If you look in defaults.ini (see the personal.ini tab) and look in the [base_xenforoforum] section, there are some other settings you might be interested in. And you can change settings for individual stories by putting sections in personal.ini with the story URL(short form), for example, I have:

Thank you for the tips. I just tried it out and it works wonders. One thread though seems to have problems

After checking the index, the downloaded epub was missing several indexed posts (Interlude: Maria Remembers, Zandri Raid Pt. 2-9). After checking the urls posted in the index, I noticed that they used a different url syntax: forums.spacebattles.com/goto/post?idpostnumber#post-postnumber.
