Hi,

I ran across something odd recently.

I was following a story that was a WIP and at some point when it was still in-progress I used the Generate Cover plugin to add a cover picture and I used Polish books to embed the picture into the story.

When I updated the story the embedded image disappeared. To fix this, I re-added the cover and used Polish Books again. The result is that a 43 chapter story was cut down to 20 chapters.

It appears that for stories that are being updated it's a bad idea to add the Cover image too soon because once the story is complete the cover image is lost and if you try and add it again you lose chapters from the story. I'm not sure if this is a Fanfiction Downloader problem, a Polish Books issue, or Generate Cover problem.

Fanfiction Downloader is working fine in terms of updating the story, though I'm not sure why the cover is removed? Or if that's normal?

Sorry if I posted this question in the wrong place. I thought maybe I'm not the only one that is following stories in Calibre that are in-progress and someone else may have run into this problem before.

I'd appreciate any and all advice,
Thanks
