For example, my library already has the story:

https://www.fanfiction.net/s/9065703/1/

Then I try to download:

http://archiveofourown.org/works/706971

I get asked if I want to change the story url and I say yes. Almost all the metadata changes, including the author url. However, the identifier or story url does not change. So if I try to select the story and update, it tries to update from the wrong site.

Any idea why the story url isn't changing?
I just tested it with those two exact stories. It continues to work fine for me. Some possibilities:
  1. The URL isn't updated until it's finished downloading from the new source and you've clicked Yes to 'Proceed with updating your library'. Are you waiting until after that to look?
  2. It's not going to update the URL if you have Ids set to 'New Only' on the Standard Columns tab.
  3. It's not going to update if you have it set to not update calibre data after download..
