8.11 ERROR: Unhandled exception: <b>UnboundLocalError</b>:local variable 'link' referenced before assignment Traceback (most recent call last): File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\actions\show_book_details.py ", line 33, in show_book_info File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\dialogs\book_info.py", line 39, in __init__ File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\dialogs\book_info.py", line 131, in refresh File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\book_details.py", line 29, in render_html File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\book_details.py", line 146, in render_data UnboundLocalError: local variable 'link' referenced before assignment The error appeared also in 0.8.8 version which I previously had. I tried updating it to 0.8.11, then uninstall completely and install 0.8.11 again but the error still shows. Thank you for any tips. |

Start Calibre Note down the PATH to your Library (hover over 'Click to Open' in the book details pane. The Library is the part before the Author) You will need this info later. ALL configuration settings will be lost. Preferences: Miscellaneous. Click "Open Calibre Configuration directory" LEAVE the explorer window OPEN Quit Calibre. Un-install Calibre from the control panel Now Delete the contents of the Configuration folder that you had left open reboot just for grins (and to be sure everything is clear) Instal Calibre 8.11 (temporary disable you A/V if this possibly interfered). Use the existing Library path that you had noted. |

The problem comes from having an empty value in Preferences -> Look & Feel -> Book Details -> Default author link template. This is arguably a bug, although it never occurred to me that someone would want to have no link template.
Put a value in the box. The default is http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search={author} |
