I don't know if this is possible currently, but is there a way to put a review link at the end of a chapter? That way I could easily just tap it with my Kindle and quickly write a review (after logging in with the Kindle browser). I mainly use fanfiction.net if that information helps.
Also, as always, thank you for your continued development and efforts for this great plugin. |

Also, ffnet doesn't have review links as such on chapters anymore. They have a box right on the chapter page. There's a more conventional link on the m.fanfiction.net version, but it requires a storytextid parameter that FFDL isn't saving. But with the introduction since then of additional format customization, there is something closer. FFDL does keep each chapter URL internally. It's not terribly difficult for me to include chapter url in the available parameters. Attached version does that, allowing something like this: Code:
[epub] # valid: ${chapter} ${index} ${number} ${url} chapter_end: <p class="skip_on_ffdl_update"> <a href="${url}">Chapter ${number} URL</a> </p> </body> </html> That at least takes you directly to the chapter. Quote:

Hi there, I wondered if there's a way for me to edit how Anthologies are default named? Meaning if I wanted to prevent the addition of 'Anthology' on the end of the title or change it to another word, if that's possible. I thought it would be in the personal.ini setting but I couldn't find anything.
Thanks, and thank you very much for this plugin. The best thing to come to ebooks since calibre itself I say |

I've considered it a couple times, but I never came up with a solution I was happy with. I'd like to use the replace_metadata feature, but the anthology metadata is collected together after that step is done and is in a different form internally by then. Plus, if you change the title of an existing anthology book, FFDL won't add the "Anthology" back on if it's updated. So we're really only talking about new anthologies. I've attached a new version that contains what I think might be a reasonable compromise. It adds a new ini parameter that will be used for new anthology names that you can change: Code:
[defaults] ## Uses a python template substitution. The ${title} is the default ## title of a new anthology, <series name> in the case of a series, or ## the first book title otherwise. This is only applied to new ## anthologies. anthology_title_pattern:${title} Anthology Quote:

Using FFN Favorite list
Hello all
First thanks for the SW works quite nice. Question: Is there e possibility to import the URL's through the FFN favorite list. Mine is quite extensive (about 700) and it is quite hard to do it manually or for every item one at a time Thanks Thomas |

Not off of the usual ffnet author page, no.
But you can using the mobile page(s). Change the www.fanfiction.net to m.fanfiction.net and click the Fav: Stories link. Then you can use the FFDL Get URLs from Web Page feature. m.fanfiction.net splits long lists like yours into pages, but IMO, you shouldn't be launching several hundred downloads at once anyway. |

Aha! I bet you'd hoped you'd heard the last of me! After a long hiatus of everything working perfectly, I've managed to find another weird obscure little problem when downloading stories from FiMFiction. There's a workaround and it's super rare, so no biggie, but I figure this might reveal some sort of underlying problem that could be worth dealing with.
http://www.fimfiction.net/story/96607/ and http://www.fimfiction.net/story/98175/ both reported success when I downloaded them (they were listed among the "good" stories), and the text of the story was properly turned into an epub, but then when the library actually updated they were marked as ffdl_failed and most of their metadata columns weren't populated. But when I tried them again in a fresh blank default library they downloaded just fine. So I did some trial-and-error testing to see which particular difference between my library and the default was causing the failure, and I found that it was the "update calibre cover when updating metadata" option. When it's checked the problem occurs for these stories, when it's unchecked everything works correctly. Neither of these stories appeared to have a cover image associated with it on the site, but FFDL's logs report that it's downloading cover images and in one of the stories' descriptions the author thanks the artist for an image. When I looked inside the generated epubs I found nonfunctional image files, and checking one of them out revealed that it was actually an HTML file that had been renamed as a .jpg instead. Apparently the authors mis-linked the images and FFDL choked when it tried to process them. |

@FaceDeer - Do you use "no_image_processing: true"? Because that's the only way I can replicate this issue.
You're right, it's an obscure little corner case. But it's pretty easy to put another try/except around the set_cover call and that seems to handle it. At least as far as calibre metadata update goes. If you run with "no_image_processing: true", then you have to live with the occasional bad source image in your epub. Please make sure that the attached version fixes the problem for you. UPDATE Apr 25, 2013 - Remove obsolete beta versions Last edited by JimmXinu; 04-25-2013 at 11:47 PM.

I do use that. I see how I missed finding that in my search for the settings responsible, I commented out the fimfiction section of my personal.ini but left the global stuff like that alone. Sorry about the incomplete repro steps for an obscure bug like this, hope it wasn't too much extra trouble tracking it down.
I don't mind having corrupted source data downloaded and saved like that, it's easy enough to remove later if I notice it and it's a bother. Better than trying to recover from corrupted *processed* data if I discover it once the original source is no longer online. I'll give the attached version a spin. Edit: Yup, it works. Thanks!

I just started trying to get some stories off of AO3 and I have a couple questions.
I understand that AO3 has a few extra metadata entries. So, I created a few new columns and added this to my personal ini settings: Code:
[archiveofourown.org] ## AO3 adapter defines a few extra metadata entries. extra_valid_entries:fandoms,freefromtags,ao3categories fandoms_label:Fandoms freefromtags_label:Freeform Tags ao3categories_label:AO3 Categories custom_column_settings: fandoms=>#newfandoms, r freefromtags=>#newfftags, r ao3categories=>#ao3categories, r My other question has to do with changing the metadata in other columns. I had no problem changing the characters and category to the way I wanted it. However, when I tried to the same to the relationships metadata, it would not change. Here's an edited version of my code (I cut out some of the entries in the fandom and characters section as those worked fine): Code:
#fandom category=>The Hobbit \(2012\)=>LOTR.Hobbit category=>The Hobbit - J. R. R. Tolkien=>LOTR.Hobbit #characters characters=>^Ori - Character$=>Ori&&category=>LOTR #relationships relationships=>Bilbo Baggins=>Book/Comics.LOTR.\1 relationships=>Dwalin/=>Book/Comics.LOTR.\1 I've tried with and without the '/' at the end of the metadata I want to change. I also tried combining the two by using a parenthesis Code:
relationships=>(Bilbo Baggins|Dwalin)=>Book.Comics.LOTR\1 |

Thanks, when I looked in the custom columns tab it said Relationships. I thought I might have messed that up. After I cut out the extra valid entries and changed relationships to ships, I'm getting an invalid group reference. |
