I want to add http://books-by-isbn.com/ to the plugin but I can't find where to add it
I've added a couple of sites in the past but can't remember how I did it. Clicking on Customize plugin, I only get an alert "doesn't need customization". The same with the "Open in Sigil" plugin. I remember I customized it by entering the path to the Sigil executable but can't remember where I did it. I guess my memory is not what it used to be |

Many thanks, Perkin
That's part of the problem. I don't have "customize" as an option. |

Many thanks, dwanthny ! I had an older version. Installed the new one and the "Customize" option is back. BTW, way better than before where, if I remember correct, you had to enter manually the search sites. Kudos to kiwidude ! |

Upgrading to the latest version did the trick. Fantastic plugin. I've also updated "Open with...". Also fantastic. |

I got a strange thing: I instaled the plugin, I restarted the Calibre, done the step add to context menu, but I have the Search the internet up, not like in the first screenshot. And if I press Amazon, it send me to the page of amazon, were they sell the book, and don't download the metadata.
Here a screenshot, hope you can help me. |

This plugin isn't designed to download metadata, there are other plugins that do that. It is designed to display web pages related to the book. People often do use it to populate metadata in Calibre such as covers, descriptions etc, but that is done by manually copy/pasting or dragging from the web page to Calibre. |
