Now this isn't a requirement for me but is there anyway to give an author's URL and have the plugin get all stories by that author? If not, do you have a recommendation on how to get all those URLs into the plugin without copying and pasting each unique one?

Thanks!
The method I use needs Firefox and a plugin called downthemall!. I open the page I want to download from in Firefox and then right click and choose the downthemall option. The window will list all the urls on the page. I then use the filter option at the bottom of the downthemall window. Queue up the selected links, a new window appears. Highlight all the links. Right click again, export the links to a txt file. I usually delete the links from the queue window after exporting, because I don't need them any longer. I then open the txt, copy all or a portion of the urls and then open up the "download new" window in FFDL. It sounds difficult, but it's easy and way faster than copy pasting one by one.

I downloaded a 89 part series this way from AO3.
