I can download a new chapter for 1 story fine, then the next time it will blank out old chapters, then the next time it will be fine again etc...
I only download from FanFiction.net & only 1 story at a time/per day.
Today I downloaded Chapter 7 for a story & when I opened the epub chapters 1-6 were now blank. I had to re-download the whole story again.
Is there anyway to fix this issue? I'd rather not have to download the whole story each time a chapter is added.

That's rather odd. Are you doing anything to the epubs in between? Converting, Polishing, editing? Have you customized your CSS or HTML in FFDL's personal.ini?
There are a few things you could do to help figure this out.
Next time you go to do updates, run calibre from a command line as "calibre-debug -g", then after you see this problem again, copy the debug output from the command line window and post it here.
It would be helpful for me to see one of the epubs with blank chapters. Next time it happens, please save the epub and post it here or some where else I can see it.
It would be even more helpful for me to see the epub
before the problem happens, too. But to do that, you'd have to save a copy before updating every time.
